Joe James' "Ignorance Was Never Bliss" with Loyle Carner hits the sweet spot between hip hop with stellar musicality and gripping lyricism.
UK-based rapper Joe James has been among the most consistent rappers in the UK hip hop scene with his steady output of releases. "Ignorance Was Never Bliss" is one of the standout gems from his new album The Ends, Never Ends - a body of work that's characterized by forward-thinking hip hop production and vulnerability. When they eventually arrive, the drums on this single are off-kilter, a quality that gives the track an interesting bounce while the pianos glisten across the mix. I also can't neglect to mention the stellar synergy between Joe James and Loyle Carner, as their introspective lyricism and confident delivery complement one another with remarkable ease.
