Blessed has brought the pain on his new EP, Motion.

Sure to make a devastating impact on the game, his razor-sharp lyricism takes no prisoners. To assist with beats and bars he also calls on Crafty, Renz, Kruz Leone, Wilfred, SV, Gesher, Shannon Parkes, and Stigma.

Across the project's six tracks, he exhibits some of the toughest grime of the year, reflecting what Blessed has been through recently. Perhaps most crucial of all, it's a reminder to himself and us that sometimes you have to "ignore the emotion to push the motion", as he puts it, and instead be patient.

New music from Blessed is indeed a blessing; his last project came two years ago when he dropped the five-track EP, The Revival, but it's clear that he hasn't missed a step in his time away. Plug in below.
