Noah23 is a Canadian-American underground hip hop artist from Guelph, Ontario. His discography consists of twenty-eight solo albums, four collaboration albums, sixteen EPs, eleven mixtapes, five compilations, three physical singles, and many guest appearances on other artists' tracks.

Labels

Noah23's first two official albums were released through his own record label Plague Language (in 2001/2). The label went on indefinite hiatus in 2004, and since then the majority of his albums have been released on Canadian sister-label Legendary Entertainment (with a Plague Language imprint), which is owned and managed by his frequent collaborator Crunk Chris. He has also released two albums and one single with German label 2nd Rec (in 2003/4), one EP and one single with short-lived Canadian label Northstar Imprint (in 2003/4), one EP with American label Vermin Street (in 2010), and one album with American label Fake Four Inc. (in 2011). Many of his albums and mixtapes in recent years have been self-released through Bandcamp, with some of these subsequently receiving physical releases via Legendary Entertainment.

Discography

In the following discography, collaboration albums are defined as full-length albums (LPs) credited to multiple vocalists. Albums credited to a vocalist/producer duo (e.g. CRUNK23 releases) are treated as solo albums. EPs, mixtapes and compilations are not differentiated on the above basis.
