LIMERICK rapper/producer Murli has released a video for his new single ‘Rocks’ directed by Steve Hall.
A Choice Music Album of the Year winner for his work with Rusangano Family and a second win by way of his production work for Denise Chaila, MuRli is a versatile collaborator and songwriter, widely sought after for both his pen and production.
The single follows the release of his latest EP ‘The Sky Has Windows’, with the reworked version featuring Dublin’s rapper Jafaris.
The EP showcases MuRli’s versatility by way of his mesmerising flows and lyrical dexterity, complemented by his singing and production skills. The EP also showcases rising star Godwin who supplied the beat for this new release. MuRli’s label mates God Knows and Denise Chaila share a subtle vocal over the mix.
MuRli says: “At times, you find yourself in a situation where you’ve got to hit rock bottom in order to finally propel yourself out of it. Out of those situations, often, resilience and perseverance are reared. With that being said, here’s a sweet song born out of a rocky year.
I’m blessed to be joined by one of my favourite artists, Jafaris, who kindly sprayed his stardust all over this track as well as Harrison Paul who’s got big things on the way. “
Jafaris says: “Rocks feels like a fusion of negro afro spirituals and hip hop that has a lot of honesty in it about both myself and MuRli’s mental state followed by our views on our scene.
This was my first time working with MuRli on a song and this feels like a great one for both of us to break the ice with. He’s extremely talented and also just super positive and bubbly to be around so the whole process was smooth.”
