'Crud' by Roxxxan is FIERCE! She knows exactly who she is and she is not afraid to show it. A catchy grime beat paves the way for the no-nonsense lyrical medley. The visuals are direct flows coupled with grim masked figures. Murky shades of red and brown make this a must for the devilish Halloween season!
Back on her A-game, Roxxxan comes with fury, fire and all out ‘Crud’ on her latest release.
The Londan via Birmingham emcee, already famed for her ferocity on the mic, digs deep for this one. Her flow and energy at the sharpest they’ve ever been, showing her highly charged and deeply fuelled passion for the love of emceeing. Roxxx smashes out expression in abundance for delivery of the bars with long-term collaborator Mikey J on
production, emphasizing her freshly revived hunger on the
disgusting beat.
Although Roxxxan has always shown impenetrable
confidence within her music, like any emcee that came
up in the major fame years (2009-11), she has had to
endure the bumpy road of remaining consistent,
respected and relevant. After having a break from
the scene she returned last year with an honest,
genuine and engaging account of her journey via
the release of ‘Back To Live’ documenting some
tough times for her including her anger and
frustrations at the scene, time spent living in a
hostel and her place being raided by police. The
track served as both the end of a difficult chapter
and the beginning of something new.
Over recent months things have started to
bubble and Roxxxan has suddenly started
popping up in photos at studio sessions and
with fellow emcees. With Roxxx firmly in a
new zone, the release of ‘Crud’ flings open the
door on her re-emergence.
