Aitch and AJ Tracey Release New Single and Video “Rain” Ft. Tay Keith
Aitch and AJ Tracey have dropped their highly anticipated single “RAIN”, produced by Tay Keith (Drake, Lil Wayne, Travis Scott), and complete with an LA-filmed visual, directed by Arrad. Out now on NQ Records/ 10K Projects, the song premiered last night on the UK’s BBC Radio 1 and 1XTRA as Annie Mac’s “Hottest Record In The World” and DJ Target’s “Targo Embargo”. With both of the rappers’ individual personalities shining through, their unique flows complement each other effortlessly over the piano-heavy beat of 23-year-old, multi-platinum selling producer Tay Keith.
Two of the hottest names in UK Rap, and both in their twenties, Aitch and AJ Tracey are both hot off the back of their 2020 Brit Awards nominations, not forgetting the domination of their 2019 singles “Taste” and “Ladbroke Grove”. A formidable duo, “RAIN” makes an almighty statement of two young talents marking their territory, not just nationally, but globally.
Only two weeks ago, Manchester’s finest Aitch returned with his first solo offering of the year “MICE”, dropped as a surprise on February 19, which incidentally crashed Aitch’s website due to the influx of traffic. The song has accumulated over 4 million YouTube views and Spotify streams combined, and broke straight into the UK Top 40. Both “MICE” and “Rain” kick off a busy few months ahead for Aitch, who following his extended (due to popular demand) sold-out UK and EU tour, is about to embark on an Australia and NZ tour, before a summer packed with festival appearances.
Last year, UK Rap star AJ Tracey released his eclectic self titled debut album to critical acclaim. It was one of the biggest indie albums of 2019 and charted at number 3 in the UK Official Charts, now certified Gold with over 110,000 sales. Not content with his sold-out Brixton Academy show in March, AJ topped off his biggest year to date with two sell out shows at London’s 10,000 capacity Alexandra Palace, after the first sold out in just ten minutes. AJ’s hit single ‘Ladbroke Grove’ is about to go double-platinum (over 1.1 million sales); undeniably providing the soundtrack to last summer, where it spent 12 weeks in the UK Top 10, as well as winning an NME Award for Best British Song. The West London-hailing artist has continuously pushed the boundaries of UK rap, throughout his self-built journey.
