The south East London rapper releases a stunning new single

Fresh from dropping tracks, The Real Survive and Golden Brown, UK rapper Jords is back with a powerful new single—Reparations.

The lyricist has been heating up the gas cylinders of British hip-hop for a while, blazing features as well as dropping his own highly-acclaimed albums.

What Reparations Sounds Like

As his rhythmic delivery sets the tempo, brush snares — featured on a track from his upcoming project Mixtape J — heighten the anticipation.

Viva Cee uses sprightly production to platform the penmanship of a trailblazing wordsmith, as Jords drops bars of silent defiance, like “It’s a beautiful day to get paid.”

His firm stance, ignited by a decision to decline an invitation to Buckingham Palace, is underscored by vivid lyricism like on the chorus, “Pay us. Give people what they deserve. The rest is noise.” This highlights the sentiments of millions across the UK, who feel that injustice is rife.

The Verdict

The versatile artist’s work is oxygen. Having melded drill-esque music with a veracity of substance, he creates a musical letter to deliver to Downing Street.

Jords’ skillset is invaluable in an industry where similar efforts are in short supply. His significance is both felt and demonstrated through consistent music.

On this incredible new single, he fights, with a call to action, galvanising thought in an inspiring and validating way.
