On Friday March 25th, Black Country emcee Robert released Orange is the New Black, a poignant alt-rap debut which began life behind bars. With features including Jason Williamson (Sleaford Mods), Slug (Atmosphere) and Rag N Bone Man, the nine-track LP spans low-slung hip hop to simmering acoustics.
Dirty Dike returns on his new label Melonskin Records. This first release is Bucket Kicker, a sure fire neck-snapper with production from Pete Cannon who is co-label owner. Sick video, sick lyrics, sick production - all categories fulfilled.
Robert's painfully remorseful debut single 'Porridge' features the powerful tones of Rag'n'Bone Man, and is an open-hearted, melancholic look back at time spent behind bars and the agony imprinted in his family's life.
High Focus Records is proud to present TrueMendous' new single 'Emmett Till' featuring Masta Ace and produced by Dirty Dike. The track is lifted from her recent album 'Misdiagnosis Of Chyvonne Johnson' - available now on all digital streaming platforms.

The last few years have proven to be some of the finest in the history of British hip-hop, with the ever increasing number of solid emcees emerging, and with them some premier independent record labels that continue to flourish with every passing day. The sheer volume of commendable releases from last year alone was a sure sign that things only continue to get bigger and better for UK hip-hop enthusiasts, and that someday soon hopefully the mainstream industry will catch up and wise up to what they've been missing out on.
