Zimbabwean-Irish rapper God Knows makes a powerful return with his latest single, ‘The Observer’, out now via Narolane Records. This marks his second release of the year with the label, following the acclaimed single ‘The Art of Alienation’ and a standout performance on The Tommy Tiernan Show earlier this year.
Speaking on ‘The Observer’, God Knows says: “This track is about our current state of the world and how we navigate in it. It’s really me genuinely observing what is happening around us, namely the hardships globally and having to exhale after a long day of work and having to do it again tomorrow. This is a present, honest reflection of “It’s hard out here man, I feel it too”.
Dreddy, who features on the tracks says: “The chorus is about hearing a story from a bird with a clipped wing that still flew. it’s about hearing from someone that has overcome.
Flying with clipped wings is a metaphor for doing what people said could not be done. Succeeding despite obstacles and hurdles. When it comes to rap/hip hop these words we write can at times mean a lot to people, turning them into scriptures it’s only ours for a short time, once released they then belong to the world”.
