Catching the attention of perennial UK electronic chart-toppers, Disclosure and Sam Smith, further expanded his fan base and reputation as a talent on the rise.

Featuring his father narrating throughout the entire project in an open and candid manner, collaborations also come in the shape of Tom Grennan, Ray BLK, Bobii Lewis and frequent collaborator Zulu. BBC 6Music tastemaker Mary Anne Hobbs said “I’m as excited by Kojey as I was by Kendrick Lamar when I first heard him”.
