N7 & Pwap

Hailing from Oklahoma City, the rap duo N7 & Pwap earned notice for their nimble and rapid-fire delivery, launching into wider view during 2018 through the widely streamed track "Spazzin'."

N7, born Isaiah Favela and self-styled the "best Mexican rapper in the world," first crossed paths with Deontrae Boyd, known as Pwap, while both were still in high school; the classmates soon began trading rhymes. Determined to enter the industry, they issued a series of online tracks—"On God," "Doubt tha Gang," "No Hook," and "Rackman"—that cultivated a devoted local audience through their brisk, back-and-forth cadence and refusal of Auto-Tune, producing a faintly vintage texture. The 2018 release "Spazzin'" became their breakthrough, amassing millions of streams. They followed with the singles "Big West," "Big Nose," and "Hold On," all included on the 2020 debut album Apply Pressure.
