Editor's note

NAV's moody Toronto sound and candid writing

The Rexdale rapper built a career on hazy production and introspective tracks about his own ups and downs.

For a good sense of NAV's lane, try 'Taking Chances' or 'Tension'. They're both pretty representative of his moody, introspective style.

NAV's music captures a specific Toronto mood that resonated beyond the city. Songs like 'Codeine' and 'Taking Chances' established his signature style, hazy production paired with candid writing about his experiences. He's maintained that approach through records like 'Demons Protected by Angels' in 2022, keeping his sound rooted even as he worked with names like Drake and Travis Scott.

He started making music that pulled from Toronto's hip-hop scene, with early tracks like 'Myself' gaining traction online around 2017. His debut album 'Reckless' landed at number six on the Billboard 200 that same year, followed by records like 'Perfect Timing' and 'Bad Habits' through the late 2010s.

Archive material and source history

NAV (Navraj Singh Goraya) came up in Rexdale, a neighborhood in Toronto's west end. He grew up in a Punjabi Sikh household and started making music that pulled from the city's hip-hop scene, with early tracks like 'Myself' gaining traction online around 2017.

His debut album 'Reckless' landed at number six on the Billboard 200 that same year. He followed it with records like 'Perfect Timing' in 2018, 'Bad Habits' in 2019, and 'Good Intentions' in 2020. Songs such as 'Taking Chances' and 'Codeine' reflect the moody, introspective style that became his calling card.

NAV has worked with Drake, Travis Scott, and Lil Baby on various tracks. In 2019, he faced accusations of ghostwriting for other artists, which he denied. His lyrics have drawn criticism at times, but he's maintained they come from personal experience.

He put out 'Demons Protected by Angels' in 2022, with tracks like 'Lost Me' featuring RealestK and 'Tension' continuing in his established vein. The music stays rooted in Toronto's sound, built around hazy production and candid writing about his own ups and downs.
