Kojaque has dropped the last single from his upcoming album Phantom Of The Afters.
New York rapper Wiki features on the track ‘Johnny McEnroe’ which arrived with a video today, shot in NYC with the pair supping Guinness.
“It’s one of my favourite songs off the record. I was in New York in May 2022 on my first US tour, and had been trying to collaborate with Wiki for a while. I was booked in to work with Tony Seltzer the day after my headline show, and right beforehand got a text to say Wiki was going to come through. It was a surreal experience cutting the track with two guys I’ve been a fan of for 8 years. I’ll never forget it.”
