Aluna George feat Dreezy & Leikeli47 'Mean What I Mean' (Island Records)
With a second album coming in the autumn, Aluna George have been enjoying a good run.
Their latest cut, ‘Mean What I Mean’, is a powerful track with club swagger and an aesthetic that’s more in line with the DJ Snake sound of the past year than it is their own material. With female rappers Dreezy & Leikeli47 also empowering the track even more, there’s plenty to like here.
