North London Rapper Namesbliss Shares New Project ‘Light Of Mine’
Written by SOURCE on November 26, 2021
Namesbliss—a rising rapper from Enfield, North London—has just dropped Light Of Mine, his second EP following 2018’s Style & Grace.
Hype surrounding this faith-inspired, 7-track offering had already been building thanks to well-received singles like the jazzy, drill-infused heater “Rubicon Lychee” and the R&B-UKG fusion of “Guide Me”, featuring Darah and Eyez.
Standouts on the EP include the ZCBeats-produced “Paperchase”, a skippy number bursting with drilly colloquialisms and production nods, while the penultimate track, “Strikers”, steps further into the drill sandbox but with a hat-tip to grime, as Namesbliss spits his story with poetic vim.

Produced mostly by ZCBeats and Vagrant Real Estate, Light Of Mine achieves what many would hope to accomplish in a whole album: delivering novel-worthy storytelling draped in straight-talking rhymes atop screwface-worthy beats.
