Young Eman - Steeze Kills. (EP)
Rising Sheffield rapper and producer Young Eman releases his debut EP, ‘Steeze Kills.’ – a project highly anticipated amongst the burgeoning underground Rap scene. Earlier this month, Eman’s standout performance on KESH’s Foundation FM show alongside Lancey Foux, Len, Teebo, JeffGRV and Daisy May Be Fake was unavoidable across socials. Eman is now positioned as a frontrunner in the new era of digital rappers, having carefully built his reputation via his distinct sound, style, and way of communicating with followers across his socials. The entirety of ‘Steeze Kills’ is self-produced and highlights Eman’s blend of grunge-tinted production and aura-filled lyrics. Standout single “R U DUMB” follows his recent release “My Yah’ which was co-signed by Slawn and Tiffany Calver demonstrating the calibre of supporters Eman is accumulating.
"Steeze Kills" is the sonic equivalent of hitting top speed on a motorbike, where adrenaline meets danger—but here, the rush never fades. In a world where disposable music kills artists, Eman does the opposite. A formula to mosh pits and rage, ethnic pop and UK underground rap collide at full throttle. The music never dies.”
Based between Sheffield and London, Eman also represents his Zimbabwean roots to the fullest. The 19-year-old has cultivated his community of fans with milestone moments such as his Blackbox U18 Cypher, performing alongside Skaiwater at Antagonist Festival and appearing on FC24’s soundtrack. He’s regarded as a leader of the new era of digital rappers, having carefully built his reputation via his distinct sound, style and way of communicating with followers across his TikTok. Having been introduced to music via his Dad and Brother (also a producer) during his teens, Eman was curious to explore sonic avenues that aligned with his childhood idols Travis Scott, Chief Keef, Skepta and JME. The creative director behind his musical evolution, Eman not only produces and writes all his music but also directs and edits his videos, often hand-painting his artwork. His main goal in music-making is to make people feel endless euphoria, aligning with his life-on-the-edge persona. There’s no doubt that Eman is at the centre of the next generation of artists shifting UK Rap forward.
With no limits to his growth, 'Steeze Kills.’ is something special for Young Eman. As the genre surrounding Eman grows, it’s clear to see his ascendance as one of the next generation's pioneers.
