Two of the baddest emcees in grime link for "Lyrics," off Skepta's new "Konnichiwa" album.

Earlier today, Skepta held the launch party for his new album, Konnichiwa, and the event was streamed worldwide through Boiler Room TV. The album isn't available just yet, though after the party, Skepta gave Apple Music the exclusive hosting rights of the Konnichiwa single "Lyrics," which features another grime all-star in Novelist. 

The song title is a bit tongue-in-cheek, but it's totally honest, as the lyrical assaults from both emcees are straight bonkers. What's even more unmistakable is the confident energy with which Skepta and Novelist meet the monstrous riddim. With VIEWS and now Konnichiwa, what a week it's been for Boy Better Know. 

Quotable Lyrics 

You got murked last week
Couldn't even get a rewind that's peak 
Couldn't even get out your punchlines on time 
Now you wanna diss me, oh god what a cheat
