Two brothers, surname Summers. London rap duo Summers Sons drop the second single from their forthcoming album project ‘Still Nothing Still’. Turt and Slim have updated their beloved jazz rap sound with a more electronic, trip-hoppy vibe.

In ‘Growing Pains’ Turt deals with the impermanence of life. A topic that has gotten a new urgency for him since having been diagnosed with epilepsy in 2021.“ One thing I've learnt in life is you never see it coming“ Turt explains. “Any day it can all change. The impossible to imagine is just round the corner. For better or worse. Sometimes it's painful but it's all growth. Still nothing still.” The single comes with a great visualizer by Seb Luke-Virgo.

Since 2018 Summers Sons have released four albums (‘Undertones’, ‘Uhuru’, ‘The Rain’, ‘Nostalgia’) and a string of high profile collabos with artists like C.Tappin, Twit One, The Silhouettes Project and Koralle. Not forgetting Slim's beat tape for KO-OP.

In 2023, Turt released the album ‘The Questions’ as one third of the project Syrup (the other two are Twit One & C.Tappin) while Slim released an album project (‘Cerulean’) with Benaddict and Ella Mae Suref. Turt also dropped two singles with the Silhouettes Project alongside Nix Northwest and Frankie Stew & Harvey Gunn.

Dropping 26th April: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/tapehead1/just-myself

Official Music Video: https://youtu.be/M55yPu4ncJc

First single 'Raise Up' drops Friday 12th April: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/tapehead1/raise-up

So excited to release this album. A lot of the cuts in the video are from the other official videos. 1st single is dropping Friday 12th April, next one Friday 19th April, then the full album Friday 26th. Then got 3 more videos to drop once the albums out, will be performing live in London on May 19th too. More details about that on the way. 

Want to give a huge thank you to Distant Cry, SteezySelections, Lemur Echo, and Elmo The Spaceghost for all your help with filming the videos, and shoutout to Elmo again for shooting the cover art. Will give specific credit for each video, this one has clips from videos shot by all of you. Peace!!!

This was actually the last track I made for the album, I was listening over the tracklist and I wanted it to have a more hyped up kind of Intro, just something short and sweet that gets to the point of the aim of the album. All these lyrics were off the top of the head, wanted to keep it as authentic and from the heart as possible. Also shoutout to my guy Callum who was there in the studio listening to the album that day and helped give me the fresh perspective to make this intro.

Where did you go
I need to know 
Even though
It was awhile ago (x2)

[gawdlee]
what does it matter
whether it was her house or saturn
so out of the loop but you never break the pattern 
and i wonder why is that
the hickies or the stacks
you knew what this was shouldve never got attached
i can treat you like i want this forever for only so long
til i think that i can do better and then its so long
call it a delay
just an intermission
ill be back for another game of perfect repetition 
just wait
we playin til ya fuckin heart breaks
this the type of lovin that can make the car shake
every night same lot 
can you hear the rain drops
something like your tears they been buildin up years
years
times wasting
lookin for replacements
im the love doctor, feelin up all my patients
been around the whole world in like a day
if i told you youre the one that i crave
what would ya say

[Erika Leah]
All this is is one dollar love
You dont need me for proper love
Cant believe its true
Hey, its you again.

All I want is consistent love
Need some assistance to move on 
Hey... Hey, its you again
with a dollar bill in your hand

[gawdlee]
so you sayin you dont wanna get back together
are you serious 

what you mean no
thats a first i respect that
hit me with a text yo i cant believe i read that
20 minutes call like i never even said that
youve been on my mind i just want to get my head back
take it both ways if you really want to 
shit was getting old baby now i really want you
you should reconsider you just dont know what it costs you
rejection declined i wont accept that i lost you
i thought you were way different than these other hoes 
they got clothes
with you i add a rose
opened up for once and you fuckin left me exposed
i dont even know that bitch karma
anyway im done with all games
i just wanna call you mine
sorry for the pain
tell me how to make it fine
you used to say that i was worth it all the time
now you say that all died
but but why

[Erika Leah]
I dont need you
I think im through
I knew that 
it wouldnt last (x2)

one dollar love
All you had was a buck
one dollar love
But i didn't give a fuck
one dollar love
I guess it was my bad luck
one dollar love
I hope you're rich enough
