The New York Times spotlighted the facetious “MOTTO,” and noted, “In his early career, NF sounded as if he was internalizing all the pressures of the world, but now he sounds free and calm, dismissing those same pressures with a shrug.”
Praising HOPE as an “often thrilling return” and “perhaps his most personal document yet,” Clash Music said,
“A record racked by self-doubt and the need to confront your expectations, the album wears its heart on its sleeve. Opening and title track ‘HOPE’ places the motto front and center: ‘What’s my definition of success? / Listening to what your heart says…’” View the visual for “HOPE”.
The album features guest appearances by Cordae on “CAREFUL” and Julia Michaels on “GONE.” AllMusic said, “[HOPE] finds the Michigan-born rapper building upon the emotional struggles that informed 2016’s Therapy Session and 2019’s The Search with a sense that there is often a light at the end of a dark tunnel.” Billboard observed, “NF remains one of the world’s biggest rappers…”
Praising the “soul-baring highlight” “HAPPY,” NME said, “he documents his ongoing mental health journey with brutal, utterly unbridled honesty.” As part of the “NME In Conversation” series, NF delves into a wide range of topics that include HOPE, fatherhood, OCD, and collaborating with Julia Michaels.

Today, multi-talented artist and one of People Magazine’s Emerging Artists Riley Clemmons has announced her long awaited third studio album, Church Pew, will be released on September 22nd via Capitol CMG. The 11-track album, co-produced with Jeff Pardo, marks a season a self-discovery for Riley.
After experiencing depression and burn out brought on by the pressures of being in the spotlight for so long, Riley spent the better part of a year reflecting and finding what brought her true joy.
The resulting body of work follows that journey and demonstrates who she is at her core. Though no stranger to the studio, Church Pew, marks the first time Riley has stepped into the role of Executive Producer.
“It feels as though my entire life has been leading up to the creation of this record” shares Riley. “With that said, this album was born from the lowest and toughest point in my life thus far. During an ongoing battle with depression and anxiety and navigating what felt like a true identity crisis, I took a step back from music and creating to live life.
I was able to pause long enough to rediscover what I loved and resonated with sonically and lyrically, as I began to allow myself the space to naturally evolve, change, and grow. Church Pew sounds and feels like my DNA. I’m ready and excited for everyone to hear this new side of my heart, artistry, and music. This chapter is going to be a special one.”
In addition to new music news, Riley released the third song from the album and its namesake, “Church Pew.” The delicate and powerful song explores all the pivotal moments that happen within a church pew. From funerals to weddings, AA meetings to general services, people hurting and people in joy, the common denominator is a pew which gives everyone a place to belong.
“Church Pew” follows the release of “Loved By You,” which has already surpassed over 1.5 million streams worldwide since its release, and “Miracle,” which is nearing 1 million streams in its first two weeks.

Riley Clemmons is a rising artist from Nashville, TN who has accumulated over half a billion global streams and 85 million YouTube video views since the beginning of her almost decade long career. After spending years refining her craft in writers’ rooms, Riley sky-rocketed onto the scene with her 2017 Capitol CMG debut single “Broken Prayers,” which has generated over 56 million global streams since its release.
Her 2018 self-titled album debut quickly entered the Billboard Heatseekers chart, debuting at No. 13. Riley released her much anticipated sophomore, Godsend, in 2021 which cemented her place as an artist to watch with accolades from Rolling Stone and People Magazine as well as performances on the 2021 SHEIN X ROCK THE RUNWAY virtual fashion show, the TODAY Show, FOX & Friends, and debut at the Grand Ole Opry.
The lead single, “Fighting for Me,” became her top performing song with 160 million worldwide streams and the track, “Keep On Hoping,” became the fastest growing single of her career, breaking Top 20 on Billboard and MediaBase Radio charts and receiving over 5 million streams in its first 8 weeks.
The follow up single “For The Good” has received over 40 million global streams to date and Billboard named her one of the Top Christian Artists for the year ending 2022. In 2021, Riley was nominated as Female Artist of the Year at the 9th Annual K-LOVE Fan Awards making her the youngest nominee in the show’s history.
An accomplished composer, performer, producer, and recording artist, Riley draws inspiration from life experiences, blending musical influences ranging from pop to classic rock to create music that is as catchy as it is relatable.
Todd Tilghman, winner of season 18 of The Voice, is sharing his personal hope with the world through “Still to Come.”
“So many songs, across genres, have been written about mountains, and mountaintops, and climbing the mountains,” the soulful country singer explains. “In ‘Still to Come,’ I hope to convey that it’s always better on the other side. I wish I could show you. But we can’t see the other side of the mountain without the climb.”
That concept is captured throughout the deeply moving lyrics: It’s not that I’m afraid the storm will last / It’s the things that might be lost along its path.
Todd reflects on those lines, “No circumstance lasts forever. I understand that. My concern was what life would look like when the storm was over. What’s the cost? But ultimately, the glory far outweighs the initial price.”
The single continues The Voice winner’s trend of consistently releasing heartfelt songs about his personal journey, his family and his deeply-held faith. It follows “Blood, Sweat & Tears” and “Dig My Grave,” both of which released earlier this year. As all of his 2023 releases prove, he’s not one to shy away from personal disclosure for the sake of connecting with listeners.

“I originally wrote ‘Still to Come’ on the heels of one of the most devastating times in my life,” Todd Tilghman admits. “I wasn’t so concerned with whether or not I’d get through it— I just really wondered how. I hung on to the scriptures: our suffering is light and temporary, and it’s working for us an eternal weight of glory. The suffering we face now is nothing compared to the glory that is still to come.”
