“Never self sabotage when you know your purpose…”

Single #3 on the Verb T comeback trail is his most revealing to date; Verbs focussing on the transitional times in his life, speaking on the challenges he has faced on a search for stability. 

Equal parts humorous observation and serious life affirmation (a signature blend) and set to a soothing guitar driven instrumental courtesy of Vic Grimes, ‘New View’ is lifted from the new album ‘The Tower Where The Phantom Lives’ dropping 27.10.23 on High Focus Records.

4000 AD

King Kashmere & Alecs DeLarge - 4000 AD Feat. Renelle 893

King Kashmere joins forces with producer Cuth on expansive new heater ‘DOOR OF TRUTH’.

The latest in a string of releases from KK, ‘DOOR OF TRUTH’ sources inspiration from the infamous anime ‘Fullmetal Alchemist’, where alchemy reigns supreme.

As Kashmere explains…

“Individuals who perform forbidden alchemy get summoned to a large door standing in a shapeless expanse where they are confronted by a being called ‘The Truth’.  It is here that foolish ones who perform these forbidden acts are ‘rewarded’ for their arrogance. ‘The Truth’ will teach you something, but also take something away. You learn a lot about yourself during the exchange…”

‘DOOR OF TRUTH’ is out now across DSPs and beyond - https://bfan.link/door-of-truth

“A gentleman don’t kiss and tell…”

Renelle 893 returns with massive new single ‘Gentleman’.

A re-introduction to Renelle’s universe and a brilliant reminder of his collaborative partnership with Bay29, ‘Gentleman’ sees Renelle searching out life’s earthly pleasures atop a thumping 90s-era instrumental (circa Mobb Deep et al). Accompanied by an eye-watering video utilising cutting edge technology, ‘Gentleman’ oozes the classic energies that we hope Renelle & Bay29 long continue to champion.

“Hey, are you a hard worker? Do you deprive yourself of sleep working on your craft? Do you brave all environmental conditions to try and reach your lofty goals? How about a thick bag of slime for all your effort? Money is overrated, slime promotes character growth and nerves of steel. Get yours today!

Life is interesting. Everyone has their own experience. For some of us life is blissful, for others life is mid, and for others, life is a struggle. The struggle doesn’t mean it’s all bad though and it can be character building. I and many others of the human species fall into the latter category. ‘THICK BAG OF SLIME’ is about striving and getting little in return, sometimes nothing but the life equivalent of GUNGE. Meanwhile, more powerful entities than previously described experience none of this and thrive in the most nefarious way possible. 

This song is about all that shit with an ample helping of FONK. So press play and turn it up... NOW.”

Renelle’s biggest skill is his ability to draw parallels between his personal struggles and wider societal issues, subtly likening his 🍃 habit to the rapid deforestation crisis; Renelle expertly showcasing the weight of his dependencies with societies at large.
