What it’s about
Arriving on the 2012 album Blacklisted under 3Beat, this track places Skepta firmly in his rap and hip-hop element. Without the lyrics on hand, the title hints at themes of street grit, toughness, and navigating unfamiliar or intense territory. Across a runtime of three and a half minutes, the explicit delivery suggests a raw, unfiltered perspective from the artist. It forms part of the wide-ranging catalog Skepta built before his later cross-continental links with major Afrobeats names.
