**OUT TOMORROW** Denmark's Al Jacobi Releases New Track 'R U UP?'


Al Jacobi is a hip-hop artist from Denmark, inspired by the likes of Kanye West, Jacobi produces music that is akin to mainstream American hip-hop with flickers of punk influence. ‘ R U UP?’ is set to be released tomorrow, February 25th along with its music video.


Al Jacobi featured on RnB artist, Simone Tang’s track ‘Smiling’ back in March last year, and has since released, ‘All My Bitches’ and ‘iLove’. ‘R U UP?’ is his newest release, about a booty call you can’t get off your mind. With its deep distorted beats, memorable chorus, and alternative bassline, you can definitely hear the current US Hip-hop influence within the track. However, the track does have a slight punk edge to it, making it that little bit more alternative in comparison to the mainstream hip-hop and rap music.


“Because I can’t stop fucking with you, so are you up? Because I can’t stop fucking with you, now are you up? Can’t stop fucking with you, so are you up? Because we can’t stop fucking, c-c-can’t stop fucking.”

I state 'current US hip-hop influence', because the song refers to love in the modern age. Casual sex resulting in yearning for more than just a touch, but suppressing your feelings in spite of them being unrequited. 'R U UP?' is the second song in a series of five, each of which occupy the theme of love in the current digital age. A new song from the project is set to be released every three weeks. 

'R U UP?' will be available to stream on all major streaming platforms tomorrow, February 25th 2020. For further releases or information, keep up to date with Al Jacobi’s social media’s - Facebook / Twitter / Instagram / YouTube
