Skepta hasn't necessarily been quiet but he definitely hasn't been as active as we wished he was. The grime emcee dished out a few tracks last year including the Wizkid-assisted, "Energy." He also delivered a few stand-out guests verses throughout the year as well. Now, he links up with Double S for their new collaboration, "Certy."
Double S and Skepta link up for their new track, "Certy." The two have known each other a while but this is the first time they've gotten together on a track. Silencer holds down the grime-centric production on the track while Double S and Skepta snap over the instrumental. This marks Double S's follow-up to his track, "Shell" which he released at the end of November.
As for Skeppy, the rapper teamed up with LD for "Neighborhood Watch" in November. He's also a new father so we're assuming that's been occupying the majority of his time.
Quotable Lyrics
I'm on the strip and they see me
Double told you it's all about timing
Rude boy, get in the lane, you can't be me
Who said it was gonna be easy?
Had to put in the work, get greezy
Had to fly around the world, get active
Passport tatted up like Weezy
