Kwame

"One of the leaders of the New School" - Zane Lowe - Beats 1

"He’s the movement’s youngest by age, but arguably its most visible by virtue..." - triple j

"Kwame has long been on our radar of international MC’s to watch." – Highsnobiety

‘TOMMY’S IN TROUBLE ft. CLYPSO + Phil Fresh’ is a piece that reflects upon external forces that can be oppressive in nature and at times, debilitating. Kwame’s point of view is subjective and narrates his experiences as he manoeuvres his way through a world in which is both macabre and beautiful at the same time.

The energy, character and conviction of both Kwame and Phil Fresh through their carefully thought out lyrics showcase the artists speaking out on the unheard, refusing to be villainized and oppressed.

‘TOMMY’S IN TROUBLE ft. CLYPSO + Phil Fresh’ follows ‘schleep.’ - a surprise flex track that dropped in March and further showcased the 22-year-old Ghanaian-Australian producer, writer, rapper, engineer’s unpredictability and flow. The track which will not be featuring on Kwame’s upcoming EP has gone on to amassed over 1.5m streams and was performed live on day of release when U.S. rapper A$AP Ferg, whom Kwame supported in Melbourne, pulled the young artist up on stage during his sold-out Sydney show.

‘TOMMY’S IN TROUBLE ft. CLYPSO + Phil Fresh’ is the second single taken from Kwame’s third extended play out now via Def Jam ANZ.
