As co-founder of Burner Records, producer-MC Sick Nanley is rarely far from Ireland's newest cultural movement. Hip-hop in the South is a fast growing enterprise, with new artists emerging every week adding fuel to it's growing fire. In the North, Mabfield collective has blew up, shining a light on alternative culture and new sounds, while artists like Jordan Adetunji, Tebirex and more are paving the way for Irish hip-hop on a national scale.
'Lampin' is the choice cut from Sick Nanley's new 'Muttonhead' mixtape, a project born from necessity after Covid-19 postponed plans for a collab with fellow Burner Records artist Local Boy, who ended up on mixing duties. It was made in his bedroom, but sounds studio ready. It's refined and well produced, but refuses to take itself too seriously.
Spitting lackadaisical verses on a chill-hop beat, 'Lampin' is a tongue in cheek celebration of chilling out and doing absolutely nothing. "There's fuck all else to be doing" he laughs at the end.
Well, he's not wrong is he?
