Datkid“Virus — from Very Heavy Lead (forthcoming)”
Virus is our Datkid pick this week, with a bigger date already in the diary: Very Heavy Lead arrives on High Focus on 26 November. The 18-track album pairs the Bristol rapper with producers Illinformed and Dumb Logic, building on boom-bap foundations and a substantial guest cast. This is a preview of what’s coming, and a major local rap release to keep an eye on.
