KNEECAP share title track from forthcoming debut album, Fine Art
Irish rap trio KNEECAP have shared their new single, "Fine Art", which is the title track of their recently announced debut album produced by Toddla T.
Speaking of the new single, Kneecap says it was inspired by “The mental reaction of the media to our mural unveiling of a police jeep on fire. The mural ended up on the BBC with Steven Nolan who’s like the Piers Morgan of the North of Ireland. They had a massive debate about the painting, and he says, ‘The band Kneecap claim the mural is just a piece of fine art’. So we sampled it into a dance tune and dropped it in where it kicks. That’s where the title comes from - when we were getting stick about the mural that’s the term we used. Because that’s the best description isn’t it? If you don’t get it, you don’t get it. It’s still fine art.”
Fine Art is set for release on 14 June via Heavenly Recordings, and is available to pre-order now.
