Following his involvement in Ed Sheeran’s latest No. 1 with Stormzy, Manchester’s newest star, Aitch, has released his eagerly-awaited AitcH20 EP. Anticipation has been high for the rapper’s new project — previous singles “Already” with Tyreezy and “Taste (Make It Shake)” fuelled the hype that was sparked with the announcement last month. Elsewhere on the 8-track tape, highlights come from new […]

Last week, West London pair WSTRN dropped off their brand new full-length, WSTRN Season, Vol. 2, a triumphant return we described as “the perfect follow-up to their 2018 EP, Double 3AK“. Like that project and the 2016 debut Season, guest spots were kept to a minimum; the handful of collaborations that did appear were only of the A-list […]

Manchester rapper Aitch is known for matching tongue-twisting flows with razor-sharp wit and an ear for infectious production. Continuing his 2019 hot streak, he unleashes latest track “Taste (Make It Shake)”. In a similar vein to 2018’s “Trust Me“, “Taste” is Aitch in his truest element, laying rhymes down at relentless pace over hypnotic sonics. At the top of […]

Toronto’s Tre Mission has dropped his sophomore album Orphan Black, the follow-up to his 2012 debut Stigmata. Following on from “Hennessy Pool” a few months back, the grime MC and rapper set the countdown for Orphan Black in motion. A deeply personal and experimental effort, the title track, a three-minute stream of consciousness, sees Tre Mission set the tone for the rest of […]

After teasing fans with the announcement that he would be removing the mask and showing his face to the world, rapper K-Trap finally made good on that promise when he dropped off the No Magic tape and the visuals for the project’s latest single, “Big Mood”. Even drill haters had to concede that No Magic is a crowning […]

South London rap empress Flohio is currently carving out wins abroad on her European tour and making waves at international festivals up and down the continent. Somehow, in between all of that, she’s found time to drop a new single with visuals to boot. “Hell Bent” not only continues the path forged with the Wild Yout EP […]

Octavian has just dropped his new mixtape, Endorphins—the follow-up to his much-lauded SPACEMAN tape—and it’s another batch of experimental, wavey cuts. The Essie Gang MC has recruited a host of talent from the US and UK, further bridging the gap in the soundscape between the two countries and target global domination. Endorphins, a 12-track set, drafts in Theophilus London (“Feel It”), Abra (“My Head”), Smokepurpp (“Take It […]

London rappers Still Greedy, Skengdo x AM have graced us with visuals for their brag-heavy new single “All On Me”. Evidently living their best lives, all three are surrounded dancing and drinking, accompanying the equally confident bars. Decked-out in designer and heavily iced out, the video has reached over 100,000 views in less than 48 hours—a sign that this […]

Lady Lykez and producer Scratcha DVA probably have one of the oldest friendships in the scene, having first met back in 2007. But over a decade later and the pair have only just worked together for the first time, with the latter producing the former’s latest EP, Muhammad Ali. The four-track project brings together all the elements […]

Midlands MC Trillary Banks welcomes you all to her surroundings with new visuals for “No Place Like Home”. Taken from her latest project Vote 4 Trillary, which includes the dancehall-infused bangers “Come Over Mi Yard” and “Peppers & Spice”, this Tone Legend-produced joint opens up another side of Trillary’s repertoire, menacing and straight-talking with bags of confidence in the package too.  […]
