Featuring a head rolling intro and easy cruising, laid-back (and equally head jerking) bangers, this Alabama rapper on-the-rise predominantly focus on personal struggles and (let’s say) his love-love relationship on a cocktail of drugs…like he said in the mixtape, don’t judge (because everyone is addicted to something), check out his latest project right here. REAL dope; his best mixtape to date.

New Track! Pieces Of Me – Jake Aldridge

Jake Aldridge

After ten years in the business, JAKE ALDRIDGE has just released his ‘best work yet’, Pieces Of Me, featuring long-time friend and vocalist Kelly Jenns.

2015 has been a busy year for the Suffolk-based R&B/hip-hop artist. The 27-year-old has seen his music video for previous single, Give You The World, which was filmed in Spain, go to number one on the VTYO video charts.

He has signed a publishing deal with Leopard Music, a synchronization deal with Go DIY Records and also secured a sponsorship deal with Asian-based RudeBoy Clothing Line. The smooth operator also became the first artist outside of the US to win a feature competition hosted by music blog, Daily Hip Hop Jamz, receiving more votes than anyone else.

Known for his heartfelt delivery over smooth rhythms, Jake’s music career came unexpectedly after losing his father at just 11 years old and eventually turned to his diary as a way to cope with his grief. He started out with a £12 microphone and a pop shield made from a sock.

Judging from his impressive CV, he’s come a very long way! Pieces Of Me is available via iTunes.

Upcoming Release: God, JS (ii) – Jordan Sefton

Upcoming Release: Come My Way – Benjamin AD

Come My Way Benjamin AD

Self-proclaimed ‘rhythmic philosopher’ BENJAMIN AD shares more of his alternative hip-hop beats with the first in a series of monthly singles, Come My Way, set for release on 6th November.

The poignant yet catchy track (produced by critically acclaimed Junia T, who worked with Benjamin on his debut  acclaimed release, Monster’s Ball) details the difficulties the South London rapper  has encountered on his musical journey and the “mental demons” that have followed him.

Benjamin explains: “This track is about needing to grow constantly, summarising the whole life process with ‘we’re all children no matter how old’. I feel no matter what age we’re at we have growing to do, learning to do, regardless of our social/societal standing.”
