Earlier this year, J. Cole dropped ‘Middle Child’ and it picked up a lot of traction. KING BLITZ decided to give the beat a shot, spitting his flow over the instrumental, giving it that extra kick.

Song of the Day: Change The World – Jamieson (ft. Edmerald)
Described as a storyteller who narrates his life experiences through his music, London-born writer and producer Jamieson JAMIESON, makes his entry on NEW LEASE MUSIC with inspirational single ‘Change The World’. His piano-laced offering aims to make even the most jaded pessimist want to be a better person.
As JAMIESON says: “When I first heard the instrumental for the track, I knew it was a song that I’d have to deliver an uplifting and inspiring message. The main theme of the song is to change the world but I wanted to put the emphasis of having to change as individuals before being able to come together for a greater good. My music is quite biographical and honest I wanted to pen a song that showed what I’ve learned over the years to hopefully inspire others for a better future. This sounds crazy but when I was writing the song I was thinking about if I were to pass away, what message would I want to leave my children or to make them better humans? With that question in mind, that’s how this song was put together.”
‘Change the World’ is the first single from JAMIESON‘s EP, ‘The Light’. Check it out below…
Song of the Day: Last Call – Ryélle
Following the success of her 2018 debut single ‘Swim’ (produced by Dreamville’s Kaleb ‘K Quick’ Rollins), RYÉLLE drops her second single ‘Last Call’ onto the blogs today’s hotspot.
The R&B singer-songwriter shares the song’s official Judlin Civil-directed music video. Heavily inspired by Drake’s ‘Marvin’s Room,’ ‘Last Call’ is a cautionary tale of a drunken lover trying to reach their significant other to no avail….

Song of the Day: Spencer Street – Ren
REN brings something soothing for the weekend with latest single ‘Spencer Street’, the follow up to the well received ‘Blue Hounds’.
Unlike ‘Blue Hounds’, a protest song in the classic mould, ‘Spencer Street’ is, as Ren explains “a nostalgic song reflecting on a relationship and life I had in Newcastle a few years ago. I wrote it whilst I was on the road a year or so after the break up. But ‘Spencer Street’ with her still felt like home to me.”
REN – real name Conor Owen – first came onto the music circuit with debut EP, ‘A Calling From The Shore’ which, to date, has received over 700K streams on Spotify. He recently supported Sam Fender, Westerman and Elvis Perkins as well as appearing as an extra in Bohemian Rhapsody.

Song of the Day: Control – Davido x Django23 x Big Narstie
Following on from becoming the first Nigerian Act to reach 100 Million views on Youtube for ‘Fall’, which is also the longest charting Nigerian pop song in Billboard history, DAVIDO teams up with rap sensation DJANGO23 and the biggest Rap personality in the UK, BIG NARSTIE for the bouncing summer slam ‘Control’.
Snappy clicks, punching bass and percussive shakes are layered with sirens and ad-libs as producer mastermind Rymez, responsible for chart hits including Wiley ‘Heatwave’ and a string of Stefflon Don smashes including – Hurtin’ Me, Senseless and Don Walk, delivers a masterful creation that lives for this three-strike rapper combo.
As the sounds and worlds of global rap, entertainment and genre gaps rise and merge, ‘Control’ is the perfect example of how music is crossing more boundaries than ever before. Having become Nigeria’s biggest rapper to gain success in the United States and subsequently be the leader of Afrobeats in the Billboard charts, DAVIDO has been key in spreading Afrobeats globally. Meanwhile former UK promoter and Rap star DJANGO23 has blown up to become one of the most hotly tipped entertainment acts in recent months following releases ‘Suggardaddie’ featuring Tekno and ‘Give them Django’. His experience in delivering sell-out concerts and parties with A-Listers including Kanye West, Nas, The Game, Madonna, Damian Marley and more has made his transition between the worlds of entertainment business and music a seemless one. Finally, needing no introduction, Entertainer, Bafta nominated TV presenter and rap star BIG NARSTIE seals together what the all-star cast for this certified smash.
