London rapper Wretch 32 was one of the biggest breakthrough acts to come out of 2011 and he begins the build-up to his next album with the drop of ‘Blackout’.
The ‘Unorthodox’ star dropped by for a chat with Mistajam on BBC 1Xtra earlier this month and unveiled the lead single from his second album, which is still untitled at this point in time. We haven’t heard from Wretch since the Kano inspired ‘Pop’, which although was a tune we did enjoy, it wasn’t a stand out track at the time.
Wretch brought through UK vocalists L. Marshall and Josh Kumra with singles from his debut LP and he’s trying the same trick again, handing Shakka a slot on the chorus for ‘Blackout’. Production on the uplifting track has been handled by Knox Brown.
‘Blackout’ is out on 12.05.13 on Ministry of Sound Recordings / Levels Entertainment.
