Back in late July, Skepta released his All In EP, a five-track tome produced by himself and Ragz Originale with guest appearances from Kid Cudi, J Balvin and Teezee. “Eyes On Me” was one of the key highlights of the tape, straddling Skepta’s newer sound with some nods to his roots—not least the recurring “Hey!” from More Fire Crew’s “Oi!”. Directed […]

Havana Club and Skepta have reunited for another creative collaboration that sees the UK artist design his second limited-edition Havana Club 7 bottle.  Toasting to Big Smoke’s Nigerian roots, the Havana Club 7 bottle pays homage to the creative and cultural connections between Yoruba culture and Afro-Cuban spirit, continuing to channel the message of community […]

Last week, Skepta announced the release of a new project, All In, promising a couple of big-name collaborations.

The YSL crew began teasing the compilation project in spring 2020, nearly two years after the original installment arrived. Fans expected the sequel to arrive last year, either on Thugger’s Aug. 16 birthday or on Black Friday; however, we didn’t get an […]

Prior to the release of Skepta’s Nike Shox TL arriving this Thursday, leaks suggest that the Grime artist will have a new collaboration with the Swoosh coming in Spring 2020. According to py_rates, the artist’s next collab will be on the Air Tailwind V, but an early look has not yet been provided. Based on the description, the shoe is dressed in a black-based color scheme that’s […]

This year, however, “music’s biggest night” was perhaps its most controversial ever. Already on the backfoot thanks to pandemic restrictions, with no live audience and awards presented on an outdoor stage, the ceremony netted its […]
