Today, Brooklyn-born, South East London-based rapper Goya Gumbani unveils the latest offering from his forthcoming album with new single “Manuva(s)”. The song was produced by and features renowned UK multi-instrumentalist and member of Ezra Collective, Joe Armon-Jones, and embodies the fluidity of sounds of this new generation of the London Jazz scene. Goya’s agile verses flow in lockstep with Joe’s flittering keys, as he delivers sharp verses about the challenges that arise on the journey of pursuing your dreams. The single’s accompanying visual is another ode to one of Goya heroes, Miles Davis, who sits nodding along to the beat in the hand drawn video that rotates between New York and London. The video is co-directed by Brice Birdsall & Kendrick Cumberbatch, animated by Niallycat and the typography was done by Sigurd Hundertmark.
