Kwengface

Last week, Kwengface made the decision to remove his mask after all these years for a much-hyped session for COLORS Studio. His first act in this new, mask-free chapter was to release his new project, The Memoir.Drill’s still a major part of The Memoir—which has been described as a more polished and refined version of the Peckham rhymer—but the tape sees him broaden his sound a bit more to include more of a straight-up rap influence. Elsewhere, “Freedom” features a notable 2-step bounce, Jme brings a touch of grime to the…

Peckham’s finest, Kwengface and Giggs have linked up for a new track entitled “Water”.Kweng’s latest single sees the South East London borough’s generational gap being bridged, while showcasing just how intertwined their roots actually are.Produced by Kill Bill, “Water” comes complete with an explosive drill instrumental—familiar territory for Kweng—which Giggs, aka The Landlord, takes to effortlessly, proving why he’s a legend in the game as the pair trade bars between them. Peckham’s finest, Kwengface and Giggs have…

Peckham natives Kwengface and SL have linked up over a Nyge-produced track entitled “For One”. Lifted from Kwengface’s forthcoming project, The Memoir, the track sees the pair bounce off each other seamlessly atop Nyge’s “elegant drill” production. Kwengface’s hard-hitting bars paired with SL’s nonchalant delivery make for a truly captivating listen.The track’s accompanying visuals were directed by Lutch Media, with Simon Stolland—known for his work on the critically acclaimed Blue Story—on cinematography. Reminiscent of…

We’re still reeling from Knucks’ stunning Alpha Place project, and the shockwaves it sent through the scene this summer, but there’s no time for any of that because the South Kilburn rapper’s already back with a fresh hit for us. “Lucious” dropped on Friday and it sees him team up with Kwengface for a rare take on drill.Bolstered by an ultra heavy and very choppy drill production from the originator himself Carns Hill, it’s a dark backdrop for the pair, but they still take us to some unexpected places. Touching on that…

Back in April, we brought you news of A Driller’s Perspective, a new mixtape from incarcerated rhymer CB, the product of painstaking work with producers R14 and Menace conducted pretty much exclusively by phone. That alone was an impressive feat, but just a few short months later and we already have a Part II.The new 17-tracker dropped late last night and with it the visuals for lead single “Machines”, a high-intensity back-and-forth with Kwengface that gets right down to the raw fundamentals of drill. The visuals are…

If you follow Kwengface on Instagram, then you’ll know that he was over in New York late last year, connecting with the locals and clearly working on something. Today, we get to see at least some of the fruits from that trip as the UK drill star shares new single “Step Out”, a collab with Brooklyn driller Dusty Locane.Produced by London’s Gotcha, “Step Out” is a slightly slower one than we’re used to from the two rappers—bringing out a more commanding, swaggering flow from the pair—but it’s still as rowdy and energetic as…
