4Play Shapes the Sound of NSG’s The Big 6
UK-based production trio originating from Ghana and Jamaica, 4Play has stamped their sound across NSG’s new album “The Big 6,” producing 13 of the 14 tracks. The longtime collaborators continue their strong working relationship with NSG on this project.
The album’s only track not created by 4Play is “Sacrifice.” For everything else, the production team handled the beats.
The Big 6 boasts an eclectic mix of global collaborations, featuring artists from Ghana, Nigeria, the UK, France, and the Netherlands. With 4Play at the helm, the album delivers dynamic beats and rich soundscapes across standout tracks like “Venus” featuring UK singer LYVIA, “Tell Me” with French artist Tayc, and “Tesco” alongside Ghanaian rapper Medikal. Other notable productions include “Council Flat” featuring Jay Bahd, “Coi Leray” with Jeriq, and the electrifying “NFA” with Nigerian rap heavyweight Phyno.
4Play has been a long-time collaborator of NSG, and their growing impact on the group’s sound reinforces their position as one of the main drivers of its distinctive sound. With The Big 6, the group maintains their position as an influential group in the booming UK-Afro music landscape, spanning continents with inventive production and tracks that merge genres.
Building on the buzz from his last release “Wishes, Dreams & Reality”, Manchester’s own MC Jay Kurdy is back—and he’s turned the energy up a notch. His new track “You Gave Me Music”, featuring the smooth and soulful vocals of Rachel Chambers, is out now and has all the makings of a summer anthem. With a vibrant mix of Hip Hop, Dance, and Reggae, it’s catchy, upbeat, and impossible not to move to.
Right from the start of this new track, Jay Kurdy pulls me in with a funky, feel-good guitar riff that sets the vibe. It’s one of those tracks that hits that sweet spot—fresh but familiar, high-energy yet easy to vibe with.
While Rachel’s vocals provide warmth and emotion that truly elevate the song, Jay’s flow is as sharp as ever and glides through the beat with confidence and charisma. Their synergy on the track produces something that is both uplifting and quite groovy and one to get lost in this summer time.
