Honour - BEG 4 MERCY
Label: PAN
Cat.No.: PAN 122
Release Date: 09 December 2022
Purchase: PAN.lnk.to/BEG4MERCY

There's not much we can say about Honour that makes complete sense. They may or may not have grown up in the US, making beats with a cousin who sang in a church band; they might have toured as a roadie with platinum-selling R&B outfit Pretty Ricky before acing regional videogame tournaments and moving to NYC; they could have sold their life story to children's book author C.S. Adler and signed to Violator management; and maybe they ended up stationed in London, working as a runner on music promos. But however plausible it is, the breadcrumb trail provides us with a detailed cultural framework for "Beg 4 Mercy", a dense fog of pop and underground references that's as inescapable as it is enticing. It's a rare debut that engulfs even the most cautious listener, sweeping through tongue-in-cheek Wild West bravado and psychedelic, overdriven club rap, bifurcating into crumbly DIY noise and vaporous euphoric soul. Sometimes barbed and cynical, but just as often deliriously warm-hearted, it's a record of contradictions that's as puzzling to unpick as the artist's baffling backstory, imprinted with more hidden messages than a Renaissance painting. Who needs to play identity bingo when the art's screaming so loudly?

Honour - M3 (TWENTY GODS) (PAN 122)

we're the type that slips through the cracks
catch the bus
trust no one
world of rats
i want dinner and a movie and a house
smoke a cigarette
and stomp that fucker out

every church 
and every band
and every school
every girl
and every man
and even you
set you up to fucking lose

hope to god it isn't true

in my head like bees in the trap
bury me where the dart hits the map
every sight and every sound 
is fucking torturing me

god have mercy pull me out
lord have mercy pull me out
god have mercy pull me out
lord have mercy pull me out
god have mercy pull me out
lord have mercy pull me out
