How are you supposed to dry your eyes, when you keep having moments that provide tears of joy 😭

Looks like it’s me and @thestreetsofficial__ this July in Leeds. Also on special guest duties are the legends @casisdead & @antonyszmierek what a line up 😮‍💨. Big up @futuresoundlive

I remember when @mikeskinnerltd did a sit in with @anniemacmanus on @bbcradio1 and he played mine & @tellemdeez song, Darcy. That must have been 2019. Life really can be mad sometimes.

God is always the winner 🙏🏿

I learnt a lot about my self when making this EP. There were times when I wanted to quit and walk away. Drama after drama, issue after issue and problem after problem, which demanded me to demonstrate a level of patience and resilience I never knew I had. I tell these young wide eyed kids who want to enter the music industry, you better develop a thick skin because rejection becomes your best friend, so you better like the taste of custard.

What does Undeniable mean to me? Never compromise your integrity for NOBODY. May your presence be felt in every room you step in. Show up in times of adversity because a lot of people say they would, but never do 🔒

My EP ‘Undeniable’ is OUT NOW on all digital platforms 🎉

Special thanks to my manager @ekcordell I don’t know what I’d have done without you mate. Big up all the producers @tellemdeez @soundslikedotinc @shadowonthebeat we got there in the end 🔥 and @itsthethird for being an amazing honest ear.

Shout my guy @lewiwhite we could have gave the people an audio book with all them voice notes brother, you’ve made the EP sound brazy. Big up my guy @luke_hallett_ for always being on point with the 🎥 and dealing with my ocd. I know I’m annoying and you dread every time my name flashes up 😂

Love to my dons @stewartbaxter & @hannahmlondon for doing an amazing photoshoot with me last year which definitely took me out of my comfort zone. You provided the canvas for this whole campaign. Love you guys

21st Avenue, I love you more than you know. I promise I’m gona make that sign famous

Looks like I’m letting @coldplay close for me when they come to Craven Park in August. It feels right
