West London rapper Bawo has kicked off his 2026 campaign with the release of new single And Still, arriving via his independent imprint, Say Nothing Records.

Built around cinematic strings and distorted vocal textures, the track finds Bawo in reflective yet determined form. His measured delivery cuts through a powerful, expansive instrumental, creating a record that feels both introspective and triumphant.

The release follows a landmark period for the MC. After dropping his acclaimed album It Means Hope Where I’m From in 2024, Bawo embarked on the Anyone Can Be A Hero tour, selling out shows across London, Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam and Brussels. Over the past year he has continued to build momentum through collaborations with Kojey Radical, Knucks, AntsLive, Sam Wise and DC, while also making appearances at Glastonbury and SXSW Australia.

Since emerging with tracks such as No Sleep, Starts With A Text and SKATE, Bawo has established himself as one of the UK's most distinctive rap voices, blending honest storytelling with melodic sensibilities. Support from BBC Radio 1, BBC 1Xtra, COLORS and leading publications has only reinforced his growing reputation.

With And Still, Bawo offers a confident statement of intent and an exciting first glimpse of what's next from one of West London's most compelling artists.
