Loyle Carner has returned with a new single, Hate.
Driven by a steady beat and a looping piano melody, the powerful, angsty track marks the South London rapper's first solo release since Yesterday back in 2020, which followed his 2019 second album 'Not Waving, But Drowning'.
Since then, he has featured on a handful of tracks by other artists, along with appearing at Wireless Festival this past weekend, where he joined Knucks on stage. Carner said:
"One of the few songs made from a hateful place. I was angry at the world, frightened and overwhelmed. It’s unfiltered. Really just a stream of consciousness that builds to an understanding that hate is rooted in fear. It reminds me of times the red mist takes over, and how alone you feel when the rest mist passes. Arrogant and self-righteous but at the same time vulnerable and somber. I listen to this one in my car, at night. Especially after an argument when you need to get space and take a breath."
