Album Review: Escape The Kingdom – J.Chambers

Manchester’s hip-hop/poet J CHAMBER‘s EP, ‘Escape The Kingdom’, covers topics of being a black and British in Great Britain today – the kind of hard-hitting topics that are often swept under the carpet.

Over predominantly reggae driven beats, J Chambers touches on slavery, the migration of Windrush generation to the UK and the harsh and unwelcomed treatment they’ve received by the British people (listen to ‘Freedom Ain’t Free.’)

Through his distinctively manc-catchy flow, J Chambers also discusses that the dependents of the Windrush generation also experience the same treatment and any contributions made by the black community are often overlooked by the British society.

‘Escape The Kingdom’ also has a theme of black liberation by offering strong encouragement of stamping out any prejudices and racism that comes to path. Speaking of the project, J Chambers says he wanted it to really “resonate with young children” .

Hailing from Bristol, singer/songwriter and producer FLETCHER, JAMES  delivers stunning new single, ‘Quiet’, premiered on BBC Introducing.

Written long past the stroke of midnight, ‘Quiet’ captures the frantic energy of an overactive mind and sets it against the fragility of a tired soul.

Listen To Isaac B’s Track ‘Lean’ (Temple Remix)

Rapper ISAAC B bounces in 2021 with remixes from his 2020 debut EP, ‘Chances Ocean’.

First to get the remix treatment is, ‘Lean’, which describes the buoyant feeling of unapologetically enjoying the new-found respect from others. Originally an minimalist alt-hip-hop piece, ‘Lean’ receives a slick R&B-esque/hip-hop makeover from London’s lo-fi, hip-hop and house music producer Temple, who has worked with the likes of UK rap legend Tommy Evans.

The remix was brought to life after the unlikely pair met through a beat battle via And What? LDN. After multiple encounters, Isaac B & Temple drop this upbeat take on Lean and prepare to release an EP together later this year.

Check out the remixed version of ‘Lean’ below:

TrueMendous Drops Track ‘Don’t You Wanna’ + Video Ahead Of Album

As fans eagerly anticipate the release of ‘Misdiagnosis of Chyvonne Johnson’ on the 1st April via High Focus Records, TRUEMENDOUS  keeps up momentum with her third single release of the year, ‘You Don’t Wanna’. Churning the energy levels sky high, TrueMendous delivers an exhilarating record showcasing her dynamic and skippy flow. In harmony with her intricate flow patterns, the music video mirrors the pace through the changing backdrops and gradients.

‘You Don’t Wanna’ showcases powerful articulation and control, similar to her 2021 debut ‘Cause A Scene’. However, she is also able to demonstrate a soulful conscious rapping style seen in ‘Worst Child’.

Following on from the soulful and more rhythmic method of rapping TrueMendous surprises fans with a sneak peek of ‘Y’, which is teased at the end of the ‘You Don’t Wanna’ music video. The juxtaposition between both tracks exemplifies TrueMendous as an artist and her eclectic sound. Taken straight off the forthcoming album, ‘Y’ steers away from the fast paced levels of ‘You Don’t Wanna’ and sways towards a stripped back sound. Oozing with saxophone riffs, the slow pace is also reflected in the captivating visuals.
