An up-and-coming rapper who is set to take over the UK’s checkered hip-hop scene, Mathews has recently released his three-part EP, and we absolutely can’t get enough of it.
Titled ‘Disorder’, the new EP is a brilliant, but all too brief showcase of Mathew’s talents, infusing a classic hip-hop sound with more alternative creative leanings to make something truly impressive. More than just another rap project, ‘Disorder’ arrives as a highly personal piece, one that looks deep into Mathews’ view of the world and how he moves through each day.
Speaking about the EP as a whole, and the lead single ‘The Real’, Mathews explained, “The EP is a description of the three characteristics; The Realist, The Pessimist, and the Optimist. 'The Real' is the first song in the EP and it is from my view of my life and how I go about conquering it, in a realistic manner, hopefully, others can listen to it and also relate to it in some sense.
Available now, ‘Disorder’ is a worthy listen, delivering a maelstrom of artful audio snippets, alt-rap beats, clever wordplay, and stark, earnest delivery. Built to impress and inspire, ‘Disorder’ is arguably one of the hottest independent releases of the year so far, offering a strong sound that never fails to hit its mark. You can stream the full EP below, along with the opening cut ‘The Real’ on our Spotify playlists.
Even after just one listen, it’s easy to see why Mathews has amassed over 5000 monthly listeners on Spotify alone, earmarking him as an artist to watch in 2023. For more from Mathews, including his acclaimed singles ‘Detour’ and ‘Finding Sweet in Sour’, check out his Spotify page below.
