"It's A New Year" And JonnoAQ Isn't Trying To Be A Secret Anymore

"It's A New Year" And JonnoAQ Isn't Trying To Be A Secret Anymore


February 27, 2019

Self-described as "SE15's best-kept secret", JonnoAQ seems ready to be a secret no longer if his latest drop is anything to go by. Entitled "It's A New Year", the Peckham rapper gets reminiscent on the laid-back track, spitting about lost friends, strained friendships and starting fresh for the new year.

The message is made even clearer with powerful visuals, such as scenes of kids playing in a cage and chilling on the block with snacks from the corner shop — acting as a flashback to happier, easier times — while his bars relay the message with tough punchlines and a pain in his voice that underlines the emotion of the situation he's talking about.
