 KOJEY RADICAL RELEASES NEW SINGLE

“PAYBACK (FEAT. KNUCKS)”

 

THE LATEST SINGLE FROM HIS HIGHLY ANTICIPATED DEBUT ALBUM REASON TO SMILE, RELEASED 4TH MARCH 2022 VIA ASYLUM / ATLANTIC RECORDS

    

 

 

 

        London’s Kojey Radical today releases the latest single from his highly anticipated Reason To Smile debut album (out 4^th March via Asylum / Atlantic Records). Produced by Swindle and featuring north west London rapper Knucks, “Payback” sees Kojey Radical performing with supreme confidence, reclaiming titles, words, and identity. It’s a song – all swaggering – that’s embedded in Black cool and draws a line through generations of Black artistry. The payback of the title is internal: it comes from a recognition of self and discovering that inner joy. 

“When you’ve been taught to be the victim for so long, it feels great to stand up and say, ‘No one can bully me’,” says Kojey.

 

     “Payback” provides another enticing glimpse of what fans can expect from Reasons To Smile. The album is a love letter to the hip hop that’s influenced Kojey, littered with references, sample nods and interpolation. It’s an album about confidence, pride, and identity and features guest appearances from Tiana Major9, Masego, Shaé Universe, Cashh, Kelis, Lex Amor, Knucks, Shakka, Wretch 32, Ego Ella May and Rex Life Raj and his own mother (whose voice weaves throughout the record) alongside a who's-who of global production talent including KZ, Swindle, Jay Prince, iO, The FaNaTiX, Cadenza, 169, Venna, Ric & Thadeus, Blue Lab Beats, Emil Larbi, Mr Cutts and Ed Thomas.

 

 Kojey Rdical Ft Knucks "Payback"

 

     

  

 

 

     Having already made such an indelible mark on British music it's hard to believe that Kojey Radical has never released an album. Over four previous EPs and writing for artists such as Mahalia, Kojey’s given people greatness; but on Reason To Smile he's striving for perfection. Defined by a sound he describes as "space and bass" and also featuring the previous singles "War Outside (ft Lex Amor) and "Gangsta," Reason To Smile is without doubt Kojey Radical's most ambitious and complete work to date and an
emphatic statement of the levels at which he operates.

Talking about the album, Kojey Radical says:

"This is the first time I've done it to the scale and ambition of what I speak. Previously it's been "I'm warming, I'm warming, I'm warming up". But I'm warm now - put me in the game"
