Confidently establishing himself in the underground across the past year, Nottingham talent HEX continues to imprint himself into mainstream consciousness with his latest release “Paranoia”, coming via 12Tone/ Parlophone with a distinctive sound that will continue the interest around the young artist.
In a compelling tale of loyalty, cynicism and the fast life of being in the music game, “Paranoia” brings vulnerability and unabashed flex while incorporating HEX’s reputable slick wordplay. Drawing you in with a lilting guitar sample before bursting into bass-heavy, trap production, HEX’s melodic vocals unify the track in a way that validates the serious interest around him right now.
His latest visuals artistically represent his ‘paranoia’ – through the abandoned apartment, the suspicious characters and pills all over the floor, we see a man struggling with vices while trying to deal with desolation, deceitful people and literally running away from his own thoughts and current situation.
