Nova Rockafeller Is About To Blow Your Mind

Possessing the lyrical prowess of Charli Baltimore, and the visual creativity of Kreayshawn, Nova Rockafeller is something special.

Born in Canada, raised in Negril, Jamaica, and having bounced around America, including stops in New York and LA, Nova Rockafeller, who is of Ukrainian, English and French descent, realizes she’ll initially be lumped in the “white girl rapper” category, but according to her that’s OK, “as long as they say ‘rapper.’”

Nova Rockafeller, first and foremost, is about her skills, which is something some may not initially realize when they take a look at her unique fashion sense that includes custom made jewelry from her Toys On Chains line, and duct tape modified thrift store t-shirts that she plans to market as a modified street wear line “so girls of all body types can modify them.” She is imaginative, she is colorful, and she wants to rap circles around her competition.

Right now Nova Rockafeller’s video for her single “Call Me (BATMAN)” is blowing up on YouTube, and the major labels are starting to come calling. I caught up with her while she was taking a break from filming her next video, and she told me about her past, the meaning behind some of her lyrics, and why she decided to create a t-shirt that says “I Fucked Her” over a picture of herself. Nova Rockafeller also discussed the very strange tradition she has after meetings with record labels, and the kind of date she desperately wants to be asked out on (hint: it involves a corsage).
