Back with new music for the first time in over a year, UK rap powerhouse AJ Tracey has returned with his dexterous new single ‘Reasonable’ – a hard-hitting dose of rap that sees the West London-hailing musician soaring effortlessly across the Rio Leyva, Manso & Taz Taylor of the Internet Money collective-produced beat. “I don’t rap on these beats, I glide” he states, setting the scene for what’s to come.
‘Reasonable’ lands in the wake AJ’s sophomore album ‘Flu Game,’ a project that charted at number 2 in the UK Official charts, and saw AJ showcasing an impressive 16 tracks, with tantalizing international features, including Kehlani, T-Pain, SahBabii, NAV and Millie Go Lightly. ‘Flu Game’ solidified AJ’s inimitable position in the UK rap scene, as he embodied the role of a fictional basketball player, signing a lucrative deal with major franchise Revenge Athletic ahead of a crucial playoff game. At the forefront of pushing creative boundaries, ‘Flu Game’ and the surrounding campaign drew influence from the story of Michael Jordan and his Chicago Bulls team in the late 90s.
