He just wrapped a tour along the west coast with JamTheHype, sharing the stage with fellow artists Je'kob, Spec and V. Rose. Further tour dates will be announced.

ABOUT MANSION:
NF's musical story is full of lyrical vulnerability and is complimented by raw energy, and his brand new LP continues the theme that stemmed from his EP debut. Mansion is comprised of songs based from his real life struggles, including being abused as a child, struggling with anger issues, and losing his mother to a drug overdose.

"Music has always been a part of what's going on with my life, emotionally, relationally, what I'm dealing with and what I'm struggling with," NF shares.

Explaining the story behind the album title, "My house is a mansion," NF explains. "The mansion is my mind and represents my thoughts and my struggles, and each room is a song filled with words and experiences of my life with the walls covered in lyrics. Every song you hear is an emotion and something I've been through or going through when I write it. I'm just allowing people to see the things in my mind that not everybody wants to talk about but where a lot of people can relate."

The pre-order for Mansion launches on all digital outlets on March 17, which will include the first single, "Intro" followed by "Wait," releasing March 24. Special guests who are featured on the album are Fleurie appearing on "Mansion", Jeremiah Carlson of The Neverclaim on "I'll Keep On," and "Can You Hold Me" shares the vocals of labelmate Britt Nicole.
