Seth Narley is a Bronx rapper who puts real life at the center of his music. After being around music from a young age, he started taking rap seriously in the early 2010s, pulling influence from artists like Lil Wayne, Curren$y, and Fabolous while building a sound that’s fully his own. On Welcome to the Show, Narley leans into storytelling, lifestyle rap, and confidence, offering a clearer picture of who he is beyond a single track. In this interview, he talks about his journey, creative process, collaborations, and what’s coming next.
When did you first realize rap was something you wanted to pursue seriously?
I was always around music, but I knew I wanted to take it serious and pursue it around 2011 -2012.
Who were your biggest musical influences growing up?
Growing up I listened to a lot of different genres of music, but my main influences would have to be late 90’s Early 2000s Jay Z, Lil Wayne’s Carter 2/ mixtape Era, Curren$y mixtape era and Fabolous
How would you describe your style to someone hearing you for the first time?
I’ll describe it as storytelling lifestyle rap, aka Chanel Rap
Which song from ‘Welcome to the Show’ are you most proud of, and why?
I would say I’m most proud of “Mr.3000”, it was one of the last songs I did on the tape and the fastest ones I did. It’s one of the few songs I wish I made longer the pocket I was in was elite.
What was your experience like working with Halal Seeds on the new project?
My experience working wit Halal was good man, I rock wit bro even though we didn’t really link in person. Everything was set up through my boy Ant (BootleggerClub) via IG and group text but we gon lock in in person soon work on some more tapes.
‘Welcome to the Show’ feels very intentional as a title. What does that phrase represent for you at this stage in your career?
Yeah it was very intentional- every project title I choose is usually tied in to something that correlates with my personal life. With this one it’s just a lot surrounded it, at first it was titled ‘SDE’ (Sports Drugs Envy), an homage to Camron’s LP- but I went a different direction with “Welcome to the Show”. I played baseball and basketball growing up so I used the title based off the video game lol, and feeling like I’m a walking show since a kid. Anywhere I’m at eyes were/ are usually on me.
When listeners hear ‘Welcome to the Show’ front to back, what do you hope they understand about you that they might not catch from a single track?
I just hope they understand and appreciate the craft and the time I take coming up with some of the slick shit I be saying. I’m not tryna sound like anyone, or look like anyone overall, I’m just writing my life stories in memoir form.
You’re building not just music, but a larger creative universe with Bootleggers Club. How does that vision influence the way you move artistically?
So with Bootleggers it just pushed me to drop more and raise the bar on my behalf- get better, get flier, more creative. I really wanna put the name in rafters after it’s said and done bro (Anthony) really. Believe in me so it’s only right I rep it the right way aka (MorkA$$) lol that’s inside joke.
What’s next for you in 2026 in music?
I got a whole lot for 2026 far as projects. I got some coming with a few different producers. I’ll be dropping more in ’26 then I did in 2025 fasho. Next I’m dropping a EP With “Creestal” (@Creestal_Art), most likely first week of march.
