Dirty Dike ft. Inja, Killa P & Foreign Beggars: Rex 01 + Album Stream

Absolute beast of a video from Dirty Dike as he celebrates the release of his latest album. Rex 01 features a whole lot of talented cats, as the Dikestar calls up Inja, Killa P and Foreign Beggars to get busy over a DnB tinted banger from Pete Cannon. It’s one of many gems to be found on Acrylic Snail, Dike’s first proper release in three years and probably my favourite album of his (I’m calling it already). You can experience the album in all its glory below and you can grab a physical over at the High Focus store.

Res One & Illinformed: A Dogs Dreams (Stream)

You can stream the full project below, with downloads and limited edition vinyl available over on Bandcamp.

Res One & Illinformed Ft. Inja: C’EST BON

More UK heat as Res One brings us the next instalment from his forthcoming album. For C’EST BON he has enlisted the ample talents of Inja, with Illinformed handling the production. The track is taken from A Dog’s Dream, which is set for release on 27 September on Green Brick Records. The video was made by This & That Media.

Gi3MO: Big Gizzy Is Boss (Stream)

A welcome return for one of Brighton’s finest, as Gi3MO releases his new mixtape, Big Gizzy Is Boss. The project is a selection of previously unreleased tracks from the Rum Com MC, including some absolutely golden features from the likes of Tony D, Micall Parknsun, Inja and Dirty Dike. There are of course appearances from his Boozetown family too, with Ceezlin, Hatter, Dan Dastard and Rag’N’Bone Man all dropping gems. The project was put together by Giz and DJ Choice. It is available to stream below and you can grab a download over on the Rum Com Bandcamp page.

Inja x Pete Cannon: Her Room

Inja recently released his debut album on Hospital Records and in short, it is a triumph. It perfectly demonstrates not only his dexterity on the mic, but also the different styles that drum & bass can encompass within its own parameters. Her Room is just one of the gems to be found on the album and is one of a few produced by fellow Hospital resident, Pete Cannon.
Inja said of the track, “When you realise you’re living a lie and the only escape is to completely escape. Exit, run get out, go missing, whatever. Sometimes we all have to lock off the past, live with the memories and fly. Change the locks and don’t turn back.” Blank Pages is out now on all the usual platforms.

Inja x Pete Cannon: Intro

Happy to see we are nearing the release date for Inja’s debut on Hospital Records. The first extract was revealed earlier on in the month, with fellow label mate, Pete Cannon, on hand for the production. These two have worked together a lot, both on stage and in the studio, so it’s a given that whenever they emerge from the lab they are going to have something banging for us. This one is just the intro to the album, but manages to pack a hell of a lot of substance into just under two minutes of music. Hold onto your hats when the full album drops on 29 June. Pre-orders are available from the usual spots.

Inja x Chris Munky: Firesoul EP (Stream)

Still on a high from his recent signing to Hospital Records, Inja takes a step away from the DnB world and back into his old hip hop stomping ground, uniting with Chris Munky for the Firesoul EP.
Chris’s beats range from blissed out grooves, like on the opening title track, to the more drum heavy sounds of Life Sucks, all of which lay the foundation for Inja to display the skill, dexterity and charisma that has made him one of the UK’s best-loved MCs.

Inja X Pete Cannon: No Regrets

Stepping up the tempo now as Inja and Pete Cannon unite for the blistering No Regrets. Inja – arguably the happiest MC in the UK – recently paved the way for more time to be spent with his famous grin on his face, as he announced he had signed to the indie DnB powerhouse, Hospital Records. No Regrets is his first offering on the label and between him and Mr Cannon, they have made one hell of an introduction. No Regrets is available to download and/or stream here.

Gardna x Kreed ft. Inja, Eva Lazarus, Jman & Parly B: My Show

Big tune here, lifted from Gardna and Kreed’s new EP. The Boom Sound representatives reeled in an impressive list of guests for My Show – Inja, Eva, Jman and Parly B all sounding wicked together. The video was made by Arun Productions aka the multi-talented Chris Lucas. The EP is available to download now here.
