Self professed to be a pit stop in his career, Sleepz explains how the project is a fusing of his past and present, and depicts the importance of trust and a support network to lean on.
Maintaining the significance of his early catalogue whilst leaning into a new sauce, Sleepz gives us a familiar introspection whilst weaving in and out of elements of rap, rnb, and afro fusion. The title track ‘Gino’s LP’ shows the versatility of his flows and his ability to strip the track back and let his poetic license take the forefront, whilst juxtaposed by the playful, old school groove of tracks such as ‘For The Ladies’.
Alongside high energy tracks like ‘Popular Front’ and ‘Take A Hit’, Sleepz has left room for deeper reflection on tracks such as ‘Choice’, written for men who, in Sleepz’ own words, “struggle to put their emotions on the line but have a lot they want to say”. Gino’s LP is out on all platforms 13th August 2023. GINO’S LP A pioneer of collaboration, Sleepz has unsurprisingly brought an impressive list of features to the LP, with some of Manchester’s finest making their mark including Black Josh, [K S R], HMD and Tantzz. Taking his listeners through a journey of emotions and revelations, Sleepz creates a project that not only meets people where they are in their own journey of self discovery, but leaves room for an upcoming higher volume of his music.
