"He's a singular artist—a storyteller in the vein of an author, emerging once-in-a-while to piece together the great London novel of this generation, each song a chapter in the beating heart of his experience in this city".
Jesse James Solomon’s laid-back vocals and poetic, introspective lyrics have earned the artist a cult following who have been showing support since the release of ‘Jesse from SE’, his 2014 debut EP. The enigmatic South London rapper who has collaborated with the likes of Giggs, Skepta, The Streets and Suspect dropped new music last year with ‘Ugly World’. It’s a mellow and melancholic track to reintroduce the artist to eagerly awaiting ears in his trademark stripped back style.
Solomon has previously collaborated with brands such as Tommy Jeans, Levi’s, Reebok and C.P Company, with the fashion industry consistently showing support to the young artist throughout his ascent. Whatever Jesse does next, his return is set to cause a wide-reaching stir.
