After blessing Netflix’s The Harder They Fall soundtrack with “King Kong Riddim” alongside Jay-Z, Jadakiss and Conway The Machine, British-Congolese rapper BackRoad Gee is back with the drop of his highly-anticipated mixtape, Reporting Live (From The Back Of The Roads).
For his new project, East London’s BRG called on the talents of Pa Salieu, Olamide, Stefflon Don, Nissi, Jme, SYRA, Stylo G, NSG, Lethal Bizzle, Ms Banks, BG, Dabully and TizzTrap to feature across the 18-tracker, with sounds ranging from UK drill to Afroswing and grime.
“After almost two years of hard work, blood, sweat and tears—literally—I can say I’ve had some of the craziest life changes, which makes this mixtape mean so much to me,” BRG told CLASH. “If you know me personally, this music and energy I give you is me from my heart. It’s not a job I go to or an identity I put on. Every word, every punchline, every ad-lib, I feel through the energy, and the music is real, not a fairytale. This is I, King Brukz, reporting live from the back of the roads.”
