The game's about to change with this showcase. No cap. No hype. Just cold hard facts.
On one mic, there’s a veteran with twenty-seven years of service among the top echelons of the drum ‘n’ bass scene whose legendary status is already assured.
On the other, there’s a young upstart rhymer who spat one verse on a live stream, shut it down, and immediately jumped from unknown to one of the most talked about artists in the game.
And they just happen to be father and son. You see, this is already a movie script and they’ve barely got going.
Eksman’s art was born in rave culture – where crowd-hyping has always been paramount – and over the years he’s been a driving force in adding layers of depth, complexity, and showmanship to the emcee’s toolbox. J Mulla’s path, however, has been focused on recording tracks, drawing on influences from drill, and crafting verses with flows and patterns that DnB has never seen before.
One style born on the stage, the other in the studio. You can see why this is such a big deal. It’s a showcase of two different generations of UK emcee blended and fused into one electrifying drum ‘n’ bass performance.
