South London rapper Smiler has unveiled the new video to his track ‘Top of the World’, a forthcoming new single that features superstar Professor Green and female singer Tawiah.
Smiler has already made his mark on 2012 following the reception greeted to his current mixtape ‘All I Know’, which received thousands of downloads on the day of its release. Now, Smiler is poised to take it to the next level with the August 20th release of his Warner Bros. Records-signed single ‘Top of the World’ - which features two very special guests in Professor Green and Tawiah.
‘Top of the World’ balances Smiler’s effortlessly charismatic lyrical flow, which resonates with cultural references (who else could mention Amir Khan, Rihanna’s ‘Umbrella’ and favela flick ‘City of God’ in a single song?) with a huge pop hook courtesy of guest vocalist and label mate Tawiah, as well as an typically imaginative closing verse from Professor Green. The track recently received its exclusive world premiere on Mistajam’s 1Xtra show.
Smiler has already become a mainstay at 1Xtra, where his tracks have been playlisted for a total of over 20 weeks (with 4 of those weeks on the A-list), while further radio support has been provided by Radio 1’s Zane Lowe who named both Smiler’s track ‘Spender’ (which includes additional vocals by Lana Del Rey) and Smiler’s guest appearance on Jakwob’s ‘Right Beside You’ as his Hottest Records of the Week. Further tracks from the mixtape have also been played by Huw Stephens at Radio 1, Mistajam at 1Xtra, DJ 279 at Choice, and DJ MK and Shortee Blitz at Kiss.
But, don’t just take Radio 1, Zane Lowe, Mistajam, Huw Stephens, and everyone else’s word for it - check out the track below!
