Aitch has been one of the most promising young acts to emerge out of the UK in the past few years but 2020 is clearly poised to be a huge year for him, even if the world is on lockdown. The rapper returned earlier this week with his latest single, "Raw." The rapper's latest track arrived just a day before his performance at BBC's Radio 1 Big Weekend festival which was ultimately live-streamed from a rooftop. Taking on an eerie UK drill beat, Aitch packs major flexes on the record while simultaneously proving that bars haven't died.
Aitch's latest singles follow the release of "Rain" alongside Tay Keith and AJ Tracey that dropped earlier this year. It looks like promising signs that Aitch will be dropping a new project sometime in the future. Keep your eyes peeled.
Quotable Lyrics
Just got the keys to the crib,
Bust down my wrist, AP, next need a Patek
Better speak Ps if you're tryna meet me in the flesh
If not, I ain't leavin' my nest
Plaques don't even gas me no more
If they can go platinum, anyone can
Chatting 'bout big stats in your raps
Hands up if you made a mil before 21 gang
