In support of his recent third album, UGLY, Northampton music rebel slowthai took the new batch of guitar-driven, punk-inspired bangers out for a series of small, intimate shows as part of the Jägermeister Best Night Of Your Life pub tour.  Fans in Sunderland, Blackpool, Milton Keynes, London, Bath and Northampton were given the chance to grab a ticket for just £1 (and […]

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 […]

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 […]

Back in 2018, streamer MularJuice made the leap from vlogging and content creation to the studio booth, steadily pushing out a series of singles that switched between Auto-Tuned trap and bassy drill cuts. He maintained a consistent release schedule in the years that followed, but last year was a comparatively quiet one with just two singles—“Loyalty” […]

Following on from his debut project, I Found Paradise In Hell, in 2020, South London’s Kasien is back with his new mixtape, Don’t Let The Devil In. At 10 tracks, it’s almost as streamlined as its predecessor and taps into many of the same themes—specifically hedonism and the darker places it can take you. Operating at the […]

After a pretty hectic couple of years, including a multi-year run of well-received singles and live performances, the last few months were deservedly quiet and restful for ENNY. As it turns out, this brief pause was partly a much-need rest and recalibration, but also a spell of writer’s block. That all came to an end […]

Last year, Manchester’s newest rap prospect Nemzzz had a run of hits that was beyond formidable. He dropped five faultless solo singles—which included “ABC”, the Jersey-Drill hybrid that had everyone talking—and in between those he also made two very well-aimed collabs, one with TikTok wunderkind KidWild and the other with Knucks. He really didn’t put a foot wrong […]

Two years ago to the day, Abra Cadabra released the Mixed Emotions EP, a surprising four-piece that revealed a new, more melodic side to the North London rapper. Now, Abra returns with its sequel, but this time around he’s found more of a balance between the rough and the smooth.  Mixed Emotions II was signposted yesterday with the release […]

With his new album, UGLY, just around the corner (March 3, to be exact), Northampton punk-rhymer slowthai has teamed up with Jägermeister for a six-date tour of some of his favourite boozers around the country. The Jägermeister Best Night Of Your Life pub tour kicks off at the end of this month, running through towns that tend to get overlooked […]
