Bradford-born Makh is a rapper, vocalist and record producer. Along with creating his own music, he is also a presenter for the BBC Asian Network. Born to Sikh parents but with a multicultural, multi-ethnic family, his music takes inspiration from hip-hop, reggaeton, soul and rock, with sprinkles of South Asian instrumentation, resulting in his own unique stamp on popular genres, such as on his new single, “Closer”.

“Closer” combines elements of hip-hop and R&B and immediately draws you in on first listen with captivating vocals before the rousing beat kicks in. The song is elevated further by its infectious hook, which will no doubt have everyone singing along, and Makh’s candid lyricism about being scared to fall in love.

Elaborating further, Makh says, “It’s a love song but not the typical heartbreak or falling in love story. It’s about someone who really wants to fall in love but is scared of being vulnerable again. It’s about the struggles with letting ourselves be open and trusting again, especially after you’ve been hurt. It’s a real-life situation and circumstance that people face.”

“Closer” is only Makh’s second single after arriving on the music scene with debut release “You What” in summer 2021, but it’s already very clear what a huge talent he is. Starting out the year with a bang, it’ll be exciting to see what else he has in store for 2023 as he positions himself as one to watch. “Closer” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://lnk.to/MakhCloser.

Artist Prymrr returns tomorrow, October 6, 2026, with her powerful new single "Sick Of It," accompanied by an official music video that brings the song's themes of frustration, intensity, and breaking free. "Sick Of It" captures the feeling of reaching a breaking point and finally refusing to hold back. With an emotionally charged sound and Prymrr's unmistakable energy, the track transforms frustration into empowerment an anthem for anyone who has ever reached the point of saying, enough is enough.

The official music video takes a cinematic and immersive approach, utilizing a one-shot filming style inspired by the visual intensity and continuous-shot storytelling of Netflix's Adolescence. The uninterrupted camera movement creates an intimate, immediate experience, drawing viewers directly into Prymrr's world as the story unfolds. Visually, the video establishes a distinctive atmosphere through a black-and-white foundation, subtle muted earthy tones, and carefully placed pops of red. The restrained palette creates a raw, moody aesthetic, while the flashes of red heighten the emotion and intensity of key moments.

The release will also be followed by a special dance concept video, coming soon. The concept video features dancers from the hometown studio where Prymrr danced as a child, creating a meaningful full circle moment that connects her early dance roots with her evolution as an artist. The visual will also incorporate dancers from the studio, adding a personal touch and nod to the place where her journey began.

Choreographed by Dez Penn, the dance concept transforms "Sick Of It" into movement, using choreography to express the song's themes of tension, frustration, strength, and release. Bringing together dancers from Prymrr's hometown studio Penn Point Dance Academy makes the project especially personal, celebrating the foundation that helped shape her as a performer.

Together, the song, official music video, and upcoming dance concept present different sides of the same story: reaching your limit, confronting what has been holding you back, and just finding the strength. "Sick Of It" is about that moment when you stop explaining yourself and realize you've had enough," says Prymrr. "It's taking everything you've been holding in and finally letting it out."

"Sick Of It" and the official music video are out October 6, 2026, on all major streaming platforms and YouTube. The dance concept video is coming soon.
