Did you get the MEMO?

Following his critically-acclaimed recent release ‘WAVS DNT DIE’, London rapper Akheim Allen drops a second heavyweight jam with ‘MEMO’.

Working already with the likes of Dave East, Avelino and Dreamville’s Ari Lennox, as well as writing with Kojey Radical and Maleek Berry, Akheim is rolling with some of the brightest emerging artists right now and deservedly so: this second instalment will serve as a reminder of the kind of innovative talent Akheim possesses, and points of an exciting new body of work.
