PSA: I’ve said this so many times and I will never stop saying it. When @kwamekwaten sends you an artist you listen. And he always hits the spot. ALWAYS. This then, is no different, this is the new single from Izzy Withers, and she’s a natural born storyteller with her lyrics. “I tried to solve it all,Stepped …
Marina Florance will always have a special place in my heart, as this year we achieved something that was a bucket list moment for me. BBC Radio 6 Music airplay courtesy of Mary-Anne Hobbs, and BBC Introducing Mixtape courtesy Tom Robinson. She’s revisited the spoken word this time reading the book that she’s just published …
Congratulations on the release of “Nasty (En)amor” how does it feel? Thank you! This is one of my most creative tracks I have made so it’s exciting to see it being received well What’s the story behind the song? This one’s a bit of a rollercoaster init? It starts off pretty sultry – I wanted …

Garlen Lo is back with his brand of humour and self deprecating lyrics in this song that he wrote at the age of 17. One thing I wanted to point out is that he’s really good at this homemade kind of sound – acoustic guitar recorded to tape and mixed so that you get the …
Project Blackbird are back with a track that’s a slick bit of production! You have Ming’s vocals switching between melody and spoken word effortlessly. Given the fact that the lyrics are in poetic form that’s probably not an accident. I like the layers to the vocals, where there’s a deeper voice emphasising on certain words …
