Who is Sam Wise? Well, I discovered this guy through his feature on a random song that was playing on Spotify, immediately adding it to my playlist. It’s called Haze and is by Jesse James Solomon. Then, looking at recommendations from this song, I discovered a track called Don’t Run, which also features Sam Wise. This is probably the most similar I’ve seen the UK rap scene be to Amercian modern rap. For example, this track is very similar to the popular style of Playboi Carti.
Haze – Jesse James Solomon (feat. Sam Wise)
Don’t Run (feat. Sam Wise, BlazeYL & Mally)
Just from listening to these two songs, I immediately understood how versatile this South London artist is. This lead me to checking out his latest album Free Game, which released in 2021. Throughout the whole project, the beat choice for each song was perfect, and the flow for each song was perfect. Honestly, I don’t know how I haven’t heard this album before, without accidently stumbling across it. One of my favourite track from here is There’s Not Enough Time.
To me, the vibe of Sam Wise’s music is similar to that of Knucks. The chilled out tone and beats within both artists are very alike.

Twinning (feat. Tiggs Da Author)
This latest track from Sam Haze features Tiggs Da Author, another underrated rapper whos features are incredible. Shout out to Taz Tron Delix, the creative director of this video as well. The visuals are incredible.
chasing paradise (EP)
chasing paradise is the latest EP Sam has released. It’s a perfect length for an EP, and each song is also a perfect length (I feel sometimes artists can ruin track by making it too long). His ability to tell a story, and his flow both go hand in hand to make this EP what it is. If there’s one song you listen to from this article, it has to be hometown featuring Phoenix Laoutaris.
