Wiley The Ascent

Following on from his massive Number One ‘Heatwave’, Wiley’s new album is a big budget, star packed affair (hello, Emeli Sande, Tulisa and Kano). Expect more post-Grime, crossover party LOLs to come your way. The Ascent succeeds Evolve or Be Extinct which was released in January 2012. The album features a variety of experimental genres, varying from rap to grime. The lead single "Heatwave", featuring Ms D was released on 27 July 2012, peaking at #1 on the UK Singles Chart - becoming Wiley's first solo number one. The second single "Can You Hear Me? (Ayayaya)" featuring Skepta, JME and Ms D was released on 28 October 2012. The third single "Reload" featuring Chip and Ms D, was released on 24 February 2013, a month before the album release.
