Song of the Day: Let’s Flow – RizzyB

East London’s RIZZYB returns with his latest Summer sizzler ‘Let’s Flow’. Aptly written on Valentine’s Day with his signature style ever potent on the track, ‘Let’s Flow’ is the perfect fusion of Rap merged with melodic vocals to create his own Afroswing-infused sound.

With the official TikTok sound already gaining traction ahead of the drop, it’s safe to say Rizzy is gearing up to take over this Summer, one single at a time…

Born and bred in Waltham Forest, East London, rising star RizzyB proves time and time again why he is one to watch within the current UK scene.

Rizzy’s artistic scope knows no bounds, having grown up on a plethora of different genres and sounds. From age 9 he became heavily immersed in music, listening religiously on a Walkman that was gifted to him.

Notably, Rizzy’s single ‘Feeling Waved’ has racked up over 150k streams across all streaming platforms, as well as track ‘My One’ being added to the official Spotify ‘Afro/Bashment’ and ‘We Move’ playlists.

His most recent project ‘Players Love Cycle’, which he dropped on Valentines Day this year, also received recognition from BBC 1Xtra presenter Remi Burgz, as well as radio play on KISS FM, Capital Xtra, Trickstar Radio, Reprezent and Flex FM. Check him out below…

Song of the Day: Smoke Castles – Amy Steele

With sultry vocals and a distinctive tone, London based Singer Songwriter AMY STEELE presents her latest single, ‘Smoke Castles’, a mix Kate Bush and Sade with alternative tapestries of soul.

‘Smoke Castles’ is about the distance created between two people when the foundations they built, were not strong enough to sustain the weight of the relationship. It’s about a lack of clarity in communication, and the discomfort of uncertainty that brings. As Amy sings out: ‘Speaking smoke, you’re so unclear, white ribbons have tied up the air.’

With Amy recently signing a deal with EMPIRE, this is set to be an exciting new chapter for the young starlet. Have a listen to her below…

Song of the Day: Love Me Leave Me – K Harrison

Rising wordsmith K HARRISON is next up to bat in the UK rap arena. Despite only having a couple of tracks under his belt — he’s already been co-signed by Compton rap titan The Game and worked side-by-side with the nation’s favourite redhead Ed Sheeran.

With superstars in his corner and two summer anthems in the air — ‘Fire Fire’ and his seismic debut ‘Boss (Call Away)’ — which both collectively accumulated over 220,000 streams on Spotify alone – K Harrison is back with a fresh hit in the making titled ‘Love Me Leave Me’.

Selecting a sultry sound pool once again, K Harrison deploys his nocturnal, pop-friendly delivery across a bulk of the runtime, before changing gears to his rapid-fire flow.

Bringing the summer heat, ‘Love Me Leave Me’ is the perfect conclusion to K Harrison’s party-starting trilogy. The Magic Hour-produced beat is home to soft, melodic guitar licks, layered vocal riffs and Latin and trap-adjacent kicks. Smooth.

Outside the studio, K Harrison is anchored by his deep-rooted love for performing — rocking international stages in Europe and Asia. The spitter also fronted the stage at BST Hyde Park festival in front of 70,000 people, performing a full set on the Barclaycard Stage to roaring crowd applause!

Often nicknamed “The Fresh Prince of Derby”, K Harrison has developed somewhat of a cult audience over the years. With over 20k followers on Instagram, the rapper-turned-vocalist regularly engages with audience, sharing previews of new music, gigs and slice of life content to flesh out his music journey so far.

Currently, K Harrison is putting the finishing touches on his forthcoming debut LP. With a high benchmark set by tracks like ‘Love Me Leave Me’, fans eagerly anticipate his next move! Check him out below…
