Hamzaa kicked off proceedings with the single IN BETWEEN, featuring fellow burgeoning London artist Miraa May. It has already received acclaim, with Complex stating it’s “essential listening from the UK Soul newbie”, receiving its premiere on BBC Radio 1Xtra from DJ Target.

On the single, Hamzaa explains: “This record is about two powerful women coming together with a firm and unshakeable message. You can either be the peace, or the motion between the chaos and watch me grow cause we’re not stopping or changing for anyone!"

Take a listen to the full EP now.

Breaking onto the scene in 2018, Hamzaa caught the world’s attention with breakout single ‘Breathing Pt. 2’ featuring Wretch 32 and Ghetts (whose #2 album Hamzaa recently featured on), taken from her 2019 EP First Signs Of Me, followed by second EP Phases. Aged just 21, Hamzaa has been named by the Guardian and The Times as ‘one to watch’, has played sold out shows including a headline show at London’s Scala, critical acclaim (including a 4 star review from the Evening Standard), supported Anne-Maire and Mahalia on their UK tours, played BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend and more.

Hamzaa was also part of our Abbey Road Equalise studio session and virtual festival that we hosted as part of the activity for International Women’s Day in March. You can watch it back on our YouTube channel.
