Naeem Juwan
Music Residency
It’s a new moment for Naeem Juwan, who, in his former incarnation as Spank Rock, has already been rocking the global underground party scene for well over a decade. While Spank Rock was born out of his tight crew of friends and collaborators from the American Northeast––primarily his dynamic with producer Alex Epton (XXXChange) which was expanded and reinforced by Baltimore’s Sankofa Drummers, DJs Devlin and Darko, and rapper Amanda Blank––Juwan’s new solo venture marries extensive travels, experiences, relationships, and a growing drive to communicate deeper and more personal ideas, all leading to the engagingly eclectic genre blending aesthetic that weaves through his new album “Startisha”.
