After setting the world alight with “Gangsta” last year, Darkoo may well have another hit on her hands as she presents another silky smooth Afrobeats bubbler. “Kryptonite (Tough Times Never Last)” picks up the relaxed party vibe that made “Gangsta” such a hit and doubles it with a laid-back saxophone melody that should surely guarantee this […]
Sam Wills — a name you’ll know from his collaborations with Tom Misch and Jordan Rakei, as well as his writing for Jorja Smith — has spent much of the lockdown period tucked away in his home studio, putting the finishing touches to his debut album (due early next year), and today sees the release […]
Enigmatic singer and multi-instrumentalist c. racha may not be a name you’re entirely familiar with (besides a quiet Insta page, he has pretty much zero social media presence), but that’s all about to change this year. Today he presents the visuals for the latest single from his debut project, EP1, itself a primer for an album slated for […]
Now that Disclosure are officially back from their hiatus — first signaled with the surprise Ecstasy EP and then cemented with news of their new album ENERGY — the Lawrence brothers have just dropped off visuals for their new single, “My High” with Aminé and Slowthai.

Unlike his last project, Nice While It Lasted promises a much more upbeat tone and to get us all in the mood he’s […]
West London rhymer Knucks has been on an almighty run since day one. Even when he dropped 2014’s Killmatic in his teens, he was by no means new to writing and rapping, having started at just 12 years old. All these years later and he’s practically a veteran, but he’s by no means resting on his laurels. Ahead […]
Today marks the release of “Scorpio’s Letter”, the third single from reggae three-piece Taste Of Pluto. Hailing from the Caribbean, the trio consists of Dominca-born singer Navy, and Barbados-born Tyler and Marwin (who also have ties to North America and Sweden, respectively), with influences that span multiple genres including reggae, hip-hop, soul and beyond. Despite having only […]
South African musician and dancer Moonchild Sanelly is already well known on her home turf for her larger than life personality and a sound that while influenced by gqom, is still worlds apart from it. It should come as no surprise then that given such unique output she’s become an increasingly sought-after collaborator — the likes of […]
Following on from previous Latin-licked offerings “Shippuden” and “Pull Up“, Harlem Spartans rapper Blanco returns with new guitar-led single “Memphis”. Blanco’s raspy flow comes to life on AB On The Beats’ Afro-Latin-tinged production as he shares the moves he’s making in his quest to secure the bag. The ‘Blanco Wave’ is there for all to see in the accompanying visuals, too, as […]
Earlier this year, we were greeted with the exciting news that Kamaal Williams would be returning with a new album, Wu Hen.
