Fredo – Independence Day

Cut through the coarse edges of ‘Independence Day, the latest album by west London rapper Fredo, and there lies another statement project.

After his pop-leaning tendencies of 2020, namely, the saccharine ‘Hickory Dickory Dock’, which has now disappeared off streaming services and been disowned by him – the 27-year-old rapper doubles down on his road-rap roots.

Throughout the 14-track album, Fredo spits bars upon a tightrope of taut tension yearning to be taken seriously again.
