Available with Vinyl records London. Blue Vinyl Vinyl Records Heavyweight LP Bob Vylan When Bob Vylan won the first MOBO award for Best Alternative Music Act in 2022, the punkgrime duo took to the stage and used the platform to speak about how they managed to achieve the impossible as independent artists in a genredefying space. We released an album this year that we produced entirely, mixed entirely, recorded entirely, all from my bedroomso everybody thats here, bigging up Atlantic and bigging up Warner, fuck that, us man did it ourselves.It was an acceptance speech that rattled the room and built anticipation for their next projects.Humble as the Sun, the forthcoming album from Bob Vylan continues with much of the rage and urgency that they have come to be known and loved for, but this latest project shows that they are now stronger and wiser, bolstered by the wins and learnings that they have fought hard for along the way. The resulting tracklist aims to leave the listener feeling power alongside their anger, and brings a fresh and compelling blend of punk, rock, grime and rap together in an experimental way.Following on from the last album, Bob Vylan Presents the Price of Life, the message woven throughout Humble as the Sun remains dark in places but is highenergy, defiant and unapologetic in its critique of a broken social and political system that so many have fallen victim to, but feel powerless against.This album is for the underdogs, the ones who come out swinging and those who refuse to be defeated in the face of injustice, and aims to remind listeners that anger is a fire that can be harnessed and put to use. The album creation started from a conversation with the sun, which is, after all, a big ball of fire that sustains life.From masculinity to myths about the G Spot, the themes and topics explored on Humble As The Sun make for an often humorously empowering celebration of the peoples ability to endure, overcome and bring about change.The lyricism on this album is even more layered than their previous projects, still darkly humorous, antiestablishment and unforgiving but at times pauses to deliver muchneeded words of afrmation to listeners, You are loved. You are not alone. You are going through hell but keep going. Bobby assures the listener, ofering an antidote to the state of the world, aiming to give some power and agency to those who hear it. At a time when so little trust or faith exists between the people and the powers that be, Bob Vylan ofers out a hand in the despondent darkness that has overwhelmed so many in the shadow of a burning planet. They guides the listener to a place where they can see some light and feel empowered to do something, to fight back, to continue pushing forwards despite the challenges faced along the way.Mixing all of the best quintessentially British and Jamaican musical elements from punk to drum and bass, grime and rock, Bob Vylan creates a sound that reflects the state of the nation, at once voicing the frustrations that normal people have, while also highlighting ones ability to persevere, overcome hardship and to change.
