Slowthai, aka Tyron Frampton, has announced the release of his debut album and shared a new track, Gorgeous.
Recorded mostly during early 2018 in East London, 'Nothing Great About Britain' is due out on May 17 via Method Records.
Comprising of 11 tracks, the album was helmed by Kwes Darko, with Mura Masa and Slaves producing the previously shared Doorman and Missing respectively. The project also features guest contributions from BBK leader Skepta and Birmingham grime artist Jaykae. Slowthai said:
"Tea, biscuits, the roads: everything we associate with being British isn’t British. What's so great about Britain? The fact we were an empire based off of raping and pillaging and killing, and taking other people’s culture and making it our own?"
Head below to check out the album's superb artwork, as well as the tracklist and new single, Gorgeous, which follows previous offering Peace Of Mind in previewing the record. The track finds the MC rapping about life growing up in Northampton over a wavy piano instrumental.
