British rapper Potter Payper has shared a brand new video for ‘Scenes’, directed by renowned British Director Troy Roscoe. The single is taken from his recently released highly-anticipated debut album ‘Real Back In Style’.
Elevated by expertly crafted cinematography, the visual finds Potter raising the bar once again. It’s yet another display of his thought-provoking storytelling, this time providing a more three-dimensional and movie-like experience for his fans. In true Potter style, he transports us further into his world, bringing to life every word that he raps.
Over ten years in the making, Potter’s highly-anticipated first-ever album ‘Real Back In Style’ is here and a defining moment for every Potter Payper fan, everywhere. The record is a true testament to his dedication to music over the last decade, betting on himself and surpassing every expectation he once had for his life. Raising the bar for UK rap, the album is a frank and deeply honest record that sees the award-winning musician bare all – his boldest and most considered body of work yet. Potter is no overnight success, his story thus far is one of highs, many lows, and in recent years, redemption. Centered on the finer details of Potter’s trajectory in life and in music, the album is an unflinching account of all that it’s taken for him to reach this milestone – sacrifice, loss, freedom – but above all else, it’s a moment of celebration for what has been a momentous journey. Eagle-eyed fans will notice that the album has no features present. Much like his earliest work, Potter is front and center and leaves no doubt as to the true extent of his pen.
This year also marks ten years since the release of Potter’s acclaimed first mixtape, ‘Training Day.’ Released in 2013, ‘Training Day’ was the first installment of what would arguably become one of the most iconic trilogies in UK rap history and home to some of his most recognized tracks to date. He continued to rise to prominence off the back of his legendary freestyles, demonstrating his versatility and commitment to fine-tuning his craft. The third mixtape ‘Training Day 3’ – released in 2020 – debuted at #3 in the UK Official Album Charts, making clear that Potter was back and here to stay. His follow-up mixtape ‘Thanks For Waiting’ paid recognition to all those who continued to support Potter during his hiatus, earning him his second Top 10 project and saw him reach entirely new heights. Hit-track ‘Gangsteritus’ featured in the Netflix series ‘Top Boy,’ landing Potter his first Top 20 single. He collaborated with Ed Sheeran on the ‘2Step’ remix, featured on Snoop Dogg’s ‘Snoop Dogg Presents’ LP, founded his own record label 36 The Label, and made his Glastonbury Festival debut – undoubtedly a monumental few years to remember and further statement of his unique musical talent.
