Ascending rapper Mowgs arrives with a gripping new single "Girl From Erdz", the third teaser of his forthcoming project Bare Necessities.

Putting his storytelling skills front and centre, the Birmingham rap star lets us in on the tale of a young girl facing some difficult situations in her late teenage years. Through slick wordplay and understated delivery, he flows with precision over the Liam Durrant and Prince Baza-produced beat, relaying the tale with sensitivity and impact.

Bare Necessities arrives May 6. While we wait for that, press play on the Leon Matthews-directed video below to see Mowgs' bars brought to life, word-for-word and in harrowing detail.
