After shaking up the scene with a string of viral moments since his release from HMP, Marnz Malone officially returns with his long-awaited mixtape Yaqeen, a powerful statement of belief, purpose, and resilience.
Recorded between the UK, Jamaica, and Dubai, Yaqeen features 15 tracks that blend street realism with introspective depth. The project boasts heavyweight collaborations with J Hus, Catch, Tunde, and Canadian rapper Bundog, while allowing Marnz to showcase his range, from raw storytelling to melodic reflection.
The mixtape opens with “Nana’s Veranda”, a fan favourite and deeply personal first single, filmed in Jamaica. He follows with “Splashin” featuring J Hus, a long-awaited link-up that captures the essence of UK rap’s duality: grit and groove. “Chy Cartier’s Adlibs” with Tunde, shot in Dubai, sees Marnz flex lyrical precision over an infectious sample-led beat, balancing menace and charisma with ease.
Slowing the pace, introspective cuts like “Blue Is The Warmest Colour,” “Misery Loves Company,” and “Ostracized” reveal a more vulnerable side, proof that his pen cuts as deep emotionally as it does technically.
With Yaqeen, Marnz Malone cements himself as one of the UK’s most compelling new voices, a rapper with both vision and conviction.
