Afro Comb are a duo comprised of North London rapper Denzel Franco and Herself, a budding singer-songwriter. The two have spent the last twelve months building their sound together, experimenting with various styles and developing a beautiful, genuine partnership which is highlighted by the way they smoothly bounce of each other on debut single "Bills + Tax". Produced by Judah Jump, Herself's celestial voice sits delicately atop wobbly ethereal keys, backed by a crisp boom-bap beat. Domo Gorille serves as the track's feature and his eclectic style of hip-hop shines on the number, as he raps about the beauty of life. Denzel Franco then comes in on the last verse and poetically delivers a message filled with nostalgia, contentment and hope. 

"Leaving uni and delving into adult life, we found freedom and struggles," Afro Comb told Complex via email. "This song is for the people of our generation experiencing the same thing. Life is moving at light-speed, but we need to soak up these moments of youth, as they imprint our lives. After a mad year for us all, we decided to spread our wings and book a holiday. We thought, instead of filming a video on holiday, let's film our holiday for a video."
