UK TOUR - OCTOBER 2020 - ON SALE NOW! *
TICKETS: jehst.co.uk
* Dates rescheduled from March - tickets remain valid
01 Jehst '420 Every Day'
(W.Shields, O.Gash)
Produced by Jaisu
Recorded by Jehst at Hotel Alpha, Manchester, UK
Mixed by Kill Money
Mastered by Walter Coelho at Walter Coelho Mastering, Lisbon, Portugal
A wise man once declared that it's always 5 o'clock somewhere, and the same applies to Jehst, fresh from addressing the 'State of the Union', to check his calendar and confirm that it's '420 Every Day'. Astral Black producer Jaisu (Giggs, Sonnyjim, Big Twins, Planet Asia) releases a carefree, rainbow-lined cloud of bouncy jazz horns into the atmosphere for Jehst to get horizontal to, the mood distinctly warm and fuzzy as Billy Brimstone's elevated, discerning wordsmith status speculates on the readily available and what it takes to make dreams seem attainable.
Long “at the forefront of UK hip-hop” (The Guardian) and regarded as “the best British rapper of all time” (NME) and “the UK’s most natural rhymer who simply doesn’t waste words” (Clash), Jehst’s career has spanned the pre-millennium ‘Premonitions’, his enduring YNR imprint that has housed the homegrown sovereignty Kashmere, Cappo, Micall Parknsun and Verb T, and his last album, 2017’s ‘Billy Green is Dead’, described as a "a qualified triumph" by The Wire magazine.

lyrics
You play your hand
Or you fold up
It’s 420 every day
How we roll up
Something loud
What’s up with the old fella?
This one’s for my dogs
Old Yella
Studio dweller
Food seller
Who’s better?
This zoot tastes like
Strawberry Fruitella!
Two Stellas
And a pack of Raws
A few dudes put me under pressure
Will I back the cause?
I’m flattered of course
But truly I gotta decline
I got a lot on my mind
The apocalypse nigh
Keep my Wallabees dry
On these rainy days
And put one in the sky
Me and Jaisacc Haze
Paper plane pilots
We both recognise the same science
So all these nay sayers
Stay quiet
Like a library
Playing music from the corner
Like the brothers from Highbury
When I’m merry
The cherry pie’s very potent
I pen the poem
The devil’s in him
But they didn’t recognise the omen
No doubt
It’s 420 every day
How we roll up
Something loud
We’re gonna roll up the loud
Roll up the loud
Roll up the loud
Roll up the loud
No doubt
It’s 420 every day
How we roll up
Something loud
You play your hand
Or you fold up
It’s 420 every day
How we roll up
Something loud
What’s up with the old geezer?
This one’s for the ladies!
Mona Lisa
Picture perfect
The meteor hit the earth
Shift the tectonic plates
While I burn spliffs
High on these trees
See me where your bird lives
How you feel?
That ain’t something I’m concerned with
Discerning wordsmith
I work with these basic tools
The young scholar bus’ early
You were late for school
And left your homework
To the last minute
Your bars like the lunch room
Ain’t no class in it
I’m in my own zone
A place that you can’t visit
You play fight with punchlines
They ain’t hard hittin’
Hot damn it
Rock the planet
Like hard granite
Everybody want it
So they can’t ban it
Back by popular demand
Chick on my arm
Look like a young Chaka Khan
I'm the fucking Don!
No doubt
It’s 420 every day
How we roll up
Something loud
We’re gonna roll up the loud
Roll up the loud
Roll up the loud
Roll up the loud
No doubt
It’s 420 every day
How we roll up
Something loud
You play your hand
Or you fold up
It’s 420 every day
How we roll up
Something loud
Or you fold up
It’s 420 every day
How we roll up
Something loud

Love the hip-hop sound of the album and I really like these new artists that appear on the album that I had not heard before. I dont always get exposed to artists that are on the other side of the pond. Listening to these great mixs are a good way to get exposed to new artists I might never have gotten exposed too.
