Description

West London rap visionary Lord Apex has dropped Smoke Sessions Vol. 4, the final instalment in his decade-long series – and it’s a reminder of why he’s considered one of the UK’s most distinctive underground voices.

The project sees Apex in razor-sharp form, weaving inventive flows, wordplay and introspection over an eclectic palette of sounds – from dreamy, jazz-tinged beats to liquid D&B, grime and Bronx-flavoured boom bap. Standouts like Out The Water, What’s the World Mean To You Part II and EM4 showcase both his lyrical dexterity and his ability to shift seamlessly between personal reflection and broader cultural commentary.
