New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The well respected and talented midlands grime talent Skatta comes out swinging with his new EP, Fight Night Flows. The MC ties the six tracks closely to the metaphor to boxing, making for a thematic and punch-heavy project. Tracks were produced by Breaks, DJ KDubz and Juberlee.
Describing the inspiration for this project, Skatta said "I wanted to build the project as motivation for my UFC friends, who used the songs as entrance music to their fights. I also used to box as a kid and wanted to encourage fans to use this music as motivation for training and improving physical health. "
Pulling from the grime of now and before, get pumped with Skatta's knockout EP. Stream Fight Night Flows on your favourite platform, and watch the music video for 'Try', which was supported by Earmilk, Trench and more.
Stepping into the ring, 'They Don't Do' opens up the EP. This is the most trap-tinged track, and also the first appearance from Los Angeles' PRKR. His autotuned ad libs are a unique addition, blending different sounds from both sides of the pond.
Next up is 'Shutdown', not a
Skepta cover thankfully, but still a gully grime tune. K Dubz' wobby production shines here, as well as on the lead single 'Try', featuring fellow Midlands rapper Kriptik. Also, Brum's Tarju Le'Sano picks up the gloves on tough-talking tracks 'Foot In The Cage' and 'Title Shot'. Elements of classic dubstep back Skatta's quick flows across the EP, making for a strong balance in pace.
"Never been a loser I ain't been defeated, never backed out whenever it got heated //Never been one to slack I got stacks of achievements, Im glad I'm achieving trust me I'm going through the ceiling"
