Ms Banks Drops Off An Early Christmas Present With 'The Coldest Winter Ever 2'
Ms Banks has been on fire lately, with a tireless onslaught of back-to-back hits, and now she's back with one last treat for the year: the eagerly-awaited sequel to last year's The Coldest Winter Ever.
The Coldest Winter Ever 2 gathers together the rapper's recent smash hits such as "Bad B Bop", "Hood Bitch" and "Snack" with Kida Kudz. The rest of the 12-tracker features only a handful contributions, this time from Moelogo, Tiggs Da Author and Geko, leaving the planet-conquering rhymer to hold the limelight.
Despite the title, The Coldest Winter Ever 2 carries a slightly different vibe from the first edition, swapping the frosty atmospheres for something much more colourful and warm. There's a heavy influence of R&B, Afrobeats and Afropop here, but there star of the show is still Ms Banks' peerless bars.
This has undoubtedly been a massive year for Banks as we see her rise into one of the UK's hottest acts after years of mashing in non-stop work. Stream The Coldest Winter Ever 2 on all streaming platforms now.
