Rising North London rapper IYKZ (formerly Ikes) is back with brand-new single “They Know (Wan Mo)”, a collaboration with fellow Londoner Maleek Berry.
Speaking on the record, IYKZ says, “‘Wan mo’ means ‘they know’ in the Nigerian Yoruba language. I’m Igbo but Maleek is Yoruba, so we blend both dialects throughout the record. It’s a patriotic street anthem. We want our voices to be heard. We linked up and did everything in Maleek’s bedroom. By the end of the session, we knew we had something special.”
With Maleek producing much of IYKZ’s early material, it’s not the first time they have collaborated or appeared in the same video together. "Working with IYKZ is always magic”, Maleek says of their partnership. “I love working with people who have a deep understanding of music, so it's always bound to be something special when we collaborate."
