itoldyouiwouldeatyou are a fast-rising UK indie-punk collective and on their latest release, they have put together the genre-warping hip-hop collaboration "K.O.#1". This one is a high-octane posse cut which features Railsplitter, TeenSlasher91, DWF, Signor Benedick The Moor, Chevy Blazer, Master Peace, Dave Sylvester and KINGKHAN. All of the artists do their thing on the rock-infused trap beat, with the band's vocalist Joey Ashworth AKA Railsplitter leading the charge.

Other notable features include the genre-defying emcee Master Peace, and TeenSlasher91 of Worstworldproblem, who offers up an introspective rap verse on this supreme link-up. Joey Ashworth tells Complex over email that "we are tired of the same sounds, same line-ups—same shit! So we asked a bunch of people we respect to show us how it's done. Every person on this track is special to us and we straight-up couldn't have asked for a better group of people to collaborate with."

Check out the track below, and if you want to see the band live, catch them supporting Liverpool punk band QUEEN ZEE on their February 2019 UK tour.
