Songer - WHAT IF I SAY NO? (Album Announcement)
Songer is entering a new era. After building serious momentum with recent singles “BONES” and “FIND MY FACE”, the Reading born rapper and songwriter has officially announced his forthcoming album WHAT IF I SAY NO?, landing July 24th, alongside a huge UK and Ireland tour later this year.
Following the success of his 2024 project THE PRICE OF THERAPY, Songer has continued to evolve both personally and creatively, carving out a lane that balances introspective lyricism with explosive, genre blending production. Now, with WHAT IF I SAY NO?, the Gold and Silver certified artist looks set to deliver his most refined and emotionally resonant body of work to date.
The 15 track project includes fan favourites “BONES” and “FIND MY FACE”, as well as a standout collaboration with fellow UK riser KiLLOWEN on “PLACES AND FACES”. Across the album, Songer leans further into the reflective storytelling and razor sharp honesty that have made him one of the UK’s most compelling young voices.
BBC Radio 1 tastemaker Jack Saunders recently gave “BONES” its exclusive first play, describing the track as a “deep, reflective storyboard”, praise that only added to the growing anticipation around the album. Since then, Songer has continued to dominate streaming platforms, earning support across major editorial playlists including Spotify’s New Music Friday UK, Apple Music’s New Music Daily, Amazon Music’s Fresh Rap, and Deezer’s Brand New UK.
At just 25 years old, Songer’s rise has been impossible to ignore. With more than 100 million streams in the last year alone, the Reading artist has cemented himself as one of the UK’s most exciting rap exports. His breakout track “Toxic” became the UK’s second best selling rap record of the year, spending eight weeks inside the Official Top 40, while “Vino Bandit” with K-Motionz continues its global climb, nearing the 100 million stream mark.
His catalogue of collaborations speaks for itself too, featuring names including Aitch, D Double E, Chase & Status, Becky Hill, Issey Cross and KiLLOWEN. On stage, Songer has proven equally unstoppable, from touring Australia and New Zealand with Dizzee Rascal to commanding major festival crowds at Reading Festival, Splash! Festival in Germany, and Boomtown.
With WHAT IF I SAY NO? arriving this summer and a major headline tour lined up for the end of the year, Songer is showing no signs of slowing down.
