Sending a message of encouragement in overcoming adversity, Headie One employs the talents of dubstep icon Skrillex in his new single, “Make a W.”
The track appears on the ascendent hip-hop artist’s sophomore album The Last One, out today via Sony UK. It features the free-flowing rap stylings of Headie One and fellow Brit AJ Tracey as well as BEAM, a frequent collaborator of Skrillex, whose production swirls with hypnotic melodies and resounding bass.
The languid beat contrasts the pace of Headie One’s spitfire lyricism throughout the song’s entirety, creating a compelling ebb and flow. He sends a message of proverbially spinning straw into gold, and trusting yourself to “Make a W” even when obstacles arise.
Skrillex is no stranger to hip-hop collaborations, releasing fan-favorite tracks alongside the likes of Rick Ross (“Purple Lamborghini”), The Game (“El Chapo”), 2 Chainz (“Febreze”) and Pusha T (“Burial”), among other rap icons. “Make a W” follows his immensely popular collaboration with Hamdi and TAICHU, “Push,” which dropped in May.
