A Little Late

Hushed, jazz-inflected hip-hop recorded in the shadow of loss. A dusty, intimate debut that feels like a private conversation in a South London bedroom.

It's like a warm hug and a good cry over a dusty jazz record.

A quiet, dignified sadness wrapped in the warmth of old jazz samples.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The heartbreakingly direct opening bars of BFG where the grief feels physically present.
The way the jazz piano loop in Cantona provides a soft cushion for the heavy weight of the lyrics.
The subtle background hiss and room noise that makes Pieces feel like you're sitting in the booth with him.
