Following the release of his last single, the heart-warming exploration of Black fatherhood, ‘Parity’, which was supported by the likes of BBC Radio 1, BBC 1xtra (Track of the Week), KISS FM, Amazing Radio, Wordplay Magazine, and GUAP Magazine among others, London-based, independent hip-hop artist and producer AKS (pronounced “Ay-Kay-Ess”) aka the “three letter man” returns with his latest single, "SEASONS CHANGE", as he continues to tease towards his long-awaited third project, As Plane As Day: Departures & Arrivals.

The London native who’s garnered a recent boost in popularity following his impromptu involvement in many Open Verse challenges via Instagram & TikTok, changes tact to deliver a compelling and nostalgic homage to the songs that played backdrop to the years of his adolescence and the unfolding friendships that have left an indelible mark on his musical journey.

Leaning into his trademark poetic storytelling with “Seasons Change'', AKS delivers a deeply melodic offering that transcends time, beautifully capturing the essence of evolving and endurant relationships. Inspired by the ebbs and flows of life, this heartfelt offering is a sincere reflection on the power of true friendship, weathering difficult and uncertain circumstances but standing the test of time through the seasons of our lives.

Featuring a talented ensemble of musicians, "Seasons Change" boasts a rich musical tapestry that brings its narrative to life. Co-produced by the “Three-letter man” himself under the veiled moniker, #3Letters, and renowned producer Self-Taught Beats (Alesha Dixon, Wretch 32, Yolanda Brown) the infectious production pays tribute to classic songs of the late 90s UK Garage/2-step scene while bringing a fresh perspective to the forefront.

Speaking about the inspiration behind ‘Seasons Change’, AKS says, “I wanted to create something that was indicative of the songs that helped me to fall in love with music and the art of emceeing back in the days when my entry point was Pirate Radio and missed calls for a wheel up. I wanted the song to slot in next to the classics I wished I was old enough to rave to and not feel out of place and in many ways it’s a homage to the soundtrack of my youth, in the same way that it’s a wave to the kids we were in the school playground with lofty dreams of who we'd grow up to be, the adolescents getting up to mischief and having run ins with the law, or the young adults who would put their hand in their pocket and pool resources to try further our ambitions.”
