South London drill talent Kwengface has unveiled new single ‘10 Years’, out now on EMPIRE.

Taking a step away from the peak-time, high-octane bangers he is known for, ‘10 Years’ sees Kwengface in reflective mood, with the Peckham mainstay looking back on his ten years on the roads and what he has achieved in that time. Shot between London and New York, the accompanying official video juxtaposes his trap beginnings with the luxurious lifestyle he now leads - perfectly capturing the theme of the track in the process.

“The reason I like ‘10 Years’ the most, the day before the shoot I’d just come back to London from performing a Bugzy Malone show in Manchester and the day after the shoot I’ve got a flight to New York,” Kwengface explains. “I had so little energy for the shoot but it doesn’t show in the final video. It shows me flexing in London but it also adds the vlog-style, more organic content in New York. It shows a lot about me, without showing too much. The video gave a little insight into my trip to NYC.

He continues: “The song itself, I feel like it’s deep: it’s been 10 years (probably longer) since I’ve been on the roads experiencing certain things and this song shows that after 10 years, I’m still here breathing and thriving, but there’s been elevation. With this I wanted fans to see that I’m always working, whether it’s in the studio in London, if I’m chilling with Carns Hill (one of my favourite producers) at his house or with the mandem, I’m still working. I can go overseas but I’m still working. This is the last video that my bro Skatty has been in since my friends have now gone to jail. With this upcoming project, I’m trying to let people know that I’m more than just a drill artist, I’ve got more range to show.”
