COZY

North London rapper HEN$HAW combines razor-sharp bars with producer goodbyechase’s irresistible trap beat on his first single of the year, ‘COZY’. After showcasing his versatility on ‘McCARTNEY’ and ‘TIMELINE’ released late last year, the rapper from Camden starts the year anew by bringing back to the sounds he knows best. With the constantly switching flows and bars peppered with wordplay, HEN$HAW tells us that he’s the homegrown talent we should all keep our eyes on.

“From when I was a squirt til I’m up my thirties

Man could never try and do me dirty and think they’ll get away with that

Cuh them punks too daft like Vader fam

Came back from the dead need paper stacked”

On production, goodbyechase sets the perfect backdrop for HEN$HAW to break his verse in two. “Oh wow / Holy cow”, he raps with the realisation of just how far he’s come in the past year. Director Sorin D Visuals finds a way to capture this mood in the video by placing the rapper in the spotlight of the capital’s late-night cityscape. The ease with which HEN$HAW delivers ‘COZY’ demonstrates that the rapper is getting real comfortable and gearing up to make his mark on the scene.
