  • How [@stormzy] Glastonbury is important for Black British identity

    “Black is beautiful, Black is excellent” Dave on ‘Black’ It was fitting that Stormzy brought out Dave as he became the first Black British male rapper to headline Glastonbury. Simultaneously, Stormzy also became the second youngest to headline the prestigious festival at 25 with only a 24-year old David Bowie being younger when he headlined…

  • Review: Knucks [@Knucks_music] switches up the EP structure on long-awaited project ‘NRG 105’

    NRG 105 is a well-suited title to Knucks highly anticipated EP. The artist definitely kept the energy at 105 on this one. Knucks began making waves with his smooth but catchy track ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’. Following up from this, he dropped a slew of singles before a long patch of radio silence. He then announced…

  • [@A2Artist] Has Been ‘SMOKEDOUT’ Ahead of the Release of All Spill

    The elusive A2 is back again with ‘SMOKEDOUT’. After he released a slew of projects last year, A2 took a slight break from releasing music, but clearly not recording. ‘SMOKEDOUT’ is very upbeat for an A2 track but it’s a nice change of pace. Having teased that he has a new project coming soon titled All…

  • [@khalildevonne] Is Back After a Musical Hiatus with ‘cdg’

    After months of teasing us with hints of him working in the studio, Khalil Devonne is finally back with ‘cdg’. The last time we heard from Khalil he was telling us about the ‘Finer Things’  in his groundbreaking summer anthem. But since then it’s been radio silence from the artist, despite his socials showing he’d…

  • The ‘6 Lords’ [@Scribz6ix7even] and [@MentalKOJ] Announce Themselves On New Track

    The track ‘6 Lords’  gives us a link up that doesn’t happen as often as it should and much like its predecessors, it shows that this duo has amazing chemistry. The first thing to mention about ‘6 Lords’ is the beat, Carns Hill is actually a godsend to a lot of artists and his track record speaks…

  • ‘No Banter’ on this one as [@Mercston] & [@Wretch32] link up

    Friends and collaborators, Wretch 32 and Mercston link up to let us know there’s ‘No Banter‘ on this one. When ‘No Banter’ was teased a few days prior to it’s release I was intrigued but skeptical. Not because I doubt either Wretch or Mercston or their ability to collaborate, but because of our musical climate. Whilst…

  • [@Knucks_music] makes his return with ‘Rice & Stew’

    After what has felt like an extremely long hiatus, Knucks triumphantly comes back with the culturally inspired ‘Rice & Stew’. If this isn’t the most Nigerian thing in the world I don’t know what is. Yes, Knucks is actually rapping about that kind of rice and stew. It’s a metaphor many BAME households can relate…
