Blanco channels his Angolan roots on new single 'Regime'

South London’s Blanco returns with his first solo release of the year, 'Regime' - a striking new chapter from the Kennington native and a glimpse into his forthcoming EP, 'Paradise on a Lifeboat', due out 21st November 2025. Following the energy of last month’s massive collaboration with Kidwild on 'Remontada', Blanco shifts gears on 'Regime', stepping into a more reflective and introspective space.

The track finds him gliding over kuduro-influenced production - a genre born in Luanda, Angola, during a period of civil unrest. It’s a subtle yet powerful nod to Blanco’s Angolan heritage, blending the rhythmic intensity and resilience of kuduro with his signature UK rap finesse. With this new drop, Blanco continues to prove why he’s one of the most distinctive and forward-thinking voices in British rap - an artist unafraid to innovate, to evolve, and to tell his story with depth and purpose.

'Regime' is out now on all platforms, with the full E.P ‘Paradise on a Lifeboat’ landing this November. If you haven't done so already, check out the new track below, and keep your eyes peeled for the E.P.
