Audrey Nuna’s debut EP A Liquid Breakfast is a trap-tinged diary of the rising star’s last 18 months. Written while driving around the suburbs of New Jersey, where Nuna was born and raised, the 10-track project marries rolling 808s and smooth, digitised beats to lyrics that read like journal entries. It’s a harmonious mix that offers us a glimpse into the 22-year-old’s inner world, complete with hushed raps of student life and playful verses about dim sums.

Elsewhere, NiNE8 affiliate Biig Piig drops an intimate EP, Mdou Moctar, AKA the shred star of the Sahara, releases a new album, and Japanese four-piece CHAI make the ultimate comfort record.
