What happens when French alternative R&B meets the heartbeat of East London? You get “Hackney” — a cross-channel anthem that’s less about borders and more about energy, connection, and pure vibe.
Wait… what’s UK Garage again?
Think shuffling 2-step beats, deep basslines, chopped vocals — the sound that made London dancefloors in the late ’90s and early 2000s. Now it’s back, reimagined for a new generation, and this time it collides with something unexpected: the dreamy, raw universe of French R&B.
Meet the artists:
- St3ph: London rapper, producer, and creative force. His sound is rooted in the streets of Hackney, shaped by UK Hip-Hop and Garage, always pushing boundaries. He doesn’t just make beats; he builds words and worlds.
- Tennin: Independent French artist, unapologetically unique. Her style blends alt-R&B, electronic textures, and soulful edge. Her voice feels both futuristic and intimate.
The track: “Hackney”
It’s a cultural handshake across the Channel. Imagine UK Garage’s adrenaline pumping alongside Tennin’s hypnotic vocals.
Why it matters:
Music flows, ideas travel, and energy spreads — no matter what the country.
So hit play. Turn it up. Borders can’t stop the beat.
