This week we’ve got 5eb setting the tone with a sharp, boundary-pushing energy right from the start. Fcukers follow up with a raw, emotive pulse that lingers. Lollie keeps things moving with catchy hooks and a slick modern edge, while Paul Stephan and Frank Medley link up to deliver a bold collaboration. Finally, Prospa rounds things off, closing the set with high-energy rhythms.

#1 5EB – Sex Sells

Emerging North-London rapper and multi-disciplinary 5EB, musician known for carving this was through his wavy trap-influenced beats. Been in the game since 2018-2019, where he quickly built a buzz, selling out his debut headline show at the age of 17. ‘Sex Sells’  taps into this uk underground scene bringing us unique intense digital distortion and eerie 808’s. This track is quickly gaining attention and a sign of a new wave. 5EB won’t stop here.

#2  Fcukers – Lonely

The New York–based electronic duo Shanny Wise and Jackson Walker Lewis release “Lonely” alongside their debut album Ö. The track delivers high-energy, punchy basslines laced with subtle ’90s house and garage influences. As the lyrics explore a distinct kind of isolation, the contrast is striking—leaving you questioning whether it feels right to be dancing along.

#3 – Lollie – Fool Me Twice 

Singer-songwriter Lollie from Cornwall is back with her dreamy alt-R&B influence. ‘Fool me twice’  feels intimate built on a soft, late night production and seamless melodies, this track leans into introspection carrying a reflective tone that hints at emotional repetition and blurred boundaries. Understated but effective.

#4 Paul Stephan ft. Frank Medley – Socially Punished

Known for this energetic fusion of UK rap, grime and garage with hints of groovy and soulful jazz beats, Paul Stephan teams up with Frank Medley giving us emotion and reflection. Paul lets us in exclaiming how growing up as the man he is came with challenges after challenges but still he rises. His consistent work ethic, with high-caliber, self-produced or collaborative tracks continues to make noise in the UK rap scene.

 #5 Prospa – Free Your Mind

Straight from Leeds, Prospa have caused waves with their new track ‘Free your mind’ . Known for modernising 90’s house, rave and breakbeat sounds, Harvey Blumler and Guiorgu Smith have outdone themselves. This track locks into a hypnotic groove alongside brilliant sampled lyrics from Sybil’s ‘Oh, how I love you’.  A kind of song that feels effortless but hits hard—desinged for hands-in-the-air moments and long sleepless summer nights.
