2015 was a pivotal year for the UK music scene with new artists making their name. 2016 has started where it left off. The grime lord himself; Skepta took to instagram to finally announce his long awaited album Konnichiwa. It is set to release on May 6th. The album features artists such as Pharrell, whom Skepta mentioned in his recent interview with Zane Lowe that “You get some people who really love music, and you get people who do this because they want to have money or want to be famous. Pharrell loves music,” he explained. The question on all fans lips was if Skepta and Drake made a song together on Konnichiwa after the OVO rapper came out at Section Boyz and announced his allegiance to BoyBetterKnow. Skepta stated in the Lowe interview that Drake is in fact not on his album as it “makes more sense to be on his album than mine”. Not all hope is lost; Drake is also dropping his album ‘Views’ on the 29th April. Skepta may feature on the album. Drake is also working closely with Ashley Walters and Skepta on the creative front to complete the highly anticipated Top Boy Season 3.
