KOJEY RADICAL continues his unapologetic reign as one of the most ferocious and formidable rap talents to come out of the UK with part 2 of his successful PROGRESSION freestyle series, showcasing the East London powerhouse as one of the most compelling young voices within his genre.
“How many times has a man been slept on, let’s put that to bed now
On the last one I made sure I sealed my pen, I’ve got nothing but lead now”
2020 has seen the polymath continue to cement his unique style of powerful and passionate alternative rap, always pushing his artistic boundaries and always attacking everything with a 100% work ethic. Speaking on the PROGRESSION freestyle 2 - which follows on from the first in the series in August - he quotes;
“Consistency is the biggest gift you can give to your progress. It’s not enough to assume greatness.
Sometimes you have to speak it into existence.
Progression 2 is the rage that comes being passionate about something you love. This world can weigh on you and little by little, a little becomes a lot.
No matter what. Just keep going.”
RADICAL’s raw, relatable rap and honest, defiant storytelling has positioned him as a talent who isn’t afraid to open up, tackling a whole host of sensitive subjects with abandon. To mark World Mental Health Day (October 10th) he took part in a new Channel 4 series #THEWHOLETRUTH alongside Arlo Parks, Che Lingo and Jordan Stephens to share his own, acutely personal journey of battling depression.
So far this year has seen a flurry of explosive new music from the multi-disciplinary creative, powerful collaborations with CHE LINGO, HEAVY TRACKERZ alongside teaming up with BT SPORT to deliver a prestigious new song and video in the shape of ‘TIME FOR A NEW SEASON’ for the UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL. Expect more potent KOJEY RADICAL music dropping very soon, with details of his plans for 2021 domination.
