The last few years have given Digga D plenty to celebrate. His career’s back on track and doing better than ever and his life, in general, seems to be on the up. Hardly surprising then that he’s dropping feel-good bangers like “Energy”. Digga hasn’t gone soft by any stretch, but this new tune feels like he’s […]
Jords, we’re told, has big things planned for this year. It was only last year that he released the Swings & Roundabouts four-tracker, but the work never stops and today he’s announcing that he’ll be releasing his debut album this year. Beyond that, he’s keeping tight-lipped about the title and release date, but he has just dropped off […]
At the tail end of last month, RV released his third full-length solo project, Inconspicuous—a 10-track collection that arrived without a shred of fat on it. Now he’s back with a deluxe version that features two extra tracks: “DIY Freestyle” and “Guilty”. “DIY Freestyle” was teased with a studio-set visual last month, but little more was heard until […]
This time last month, Krept & Konan came storming back into our lives with “Dat Way”, a big, up-front banger that saw them reunite with “Robbery Remix” co-conspirator Abra Cadabra for the duo’s first bit of new music in three years. That was a welcome enough gift as it was, but now they’re back with an […]
Quite often when we write these lists, we’ll half-complain about how much of a struggle it is and woe-is-me-I’ve-been-tearing-my-hair-out, but the truth is this process was actually the most fun it’s ever been this year. A big part of that is how diverse music has been in 2022. Diversity, to some extent, has always been […]
North London drill star Headie One has just dropped a massively ambitious new project called No Borders: European Compilation Project. The set has been ruminating for some time now, gradually taking shape as he made his way across the continent, building relationships, investigating all the different scenes, and getting a feel for their respective takes on drill. We […]
It’s barely been a month since K-Trap released The Last Whip II, a star-studded 19-tracker that became an instant fan favourite and a standout for the year, but he’s already back with a big A-list remix of Trapo highlight “Warm”. When the UK drill star announced the remix’s imminent arrival on Tuesday, he simply posted the artwork with […]
Following last month’s WIZE-produced, grime-meets-drill drop “Namaste”, UK rap newcomer Zino Vinci is back to show us more of what he’s capable of with his new single, “CEO Of The Friendship Group”. While the song title is a play on the much-discussed meme about being “the leader of your friendship group”, the lyrical content takes listeners on a journey […]
Between drill’s hi-hat triplets and Jersey Club’s frenetic rhythms, it was only a matter of time before someone started to stitch the two together. Producers have been playing around with that combo for a little while, to varying degrees of success, but Nemzzz’s new tune “ABC” might be the best example we’ve heard yet. Producer Young […]
K-Trap fans are in a golden age right now. It was only six months ago that we got his blockbuster Joints project with Blade Brown and a year ago that he dropped off his last solo venture Trapo, but he’s already back with another full-length, The Last Whip II. It’s an unparalleled level of productivity and so far the quality […]
