No Squids
Ocean Wisdom's latest single, "No Squids," featuring NW London pioneer K Koke, showcases his growing influence in the UK rap scene. Released via Beyond Measure Records, the track is a testament to Ocean's prowess. Vibrant strings and rolling percussive textures set the stage for Ocean's reflective lyrics, highlighted by the line “Can’t do road up, you got to change.” K Koke's incendiary bars add depth, depicting life at street level.
Ocean's Jamaican heritage influences his sound, which first gained attention with 2016's "Chaos ’93" and 2018's "Wizville," featuring hits like “Revvin’” with Dizzee Rascal and “Ting Dun” with Method Man. Now, with his own label, Ocean collaborates with top artists like Freddie Gibbs, Ghetts, and Fatboy Slim.
His upcoming album "Fight Club" features emcees like Method Man, Giggs, and Novelist, solidifying his prominence. "No Squids" is a powerful statement of his enduring talent.
