Noname Gypsy
Yaneisha Franklin a.k.a. Sasha Go Hard started rapping at 11 years old, hitting the Internet jackpot with her self-produced single “Why They Mad.” Her affiliation with Chief Keef’s Chicago-based GBE crew shows in her hard-edged raps and monstrous sound, but she’s got a style all her own. She’s earned herself some big name fans along the way, and they’re now collaborating with her, including Diplo: he produced her Round 3 mixtape, which features guest appearances by both Le1f and Kreayshawn.
In the middle of Chance the Rapper’s Acid Rap track “Lost” was a memorable verse by an up-and-coming Chicago rapper named Noname Gypsy. The 22-year-old’s real name is Fatimah Warner and despite her nom de guerre, she’s making a very big name for herself with her laidback flow and poetic lyrics. Think MC Lyte meets Lauryn Hill by way of Gwendolyn Brooks. While her debut mixtape Telefone hasn’t been released yet, she has the seasoned poise of a veteran.
