Blanco Drops New Mixtape ‘Gilberto’s Son’

South London rapper Blanco returns with new mixtape ‘Gilberto’s Son’. The rapper is one of the most formidable talents in UK music, helping to forge a distinctly British take on drill before broadening his scope still further. Infatuated with Brazilian culture, Blanco has absorbed this into his sound – alongside other elements – to create a heady, individual brew.

Out now, ‘Gilberto’s Son’ features some quality guests, with the mixtape packed with fresh ideas. From solo work like the powerful ‘Soda Lime’ though to the soulful atmospherics on Grace Carter feature ‘Trustfall’, it’s a project with incredible breadth. ‘OneEighteen’ rides an Amapiano-adjacent beat, while ‘Charlie Sloth’ returns Blanco to his drill roots, reuniting him with close friend and Harlem Spartans alum MizOrMac.
