“Confronted by a younger you, telling you do better dude…”

Fliptrix joins forces with long-time collaborator Illinformed on the latest track lifted from his brilliant new LP ‘Mantra No. 9’. 

A sci-fi spectacle set in the dystopian shadows of Canary Wharf and its neighbouring megastructures, Fliptrix professes visions from a near-future; analysing the state of play almost from an almost parallel universe, speaking from his chest about how he both sees and feels the world.

What better way for Vitamin G to celebrate a midsummer concussion than ‘Big Spender’; a glittering ode to the moments spent together in the sun (and mud) during festival season.

Teaming up with prolific producer Illinformed, ’Big Spender’ is a classic boom bap offering that showcases Vitamin G on TOP FORM from start-to-finish.

As Vitamin G explains... “The song revolves around the notion of spending big to get inebriated, juxtaposed by the harsh reality of being largely broke.”

STREAM / DL 'Legendary' by Harry Shotta: https://bfan.link/harry-shotta-legendary

Harry Shotta teams up with Illinformed, Fliptrix, Verb T, and DJ Jazz T to deliver a timeless UK Hip Hop anthem, this one’s 'Legendary'.

In creating this project for High Focus and returning to his roots, Harry Shotta set out to make great, timeless Hip Hop. With a love for 90s Hip Hop and the iconic boom bap sound, it was essential to capture that vibe as the backbone of the album.

Inspired by classic posse cuts​,​ where multiple MCs go bar-for-bar over a hard-hitting beat​,​ he brought in UK Hip Hop legends Fliptrix and Verb T to bring the vision to life.

With production from Illinformed and razor-sharp cuts from DJ Jazz T, the track delivers everything Shotta envisioned​,​ a timeless record set to be 'Legendary'.
