Track of the Day: Archy Moor - 'Chain On Legs'
The follow up to 'Don't Send For Your Dogs' is a down-tempo, wavey number.
Dublin-raised rapper Archy Moor is back with a bouncy new single, 'Chain On Legs'.
Fresh from his hell-raising support slot for Denzel Curry at Dublin venue The Helix, the hip-hop sensation continues his collaborative streak with Milton Keynes-based producer Earl Saga on his latest offering.
Embracing street smarts and the sway of cash over certain artists, he stays true to his craft. Armed with slick production that embraces a funky bassline beat and chilled synth flourishes, Moor's raps aren't overpowered.
"Got 22 years more knowledge, still pushing / Never knew knowledge like a demon / The man still schemin' / This be the reason I wouldn't do meetings...Sometimes I'd rather be alone / In these times I'd rather be inside / My own mind is stepping to that light / Still thinkin' I'm too good for myself / Livin' the lie..." he raps on the opening verse, delving into bedroom DIY bars and ignoring financial offers that don't serve him.
"If it don't come my way, better lose my way...I'm praying that you leave me be..."
The Nigerian-born, Ireland-raised artist has been building a cult following in his hometown for years now, and his Bonnie Hill EP earlier this year cemented his rising star status at home and abroad.
