‘Layers’, the debut mixtape from South London’s Deego, is a refreshing and timeless project packed with an exciting “mix and blend” of different vibes and flavours to create one succinct and infectious project.
Tracks ‘Jiggy’, ‘Skin Deep’ and ‘Rum & Weed’ are all perfect additions to add to radio playlists and DJ sets, with Deego injecting his signature artist flair into each one.
Notably recorded between Miloco Studios and Deego’s home studio, ‘Layers’ was also mixed and mastered by none other than Darren Jones, who bears impressive credits such as artists Harry Styles, Skepta, Stormzy, Kojo Funds, J Hus, Florence and the Machine, Major Lazor and more.
Camberwell raised and of Nigerian descent, Deego is a UK artist bearing a unique and eclectic range of sounds and influences including Rap & Hip Hop, Garage, Neo-Soul, R&B, G-Funk, Afrobeats and Drill.
When Deego lost his close friend and fellow rapper Temidayo in 2011 to knife crime, it sparked him to take music more seriously in order to break free of London gang culture. Fast forward to 2021, he released a string of singles that gained an impressive amount of traction in the underground scene, most notably the single ‘Brilliant Wave’.
Deego has been steadily gearing up to drop his debut body of work ‘Layers’ – available now on all streaming platforms. Check it out below…
