HAK BAKER WOBBLES ON COBBLES

There’s an immense sense of personal connection and emotionality throughout Hak Baker’s latest cut, ‘Wobbles On Cobbles’. The mellow, laid-back guitar loop accompaniment is a juxtaposing source of light beneath Baker’s gritty and very, very real words. Finding a middle ground between spoken word, beat poetry and rap, his delivery is endearing and clear, allowing every resonant word to ring in our ears. He touches on everything, from the NHS and the state of politics, to his own trouble with alcohol and those he knows who are in prison. ‘Wobbles On The Cobbles’ is both musically unique and an impressive display of modern storytelling. - Dan Peeke
