South London rapper Loski has shared new track and video ‘Woosh and Push, which is taken from his brand new project ‘Censored’ released on 15th October via Since ’93 and is available to pre-order now here: https://amzn.to/3mibgrA

New track ‘Woosh and Push’ follows recent releases ‘Rolling Stones’ and ‘P.U.G’ and is a major track with a magnetic beat and a strong rap flow from both Loski and Suspect (AGB). New project ‘Censored’, produced by M1onTheBeat, CZR and Rymez, will be released on 15th October and the title of the release speaks for itself, reflecting across the 10 tracks on how we are censored not to speak out.

21-year-old Loski released his acclaimed debut album ‘Music, Trial and Trauma: A Drill Story’ last year, which saw him break the stereotypical narrative of drill with a thoughtful and thought-provoking album that displays maturity beyond his years. Divided into three parts, ‘Music, Trial and Trauma’ takes the listener on a journey of understanding and enlightenment discussing his life past, present and future.

He followed the album with a short film release ‘Music, Trial and Trauma’ recently, which is available exclusively in the Amazon Music app and on Amazon Music’s YouTube. It is a 16-minute short film highlighting the sometimes-harsh reality of life on the streets of London. Directed by André Reid & Dijian Eccles, the film is a heartfelt, harrowing and honest, inspired by some of the issues Loski faced growing up in the city.

About

About Loski:
Every area has a top boy – an influence that the local kids look toward as an inspiration, a source of power, a king. In the South London district of Kennington, that star is a MC called Loski. An affiliate of the young and celebrated Harlem Spartans crew - Loski broke out in 2018 and gifted fans with the long-awaited and highly anticipated debut solo mixtape ‘Call Me Loose’. In 2019, Loski returned with sophomore project ‘Mad Move’ – which charted Top 40. In November 2020, he released an extremely special and thought-provoking project with his debut album.

It’s easy to write off Loski’s life as one we’ve heard told before; county lines, gangs, guns, prison. But this is his life, the life of Jyrelle O'Connor who grew up young and poor on a brutal South London estate in Kennington. It was around the age of 16 that Loski found himself drawn to music by a desire to put his area on the rap map.

His ascent through the ranks was rapid; people were drawn to his authenticity, his wordplay and his deceptively skippy flow on tracks such as Forrest Gump and No Cap. His debut album is loosely inspired by two iconic albums – Dizzee Rascal’s 2003 Mercury Prize winning Boy In Da Corner and Giggs’ classic rap debut Walk In Da Park (2008) – two bodies of work that defined a genre and a generation: grime in the former and UK rap in the case of the latter. Music, Trial and Trauma: A Drill Story is the album to define drill, as Loski lives up to his title of Top Boy of Drill.

At the heart of everything is Loski and his innate ability to tell stories in a completely unique way. Loski has the opportunity to move the genre of drill forward, showing it to be a music of growth, depth and possibility - and that’s a metaphor for his own life too. Loski is at the forefront of change, both for himself, drill music and kids like him that come from nothing desperate to be something. Loski has returned to pick up where he left off and reclaim his position as Drill’s number one.
