Jelani Blackman - Pattern (Single)
Jelani Blackman continues to show his diversity with new single ‘Pattern’, out now via 18 Records / eOne Music. This latest offering follows Jelani’s incendiary freestyle ‘Gone’ that kicked off the year, continuing the momentum from a breakthrough 2020, which saw widespread support for the West London rapper and singer.
Produced by the team of Jay Weathers (Stormzy, Not3s, Mr Eazi), Conor Bellis (Rudimental, Tom Walker) and George Conway, ‘Pattern’ sees Jelani showing off his impressive vocal range, seamlessly slipping between singing and rapping over a sultry beat that draws from elements of afrobeats and R&B. “I’ve wanted to have a tune like this out for the longest time. I love summer and for me, this is exactly what I would be listening to at this time of year, so I’m happy that I could make something to vibe to. It’s about life and how it dips and moves in mad ways, but you can always just go with whatever happens,” Jelani explains.
