Pa Salieu unveils double freestyles, "Epiphany / Crash"
Gambian-via-Coventry rapper Pa Salieu has shared the brand new freestyles "Epiphany / Crash".
Speaking on "Epiphany / Crash" Pa Salieu says: "While I was in jail, I realised how fortunate I was to always have my thoughts for company. My mind was my escape, and I fell in love with the pen and paper and that’s when I had an epiphany—I have a voice, a platform, and something meaningful to say. Growing up in a Pan-Africanist family, I was raised with a strong sense of history, and I know the power of words. Reading Tupac’s, The Rose That Grew from Concrete inspired me, especially the way he expressed himself through poetry. I love philosophy, history, culture, and I love humanity. Epiphany and Crash are raw reflections of that, taken directly from my jail notes”.
"Epiphany/Crash" freestyles follow his recent single, "Belly", which marked Pa Salieu's re-emergence, and his collaboration with Arsenal on "Allergy", featured in EA FC 2025 Soundtrack.
