A Christian hip-hop rapper and composer, <a href="spotify:artist:6fOMl44jA4Sp5b9PpYCkzz">NF</a> is the stage name of Nate Feuerstein from Gladwin, Michigan. Feuerstein endured a hardship-filled childhood in which his parents divorced, his mother's boyfriend physically abused him, and his mother eventually killed herself. Music was his escape, and he began recording songs on a karaoke machine, with instrumentals on one microphone and his raps in the other. Placing second in a nationwide Fine Arts Festival rap competition in 2008, and first in Michigan the following year, he independently released a debut album, Moments, in 2010. The album attracted the attention of Xist Music, which signed him to a recording deal in 2012, by which time Feuerstein had taken on the stage name <a href="spotify:artist:6fOMl44jA4Sp5b9PpYCkzz">NF</a>. The label announced the release of an EP that same year, but it never appeared, and <a href="spotify:artist:6fOMl44jA4Sp5b9PpYCkzz">NF</a> and Xist parted ways. <a href="spotify:artist:6fOMl44jA4Sp5b9PpYCkzz">NF</a> spent the next two years looking for a label and working with local producer <a href="spotify:artist:73jlPRxT7z5xk29sMqFDjU">Tommee Profitt</a> in his studio; they came up with the song "Wake Up," which convinced <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Capitol+Christian+Music+Group%22">Capitol Christian Music Group</a> to sign him. <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22CMG%22">CMG</a> released a six-song (including a Manny Marroquin remix of "Wake Up") self-titled EP late in the summer of 2014. ~ Steve Leggett, Rovi
