Philadelphia-born artist NP55 is keeping the summer heat coming with his highly anticipated new single, “Sum Special,” set to release July 11. Sampling the timeless voice of Tamia, this track blends nostalgic R&B vibes with NP55’s signature emotional storytelling, creating a soulful anthem that’s both heartfelt and replay-worthy.
At just 23 years old, NP55—real name Nathan Pettus Jr.—is quickly making waves in the music scene. The artist, who began his musical journey earlier this year, has already captured attention with his debut single “19120,” a personal ode to growing up in Philly. His sound is rooted in pain, passion, and purpose—driven in part by the memory of his late friend Preece, whose belief in his talent continues to fuel his rise.
Now under the wing of Mouye Management, NP55 is proving that consistency and authenticity can turn a dream into momentum. With over 2.3K Instagram followers and a growing stream count, he’s building a movement with each release.
“Sum Special” isn’t just another R&B track—it’s a modern-day love letter layered with introspection and vibe. Whether you’re a fan of classic samples or discovering NP55 for the first time, this release promises to connect on a real level.
Stream “Sum Special” on all platforms July 11—and stay tuned, because NP55 is just getting started.
