Breakthrough British emcee and songwriter Sliime has announced new music with the coveted record label Def Jam Recordings India. The rising South Asian rapper, who rose to prominence for his flagrant rap single “Lehenga”, is gearing up for his India debut with another record in the works and has already shared an evocative track preview via Instagram.
Notably, Sliime has received crucial co-signs from legendary British emcees Stormzy & Headie One in the past and has released various top-tier British rap singles including “BrandNewDrip” and “Dust Mask” and 24 Carat”.
Check out an exclusive preview of Sliime’s forthcoming record with Def Jam Recordings India below.
Sliime is the second British emcee of South Asian descent to partner with a major Indian label.
Last year, marquee British rapper, record producer and songwriter Raf Saperra announced his forthcoming EP “Five Deadly Venomz” with Nas’ label Mass Appeal India. The “Ruff Around The Edges” rapper has released the long-awaited lead single “Ranjha” from the 5-track project which is set to feature a guest verse by East Coast Hip-Hop‘s top-tier rapper Dave East.
Besides joining forces with Sliime, Def Jam Recordings India released the incendiary “Midtown Madness” EP by Delhi’s rising rap royalty Raga last week.
Featuring guest verses by Indian rap pioneer Ikka, DG Immortals and Karachi’s breakthrough rapper Bandzo3rd, the hard-hitting project is home to massive rap records including “Kheench Maari” and “Mastikhor”.
Look out for Sliime’s forthcoming single with Def Jam Recordings Inda this year.
