What it’s about
Arriving on the 2012 album Blacklisted under 3Beat, this track clocks in at just under three minutes of direct rap and hip hop. Without the lyrics on hand, the title hints at reflections on seeking peace or peeling back the complications of daily living. Skepta, known for blending rap with African music influences across his career, delivers an explicit cut here that fits right into his gritty, focused catalog. It offers listeners a sharp look into the UK rapper's mindset during that era of his journey.
