L-FRESH The LIONLauded local hip hop luminary L-FRESH The LION has announced the release details for his eagerly-awaited sophomore full-length, Become, complementing the news with the unveiling of a new video clip, for fresh cut 1 In 100,000.
Pegged for release on Friday 13 May via Elefant Traks/Inertia, Become delves deeply into L-FRESH's psyche as he embarks on a journey "navigating the complexities and tensions that come with inheriting and adopting two very different cultures".
It promises to be every bit as personal and visceral as its predecessor, a fact not easily escaped while viewing the clip for 1 In 100,000. L-FRESH's delivery is as genuine and evocative as ever while the song moves from funky wah-guitar-driven verses to percussive, rhythm-heavy passages and the snarling electro explosion of its lyricless 'chorus' drop.
Check it out below.
With 11 tracks of undiluted L-FRESH, production from renowned desk-man Michael McGlynn and a cast of guest stars that includes the likes of Parvyn (Get Mine), Mirrah (Takeover) and Remi (Hold Up), Become promises to be one of the year's most vital hip hop releases when it drops next month.
