London, UK based emcee Ibrahim Sincere recently released his latest track BALCONY, produced by Young Taylor
Ibrahim Sincere is an independent 26-year-old rapper from London, telling gritty stories of crime, poverty, social justice and the search for inner-peace which are equally as ugly as they are beautiful. Having made his name in the London Hip Hop and Spoken Word scene, Ibrahim began to reach listeners from Canada to Nigeria and created a buzz opening for artists such as Lowkey, he has also performed at shows alongside The Last Poets and Immortal Technique.
In this emotive piece, Ibrahim takes us 16 years into his past, and right into the center of the London council estate he grew up in. This mellow, nostalgic and hard-hitting song features a series of real events that helped to form his worldview, and the last verse in particular addresses a murder that happened on Rayners Lane Estate in 2003, in which the man charged was sentenced to 15 years, only to be killed in 2018. As are our most vivid memories, the stories are fragmented throughout the track, yet are woven together in a way that only true admirers of Hip Hop can really appreciate.
