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 […]

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 […]
Youngs Teflon continues his hot streak in 2022 with a new remix featuring Giggs. “Da Codes” sees Hollowman jump on Youngs’ “Bar Codes”, adding his signature flair to proceedings. The stripped-back, piano-led instrumental from Louis Aura serves as the perfect backdrop for the South Londoners to drop their usual heat. The track adds to Young Teflon’s fantastic run this […]

And as an added bonus for fans, it also features his Breaking Bad-themed hit “Los Pollos Hermanos” from a few years ago. Alongside the previously released singles, the set […]
It’s the eve of Youngs Teflon’s launch party for All Eyes On Me Against The World, and Storm Eunice is raging outside the Just Hype store on London’s Carnaby Street, where it is being held. Luckily for Youngs, Eunice’s tantrum didn’t stop it from being a successful night—one filled with good vibes and even greater music—and the room got to properly […]
It’s been over a decade since Youngs Teflon kicked off his Call Of Duty mixtape series with its seminal first volume and a good nine years since its follow-up, Call Of Duty 2: Riot Season. But this Friday, the South London rapper returns with two new tracks from a long-awaited third volume. The first of those is “Alpo” with […]
2007-2014: UK rap’s golden years. Before the arrival of J Hus, Dave, Fredo, and the entire drill scene, the likes of K Koke, Blade Brown and Youngs Teflon were flooding the UK streets with lyrical heat, setting the blueprint for what would essentially become British gangsta rap or—for those that know—simply ‘road rap’.
