Boosted by seven new tracks, the collection was rereleased as 1992 Deluxe on UK indie bastion Rough Trade Records the following year. Named for her birth year, Nokia’s hard-hitting 2016 mixtape 1992 draws on nostalgia and childhood experiences.
She later ran away to live with her grandmother and father in New York City’s Lower East Side. Inspired by fashion, ’90s nostalgia, and goth and rave culture, rapper Princess Nokia makes genre-agnostic music that confronts issues of race, gender, and sexuality.
