  • Rejjie Snow – Dear Annie

    February 16, 2018 - By 

    Rejjie Snow had been knocking around for the best part of a decade now without a “proper” release under his belt (though 2017’s The Moon & You mixtape was excellent). In the six years since he broke onto the scene with ‘Trumpets’, the Dublin-born rapper has gone from being a YouTube buzz artist to collaborating with Joey Bada$$, supporting Madonna and hanging out with King Krule so fast that it’s hard to know exactly when the turning point really was. Any one of these things would have been the dream come true for a boy from Drumcondra and yet Mr. Snow – real name  Alexa Anyaegbunam – achieved…

  • Rejjie Snow – The Moon & You

    May 24, 2017 - By 

    “Free mixtape this month. Just for the fans. Everybody else can suck my d**k.” In spite of his tweets, there’s no way Rejjie Snow’s The Moon & You is going to avoid attention from critics. Since his early YouTube videos blew up as a teenager, the Drumcondra rapper has become  something of a critical darling: his off-kilter style found frequent comparisons to Earl Sweatshirt, and his debut EP Rejovich topped the iTunes chart ahead of Kanye West and J Cole upon its 2013 release. It might seem strange that a Dublin rapper would hold such high international regard, but Snow is truly…

  • Stream: Rejjie Snow – Purple Tuesday (feat. Joey Bada$$ & Jesse Boykins III)

    May 9, 2017 - By 

    Rejjie Snow has released the first track off of his forthcoming free mixtape The Moon & You, set for release May 18.  ‘Purple Tuesday’ is a subtly jazzy cut of laid back G-Funk featuring a verse from Joey Bada$$ and a soulful refrain Jesse Boykins III. The track follows from a sold-out homecoming show in Dublin last month as part of his UK and Ireland tour as well as the overcast homage to the capital that was the excellent video for ‘Flexin’. Speaking of The Moon & You to The Fader he has explained that, more so than a mixtape, the release will be “. .…

  • Stream: Rejjie Snow – Flexin (feat. Ebenezer)

    March 29, 2017 - By 

    Dublin native Rejjie Snow has unveiled his second track of the year in the form of ‘Flexin’. Produced by  Rahki (who also worked on his previous releases ‘Crooked Cops’ and ‘Pink Beetle’) and featuring a frenetic refrain from Ebenezer, the cut is yet another tightly wound string to Snow’s bow. Taken from his forthcoming album Dear Annie set to drop later in the year on 300 Entertainment, ‘Flexin’ is another showcase of Rejjie’s ferocious, brazen flow and statement of intent with cutting, alliterative verses stomping over hard-hitting, symphonic production. If you had been sleeping on Rejjie Snow’s output, about now would be the time to wake up. Not…

  • Watch: Rejjie Snow – Pink Beetle

    November 1, 2016 - By 

    Was your Halloween not quite spooky enough? That case of the hangover terrors you have after the long weekend not quite sufficient? Rejjie Snow will solve that for you. Yesterday, the Dublin born rapper unveiled the feverishly uncomfortable video for ‘Pink Beetle’, his second track to be released via  300 Entertainment, the same label who will be releasing his debut LP. The aim of the video, according to Rejjie, was to emulate the “hyperreal imagery that one envisions when thinking about going to the dentist”. And that he has done. The unsettling, surreal, squirm inducing visuals manage to trigger every uncomfortable image that…

  • Stream: Rejjie Snow – D.R.U.G.S

    September 21, 2016 - By 

    Doubling up as his first release since signing to Lyor Cohen’s 300 Entertainment (home to Fetty Wap, Young Thug et al) Rejjie Snow is streaming his stellar, subtly euphoric new single, ‘D.R.U.G.S’. Featuring a laid-back Rahki-produced beat, it’s a typically slick, blip-heavy three-minutes from the fast-rising Dublin rapper and the lead single from his forthcoming – and long-awaited – debut album.
