Following last year's In The Loop tape: a spellbinding 10-track epic of close-calls and cautionary tales, south London rapper DC returns with a brief life update on new track "The Latest".

He links up with producer and multi-instrumentalist Emil who knits together a string of lush textures for DC's ruminative bars. A thumping bassline and heavy rhythms carry the production, lacing pieces of melody into the sonics while we catch up with DC's recent adventures from the 12 months since that

Although the track clocks in at just 1 minute 36 seconds, it's more than enough time to be reminded of DC's proficient pen skills when it comes to absorbing storytelling and scene-setting. "The Latest" is a bold sign of DC's return so hit play below.
