Hip Hop needs to take notice, rising star EZYBLK is an artist to watch. On his hard-hitting new single “Roll By,” EZYBLK’s tremendous talent for rapping and ability to put together a hook is put on full display.
Back with another banger, emerging UK talent EZYBLK returns with the highly anticipated new single, ‘Roll By’, taken from his upcoming, debut EP. Still hot off the press, ‘Roll By’ follows EZYBLK’s debut single, ‘1000 ways’ which premiered last month on GRM Daily and has since amassed well over 12,000 views. Bursting with talent and hungry for success, EZYBLK is poised and ready to make his mark in the buzzing arena that is the current UK rap scene.
As the first single to be taken from his forthcoming EP Ezy Wrld: Trips and Routes, ‘Roll By’ offers an exciting glimpse into what EZYBLK’s has in store for fans and listeners. Inspired by his dual Congolese and British heritage, EZYBLK’s sound is a dynamic mix of flavours spanning from the gritty streets of England to the vibrant cities of Congo.
By fusing the grit and tenacity of UK rap with the rhythmic flavours of Afrobeats/Afroswing into his songs, EZYBLK creates a unique and modern soundscape that reflects both his diverse background and the diverse backgrounds of his ever-growing fanbase. Citing names such as the late Pop Smoke, Travis Scott and British icons like Skepta and J Hus as his musical influences, EZYBLK’s sound offers a little something for everyone, from danceable beats to braggadocious bars, EZYBLK has got you covered.
Speaking on his highly anticipated sophomore single, EZYBLK reveals:
“It’s so crazy because I can’t even fully remember the whole process. Roll By was one of the first songs we made. I had an instant connection with the producers and we just made a vibe. We had a session and decided to make something from scratch. I wanted to incorporate the “Jiggy Jiggy” melodic bit, so we put down some drums and bass and just went from there. Nothing was planned, I didn’t have any lyrics before we started making the beat. So, when we were discussing which song was gonna be my first official single it was only right that it’d be ‘Roll By’. It was the beginning of our journey and the song that really set the standard for our work moving forward.”
Released under Out of Town Entertainment records, ‘Roll By’ is a club-ready summer banger filled with ‘jiggy’ beats, produced by Slxt and Acekeyz, clever punchlines and a catchy, high-energy chorus that you can’t help but bop to. With more singles to come in 2021, EZYBLK is on a one-way mission to the top with no plans to stop.
