A year on from ‘Mantra No. 9’ Fliptrix returns with triumphant new single ‘Funky Microphone’.

Reuniting with Leaf Dog on production, ‘Funky Microphone’ is a stellar reintroduction to Fliptrix’s world across 03:26; a wall-to-wall banger that reminds us of his steadfast dedication to the fundamentals of the game; meticulous rhyme schemes, front-footed energies and an uplifting message rooted in the art of thinking about what you say (before you grab the mic).

As Fliptrix proclaims… “Loose lips sink ships so watch what you say.”
