I first Heard More One back in about 2011 when I found his channel on a random trawl through YouTube one day. His ability on the Mic, as well as his obvious enthusiasm for UKHH as a whole really impressed me. Over the last couple of years he’s been making extremely positive moves in the scene, from performing live alongside the legendary Mystro to hitting the stage at last years Boom Bap festival More One seems on an unstoppable rise. What’s even more encouraging is he seemed as interested in getting other rappers out to a wider audience as he did pushing his own sound, More’s desire to push his contemporaries into focus as much as himself is rare in a guy as young as he is. Since then, I’ve followed with interest both More and his brother Denziller, so my interest was raised when I heard he was Dropping a debut LP this year. “MorbidDenziller” will be dropping late May and to build up a little hype for the project More is dropping this Single “Number One Fan”.

We kick off with the Single’s deep jazzy Reklews produced bass rumble, which paves the way for More’s bars, elucidating on the changes that happen in life and the choices that lead us there. This is followed up by an Instrumentalist remix of the same track, a much more sparse affair scattered with Sax chops and some beautiful rambling keys. Out of the two I think Instrumentalist’s is the version of the track that I found more to my liking.
This is followed by a repeat of Intrumentalist’s beat without More’s bars for all them freestylers out there. Next up is “Mr Foley”, a short, sharp piano driven chop fest with More again flexing his lyrical muscles.

NOF is an excellent introduction to More One’s brand of lyricism and a hint of what’s to come in his debut LP, go cop that.

8/10 – A nice taster before the main course of MorbidDenziller
