Kojaque previews debut album with latest single "Wickid Tongues"
Kojaque has delivered new track "Wickid Tongues" as the latest preview of his upcoming debut album Town's Dead.
Last month Kojaque announced his debut album with the title-track "Town's Dead", and today (20 May) he's returned with another taster of the record with "Wickid Tongues", which is about "falling too deeply in love with someone a little too fast, and how that can play with your head and make you paranoid." He adds, "It can be quite hard to build trust early on in any relationship, if you're not careful I feel it's easy for your thoughts to run away with you and you become suspicious when there might not be anything wrong."
The new track, according to a press release, came together after a night out and freestyle in London with Biig Piig, who also features on the song.
It'll feature on Town's Dead alongside earlier singles "No Hands", "Coming Up" and "Shmelly".
He adds of his album, "Town’s Dead comes from the potential that I see in Dublin and in the people I’m surrounded by day in and day out. There’s nothing but talent and ambition among young people, I’m constantly reminded of that through the art and music that I see being made but I think so often the city grinds you down, it takes your hope and your ambition. I know that it can change because so many of my friend express the exact same wants, desires and frustrations with living in Ireland. If so many of us are on the same page then I know that things can change, there just needs to be some sort of catalyst to kick start that change and for me that’s always been art and music. Time and time again, amazing art continues to be made in spite of the struggles and setbacks that are presented when living here. The title-track and the album is a fight against what can sometimes feel inevitable, it’s a rejection of what people tell you is your destiny as a young person in the city, Town’s NOT dead it’s just Dormant."
