Seventeen-year-old genre-morphing wordsmith Nevi Outlyr delivers a whirlwind of self-aware bars and dizzying emotion in his latest single, “Stuck.” Blending experimental hip-hop with hints of soul, jazz, and a pinch of “toxic positivity,” Stuck captures what it feels like to be spiraling inward, while laughing at yourself on the way down.

Nevi’s flow is casual but calculated, walking a fine line between vulnerability and wit. “I feel like a character stuck in a Seinfeld rerun,” he raps, and that sums up the track’s emotional palette perfectly: awkward, comedic, strangely profound. Over off-kilter production that flirts with lo-fi keys and syncopated percussion, he confronts the tension between self-doubt and self-belief—never leaning too far in either direction.

Fans of André 3000, Smino, or early Chance the Rapper will find Nevi’s offbeat cadence and introspective charm instantly familiar, yet refreshingly new. Stuck doesn’t offer clean answers—it sits with the mess and makes music out of it. For the overthinkers and the emotionally elastic, Nevi Outlyr is one to watch.
