Nippa is ready to speak from the heart. With his new single “Unfair” and the announcement of his upcoming EP Hope She Hears This, the UK R&B star embarks on what might be his most intimate chapter yet. The EP is out May 9 and already feels like a defining moment in his artistic journey.
After teasing fans online for weeks, “Unfair” lands with both emotional weight and effortless cool. Nippa’s vocals—silky but full of feeling—float over production that’s spacious and refined. It’s a breakup song, sure, but also a moment of emotional release.
“This is the most real I’ve ever been,” says Nippa. “It’s about processing what happens after love ends—when you’re still holding on to what could’ve been.”
That sense of authenticity is what’s elevated Nippa in recent months. He sold out London’s OMEARA, earned another MOBO nomination for Best R&B/Soul Act, and was just spotlighted by Billboard as a 2025 R&B Artist to Watch. With Hope She Hears This, he takes another confident step forward.
The EP moves through grief, healing, and ultimately, peace—making space for R&B that’s nostalgic, emotionally honest, and sonically modern. Whether he’s reminiscing or letting go, Nippa keeps it real.
With a clear voice and clearer vision, Nippa proves that vulnerability is a superpower. And if Hope She Hears This is what he’s been holding in, it’s definitely worth the wait.
