“My Dear” by Fego Navarro is a melodic blend of hip hop and jazz, creating a unique and captivating sound. The song serves as a love letter to a young woman, expressed through introspective lyrics and clever wordplay. Drawing inspiration from the legendary group A Tribe Called Quest, this track offers a mellow and smooth listening experience that will have you swaying to the rhythm both in the comfort of your living room and on the dance floor.

Fego Navarro made a documentary in which he shows the stories of people in their most vulnerable moments, there are those who have lost everything and seek refuge in the streets of La Misión.

On Wednesday, September 21, 2022, the community gathered at the historic 7 Mile House in the San Francisco Peninsula for an evening of entertainment, art, music, and powerful spoken word poetry. The Brisbane Poetry Reading and Mixer brought together local artists from Brisbane, the Bay Area, and beyond to share their creative voices and inspire the audience.

San Francisco emcee Fego Navarro recently teamed up with Bay Area brethren Dela Paz and Mali Q on Time Wonderland. The two-track EP features an alluring combination of stellar production, introspective lyrics, and fire refrains that will occupy your noggin for a cool minute.

Fego Navarro’s interest in hip hop began a young age, where he would blend his love for freestyle rapping outside church with his friends with his frequent exposure to his mother’s varied range of South American music. He’d display this melting pot of musical obsessions at local open mics, quickly making him one to notice.

Returning with the new single ‘Café Con Leche’ taken from his upcoming EP ‘Escapism’, Fego once again demonstrates his ear for an infectious groove and his flawless flow.

San Francisco hip hop artist Fego Navarro graces us with his presence and music in today's conversation, which explores big life questions through the lens of his creative process. We groove to and reflect on two songs from his recently released album Escapism which came out earlier this year. Join us as we discuss life, hip hop, and Fego's thoughts on the Nexus pillars of story, journey, beauty, space, and listening.

The last time we heard from Fego Navarro, he was chilling in the Hollywood Hills and getting artsy on some Banksy stuff. But alas, the Salvadoran-American spitter has returned to his San Franciscan stomping grounds with a brand new visual for his song, “Late Night.”

When some gain the whole world for the price of their soul. What happens when one can grab hold of the world and control, it as they see fit. We sit with The Poetic Activist, Porsche Veu as she illustrates the transformations that shaped her into the woman that leads with compassion and fearless in opposition. A conversation that inspires and illuminates.

It's the return of the Peace bearers and heart sleeve wearers. Running up and down the streets for the cardio. Our conversation leads us from the food we eat, the family we know, to the world as it is shown to us through the frame of others. Baking another episode of water and flour for the slow dough, rise with the heat and eat as needed. This is one for the soul. Stay nourished, keep going.

Survival of the fittest every day is a trial. Think you are a part of the whole and find you're a slice on another plate. All this hate can't last forever so as we endure, compassion and empathy are the ties that bind through time. Complicated present and complicated conversations. Come along as we journey to the core of our collective concerns. The variables, variations, and variety. We still ill, hopefully not symptomatic.
