Chunky releases new single and video for TLD Records
Manchester artist Chunky has shared a new single and video for ‘GNG (Guts N Grets)’, out this April on TLD Records.
Having spent several years hosting and MCing as part of collectives and parties, Chunky is now presenting a brand new solo single that evidences the hard work and time he’s put into his craft for over a decade.
His singular approach to rap, one that’s unique, genuine and inspired by his experiences of growing up in a city, sees him channel classic and contemporary African influences, as a means of connecting and platforming Black art from across generations – the result is something that’s completely fresh.
Chunky rose to prominence as a host at some of Manchester’s most iconic nights, the likes of Hoya:Hoya and Hit&Run, and as part of 10-piece band Riot Jazz. He now makes up a part of the Swamp 81 crew and Manchester collective LEVELZ, pushing the boundaries of rap and creating honest and intentional music.
Watch the visual for ‘GNG’ below, created by Benji Reid and Vince Fraser.
‘GNG’ will be out on 22.04.22 via TLD Records.
