Background notes

Archive material and source history

N.O.R.E. came together in Queens in 1996 with Victor Santiago, Derek Hamilton, Shon Moore, and Carlos Ocasio. Their self-titled debut album arrived in 1998, and the single 'Nothin'' gave them a solid hit that year.

They followed up with albums like 'God's Favorite' in 1999 and 'Melvin Flynt - Da Hustler' in 2000. The group worked with Pharrell on the 2002 project 'N.O.R.E. and the Neptunes Present... N.O.R.E.' and later had Cassie feature on 'Baby Girl'.

Lineup changes happened over time, with Hamilton leaving and returning, and Moore departing in 2009. The original four have since reunited for shows. Songs like 'First Day Home' and 'Black Clouds' show their range from street narratives to darker themes.
