One to watch: Pozer


Putting the angst in gangsta, the rising south London rapper brings a touch of vulnerability to his murky tales of drug deals in the ’hood on his debut EP

What makes him special is his producer RA’s expert take on Jersey drill and Pozer’s authoritative low-frequency flow, both perfectly calibrated with the deliriously relentless, knuckle-skin-stretching tension of his rhymes. The daily drudgery of exchanging drugs for money – Pozer usually on the sunnier side of the swap – with a scalpel-sharp eye for detail and endless euphemisms for knives. If you’re keen to know thediscombobulating mix of vulnerability and invincibility derived from concealing drugs and “Ramz” (Rambo knives) about your person in public, Pozer’s your man.
