New Track: Eggshells – Raylo

London hip-hop collective RAYLO are getting geared up to release not one but TWO epic music videos. Until then, the guys have dropped a brand new single entitled ‘Eggshells’, which displays their signature combo of mysteriously idyllic overtones and that boastful b-line.

It’s definitely worth checking out…and if you’re feeling this track, I have some great news – you can download it for FREE right here.

New Track: Billie Jean – Kid Tana

If you’ve been keeping a close eye on fresh talent via GRM Daily and Link Up TV then KID TANA will certainly not passed you by. Making his debut just six months ago with the hard bodied track ‘Buju Banton’ he then dropped a visual for his Gear 1 freestyle. Now he returns with his banging second joint ‘Billie Jean’!

Taking on the title of the MJ classic, KID TANA hits complicated rap patterns whilst harmonising his colourful writing. Beginning to see a trend in his music, Tana applies several musical influences into one coherent vision that draws on dancehall, trap and afrobeat and hears him flit from the guttural to the sing-along in smooth transition.

‘Billie Jean’ is now available on all streaming and downloads sites…for now, check out the video for the track below…

Song of the Day: Hideaway – Ben Brown (ft. Ehmji)

After spending almost a year in the US, working with Baltimore producer beatsbysteev, singer/songwriter BEN BROWN has slammed down a one hell of melodic hip-hop/R&B joint entitled ‘Hideaway. Featuring the smooth flow of rapper Ehmji, ‘Hideaway’ is taken from his latest EP, ‘410 Interlude.’

Compared to the likes of James Vickery, Tom Misch, and Zak Abel, the North Londoner gained traction in the UK scene last year, playing at Sundown Festival and opening the main stage at Mutiny Festival, following his ‘No Words’ tour which saw the artist deliver his energetic performance style at headline shows throughout the UK in support of his new single – his third consecutive one to reach the top 15 in the iTunes singer-songwriter charts.

This one’s too good to miss….check out the fire production below:

Song of the Day: Creepin – Trinity Square

Following its premier with DJ Target on 1Xtra and the visual release via GRM Daily, Nottingham group TRINITY SQUARE have smashed onto the scene with Instagram going crazy for the video and some of the biggest UK channels, including Hackney’s Finest, Young Kings, The StreetBlogs, imjustthatguy and banterNtalent looking like they can’t get enough of it. The group have also pulled in national radio support and playlists from Kiss Fresh, Apple Music, Pulse 88 as well as BBC Introducing via Leicester, Derby and Nottingham.

A group of five young rappers and singers; Huey, ZIA, YD, B5IVE, and Trizzy VS – TRINITY SQUARE are hitting the radar amongst many emerging figures due to their unique style which is both hard-hitting and smooth. Produced by Stunnah Sez Beatz, ‘Creepin’ hears each of the TRINITY SQUARE members bring a different element to the track to wind it into an infectiously catchy number with a hugely melodic, sing-a-long hook. Varying pace and rap flows meet with harmonic lyrics and whilst each individual stands out with clarity, the combination of all elements works together in perfect harmony.

Their distinct twist of UK Rap and singing compliments the already vibrant UK urban scene and following a number of impressive YouTube releases such as ‘Pull Up’, ‘Gwop & Gwolla’, ‘Cold Summer’ and ‘Fanta’, the guys have built up an admirable opening discography for anyone that wants to discover more….

New Track: Properly – Nizzy

Serving as the lead single for his forthcoming sophomore EP, which is due for release this summer, ‘Properly’ comes off the back of NIZZY’s last single ‘Rice & Peas’ and his critically acclaimed debut EP ‘Dreamin’ In Colour’.

The SynX-produced track, displays infectiously soothing Afrobeats, with hazy influences of Dancehall and R&B.
