Meekz returns with his first new music of 2025, the aptly titled ‘Bk2Life.’ Cutting loose over a classic ‘Soul II Soul’ sample, the track fuses timeless hip-hop and R&B vibes with Meekz’s punchy flow, razor-sharp wordplay, and unmistakable energy.
A bounce-heavy, infectious cut, it proves he can make music that hits for everyone – from the streets to the dancefloor – while staying true to the city that shaped him. Teased across socials this summer, ‘Bk2Life’ has already racked up over 15M TikTok views, marking part one of Meekz’s return – with more dropping very soon.
With ‘Bk2Life’, Meekz makes a powerful statement of intent after a nine-month pause, marking a fresh chapter with his head screwed on and his artistry sharper than ever. The visuals, which see him cutting loose and stepping back into freedom, underline the track’s spirit of renewal and resilience.
For Meekz, flipping the ‘Soul II Soul’ classic also taps into deep cultural roots – a sound heard in kitchens up and down the country, and one that takes him back to memories of his mum’s generation. Nostalgia has always been a constant thread running through his catalogue, from early cuts like ‘6 Figures’ through to this latest release.
Manchester’s masked rap powerhouse continues to storm the UK scene, racking up co-signs and features from Dave and Central Cee, a #12 mixtape in the OCC charts, and 70M+ streams in 2024. ‘Bk2Life’ proves Meekz is an artist in full flow, with the appetite and vision to remain one of UK rap’s leading voices.
