Reek0 Pays Homage To His Roots On ‘In Town’

New EP 'Tell Me Some More' drops next month...

Tottenham rapper Reek0 has returned with new single ‘In Town’, out via Rinse.

A prelude to forthcoming EP ‘Tell Me Some More’, ‘In Town’ is steeped in the lore of Reek0’s North London area code. Tapping into his Jamaican roots over the churn of a hypnotic house beat, Reek0 captures the nocturnal grit of fast-paced cosmopolitan life.

On his debut EP ‘Good Dreams’, Reek0 emerged as a hybrid act. Young, precocious, at times cerebral and abstract, Reek0’s underground sensibility in songs that carry with it a quotidian, street-level resonance, sets him apart from the homogenised scene at large. 

Reek0 evolved his sound further on collaborative EP ‘Wun 2’, released last October. ‘In Town’ is a natural continuation of the 6-track project; doused in the neon-tinged glow of after-hours thrills and comedowns.
