KNEECAP - Sayõnara / THE RECAP

B.  THE RECAP – KNEECAP and MOZEY

An astonishingly instant summer-smash in waiting, the West Belfast trio collaborated with drum & bass producer Mozey on the Kemi Badenoch baiting track which received its live debut at their momentous headline appearance at this year’s Wide Awake Festival in Brockwell Park, London. (Mozey appears courtesy of Rinse.)

Riding in on a punchy bassline and a drum track that effortlessly shifts from post punk rumble to drum and bass explosion, ‘THE RECAP’ is a massive statement of intent from the most talked about band in the world and is a guaranteed rallying cry at festivals across the country all summer.

Kneecap is a global phenomenon. Bursting out from a squat in Belfast, Móglaí Bap, Mo Chara, and DJ Próvaí are spearheading a moment in Irish culture, music, language, and cinema that has brought them to sensational levels. All it took was a generational talent to tear through conventions, expectations, and records. This is hip-hop at its most exciting – a potent and revolutionary force, smashing bans, barricades, and the occasional bottle of Buckfast.

Whether they’re rolling up to Sundance in a police Land Rover, encouraging tens of thousands of young people to learn Irish, breaking box office records in Ireland, storming stages at festivals with epic main stage sets, Kneecap’s message and mode of unity, community, and carnage, all comes with a revolutionary sound, and blistering live performances that have built a global movement of fans unified in the joy and sweat of soaking up fine art like no other.
