I’ve learnt that Liam has been in mammoth late-night recording sessions with garage producer KRUNCHIE.
Liam’s new collaborator, real name Anthony Bamgboye, has previously helped craft explicit hardcore rap tracks with MOBO winners STORMZY and KREPT AND KONAN alongside producing partner ZDot.
A source said: “Liam wants to make it clear that he’s not just about cheesy ballads. He’s a serious musician with many different strengths. “Krunchie has inspired Liam by teaching him more about a new area of music and hopes one of their tracks will be his debut solo single.”
A friend said: “Liam has always supported up and coming UK talent but he isn’t going down the grime route with the album. “He’s got sessions booked in with all the top producers in the US over the next few months.”
Liam has been working closely with Juicy J over the past six months
He released a snippet of his own rap track on Instagram in January and his vocals appeared on a leaked WIZ KHALIFA and JUICY J track in April.
