Nonchalant – 5 O’Clock (1996) Remember this one? One song and suddenly you’re back with your friends, cruising through the city, windows down, and this track on repeat. Some songs don’t age—they just take you back. 🔥🎶 Produced by B.L.A.K. Productions, 5 O’Clock became one of 1996’s biggest hip-hop hits, reaching No.1 on the US Hot Rap Singles chart and earning Gold certification. Even though Nonchalant never matched its success again, this laid-back classic remains one of the defining female hip-hop records of the ’90s. 🎧 Listen to the full track in our Crates Don’t Lie Spotify playlist. Link in bio. Follow us for daily Old School Hip Hop classics, forgotten gems, and timeless beats. #Nonchalant #5OClock #90sHipHop #HipHopClassics #CratesDontLie

Swipe for excitement ✨ And just like that, that’s a wrap on the fourth iteration of New Voices. Huge congratulations to this fantastic cohort, who applied with a short film idea and took part in a journey of mentorship, script development and more, culminating in a pitch to their peers, the NETWORK team, and Ti from Film Hub South West. We’re so grateful to have been part of each project’s development and can’t wait to see what you do next! New Voices wouldn’t be possible without our brilliant partners, so thank you to @blakwavepro, @lbl_films and @bristolafproductions. Thanks also to @bristolschoolofacting and @aardmananimations for providing incredible days for the cohort, and of course to everyone who attended our celebration last night.
