Premiere: Newcomer Len Can’t Let Go On UK Rave-Inspired “Solace”

Written by on July 28, 2022


After the success of his Dead End mixtape earlier this year, South London singer/rapper Len is back with visuals for his new single “Solace”.

Co-produced by Len and Blocco Beatz, the instrumental takes cues from jungle, Black UK dance music of the past, to create something wholly in the present: from the atmospheric synths to the constant pulse of the bass, Len’s signature airy vocals effortlessly glides over the beat for the win. “‘Solace’ is about the sticky position of knowing someone isn’t good for you, yet feeling like you can’t leave,” Len tells us. “It’s about feeling like your happiness is drained to the point you’re clinging onto good memories to fool yourself that things are okay.”

The music video, directed by Ben Westcott, captures this essence with a storyline and visual effects that illustrate Len’s frame of mind as he navigates this uncomfortable situation. 2022 has been a breakout year for the Stockwell native, who has built up a cult-like following thanks to a combination of boundary-pushing sonics, tongue-in-cheek bars, and incredible stage presence in his live performances. After recently opening up for U.S. rapper LUCKI at his sold-out show at Electric Brixton and shutting it down, Len’s own sold-out headline show is taking place this Saturday at Hackney’s Oslo. The price just went up!
