UK rapper has been slowly bubbling up over the past few months. Though 2019's "Opp Thot" propelled him closer towards international recognition, especially with two remixes featuring Tee Grizzley and a plethora of other stars coming out of the UK. It was a fun, upbeat, catchy record that set UK Twitter ablaze upon its release.
Though he's still proving to be one of the most promising new artists coming out of the UK, it's evident that he's been chasing the success of "Opp Thot" with his most recent releases. That being said, his new record, "Honey" shows a bit more growth than other releases. He uses a similar flow on the hook but he does switch it up on the hook. Overall, Poundz is definitely an artist to keep an eye out for in the coming months.
Quotable Lyrics
Chatting on broke and your whole gang shot
Diligent yute, make your heartbeat stop
Run a man down, two shanks, just me
No team, ten toes on a paigon block
