ODXC Drops New EP In the Dungeon: Chapter Two Alongside New Single “R T R Freestyle”

“Completely unexpected yet perfectly executed” — GRM Daily
“ODXC’s production remains impressive” — Link Up TV
Fast-rising producer ODXC has returned with his brand-new EP, In the Dungeon: Chapter Two, a six-track collection that incorporates the captivating fusion of drill, hip-hop, grime and R&B that the producer from Tottenham, north London, has become known for. The project also features previous singles “Margins” and “Don’t Reason”. Released last year, the pair of tracks went on to become his most streamed to date and marked him out as an artist to watch out for in 2022.
In the Dungeon: Chapter Two follows up last year’s In the Dungeon: Chapter One. Chapter Two is on track to be even bigger and sees the talented producer once again shine a light on future stars and collaborate with a host of different artists and vocalists from around the UK. And when paired with ODXC’s dynamic and versatile genre-spanning productions, it makes for a fascinating listen from start to finish.
Speaking further on the project, ODXC says, “As a producer, networking is very important to me and during the lockdown this became more apparent. I wanted to create an inclusive platform for all types of artists and genres, shining a light on artists who wouldn’t get the opportunity especially during the lockdown, which was hard for many people. I never like to pigeonhole myself, so the second chapter has a variety of sounds and genres like R&B, grime, rap and drill.”
The project is led by new grime single “R T R Freestyle”, which features north London MC Ben DSP. Elaborating further, ODXC says, “I have always had a love for grime, and I’ve wanted to work with Ben DSP for a while. Ben has been on my radar since I noticed him shelling down shows throughout 2020. This is our first release and not the last. We have great chemistry in the studio, so we will definitely cook up more tracks in the future.” Ben added, “Whenever I hear a grime or grime-inspired beat, it brings playful and fun bars out of me and this was no different. OD’s got good energy, so we just fed off each other really. First of many together I’m sure.”
“R T R Freestyle” and the rest of In the Dungeon: Chapter Two are available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://lnk.to/IntheDungeonChapterTwo.

Rapper 4t9 Sets The Tone For His Career With Powerful Debut Single “Freedom”

North London’s 4t9 isn’t just stepping into the UK rap scene – he’s kicking the door wide open with his debut single, “Freedom”. Blending hard-hitting drill beats with motivational lyricism, 4t9’s arrival feels bold, intentional, and impossible to ignore. While drill music often leans on themes of street life and bravado, “Freedom” carves out its own lane, focusing on self-belief, focus, and determination.
From the opening bars, 4t9’s delivery is sharp and direct. His tone carries a hunger that feels authentic, as he weaves between gritty observations and personal affirmations. The hook – “It’s been about freedom, it’s been about racks” – becomes a powerful mantra, embodying 4t9’s belief in chasing success on his own terms. There’s no reliance on empty bravado here; instead, 4t9 taps into the mindset of someone who’s faced challenges but refuses to let them define his path.
His verses showcase a knack for clever wordplay. Lines like “In Paris riding the metro / I’ve been wavy from the get-go / I still compete and I get gold / That’s the 9 on me like Crespo” highlight his ability to blend cultural references with sharp storytelling. He paints pictures of grind and grit, but it’s always laced with a forward-thinking attitude.
The track’s production matches this energy, with a brooding instrumental that balances dark, rolling basslines with crisp percussion. It’s the kind of beat that demands attention, creating the perfect backdrop for 4t9’s powerful delivery. Meanwhile, the track’s structure keeps momentum high, with the hook acting as a grounding point that ties the themes together.
Adding to the track’s impact is its visually striking music video, directed by ODXC. The visuals mirror the song’s intensity, capturing 4t9’s commanding presence as he delivers each bar with conviction. The sleek visuals, combined with the track’s unrelenting energy, make “Freedom” feel like a real statement piece.
With this debut release, 4t9 shows he’s not here to follow trends – he’s here to create his own lane. His blend of raw authenticity, sharp lyricism, and motivational energy makes this debut impossible to overlook. If “Freedom” is just the starting point, there’s no telling how far 4t9’s ambition will take him.
