London singer/rapper/producer/DJ, Cooly G, rose to prominence through her early UK Funky releases. With a versatile talent spanning multiple genres, she has become a respected figure in the music industry. Her unique sound and captivating performances have garnered comparisons to artists such as Ikonika, Zomby, Kode9, and many others.

Cooly G's music is characterized by its infectious beats and innovative production techniques. She effortlessly blends elements of funk, hip-hop, and electronic music to create a distinct sound that sets her apart from her peers. Her tracks are known for their catchy melodies and thought-provoking lyrics.

As both a singer and rapper, Cooly G brings a dynamic energy to her live performances. Whether she's on stage or behind the decks as a DJ, she never fails to captivate audiences with her infectious energy and undeniable talent. Her ability to connect with listeners on an emotional level is what truly sets her apart as an artist.

although she's been associated with the development of the new uk house and funky sound, cooly g's productions have always existed in their own hinterland. her music is full of stripped down, tribal post-garage beats graced by dubtracted vocals, incomplete seductions and glimpsed vexations, uttered over empty spaces and lush washes. on 'playin' me' she displays the full spectrum of her sound, plummeting from her sometimes melancholy, sometimes romantic songs through to her more menacing, trackier style. recorded without any frills in her home studio, the album simultaneously recalls a legacy of black british music, filtering the female pressure and reggae lilt of lovers rock's kitchen sink dramas, the sweet seduction of 80s-flavoured quiet storm soul, through to sour, bitter-sweet synths, and the polyrhythmic dub decay of early jungle and tough tribal drums.
