North West London's Harry Crane Blends Rap, Jazz And Soul On New Album 'Keep Your Head Up'


December 07, 2020

Soulful wordsmith Harry Crane has released his third album, Keep Your Head Up, a nine-track tape of introspective lyricism that explores the conundrums of life, name-checking well-known sports stars past and present along the way. Crane's unique ability to use football themed metaphors to explore the self is deftly executed and makes for a refreshing listen.

Feature-wise, the 21-year-old is joined by India Shan ("Admissions"), Emiko ("Need Somebody") and Nix Northwest ("Numb") who aid him in creating a mellow album, fusing subtle elements of jazz and soul into the various strains of rap and hip-hop that he flits between so effortlessly.

Take in Keep Your Head Up below to see what all the fuss is about.
