Looks like Queens rapper N.O.R.E is now the artist formerly known as.  He was born Victor, became N.O.R.E, and now switched it to P.A.P.I. (There are a lot of names so try and follow me; lol)

Although he has been on a hiatus in the world of Hip Hop, N.O.R.E, who is now P.A.P.I., is about to make a comeback!  P.A.P.I. is preparing to release an album this year, entitled ‘Student of the Game’.  P.A.P.I says, “I wanted to do something totally different for the album,”.  

Here is the explanation of the name change…

 “My mother doesn’t even call me Victor, my father has never called me Victor, my teachers didn’t even call me Victor. My name in Lefrak City and my name in Queens is actually P.A.P.I., it’s not even N.O.R.E.  I like to have my acronyms poppin’ so P.A.P.I. is Power Always Proves Intelligence, he revealed.”

On Sunday, P.A.P.I is releasing the video for a track on his new album, called “Tadow”.  The track “Tadow”,  features 2 Chainz, French Montana, and Pusha T.  With the choice of artists on this track, he is headed in the right direction for a good comeback.

So don’t forget, it is no longer Victor, Noreaga, or N.O.R.E., he is now P.A.P.I. !
