Returning to the mic with his new 2020 EP 'Dumb' released on West-Wales Hip Hop label Winger Records - Blaktrix reminds us why, in the word of veteran DJ Jaffa, he's 'one of the best MC's in the UK right now.' Opening title track 'Dumb' sees Blaktrix critique modern popular culture backed by a rattling old school hip hop beat produced by Sir Beans Obe. Anime inspired 'The House of the Immortal Iron Fist' produced by Indigo Chile layers sparse guitar melodies over an unapologetic boombap beat, which segways perfectly into the braggodocio of '€5 Euro Shades'. 'Square One' serves up a soulful beat by Brutal Caesar laced with thoughtful lyrics on a relationship that won't let go. With over fifteen-years of releases on labels such as Associated Minds, Dial Up Records, Ruztik Records and B-line Recordings as well as reviews and commendations from Clash Magazine, BBC 1Xtra and HTV Wales - Blaktrix is already a name worthily cemented in the history of UK Hip Hop. 'Proof not all best British hip hop comes out of London' is what Blues 'n' Soul Magazine said in 2006 following the release of Blaktrix's third EP 'What Shall Be'. In 2020 this still remains a fact, as deputy editor of The Wire describes his latest offering as 'one of the best things I've heard this year'. 'Dumb' EP is a showcase of Blaktrix's pen game, and after a seven-year hiatus, his wry-lyrics and social commentary return at the perfect moment to a world that's arguably changed and at odds with itself.
