LET THE SAMPLE WORK
We’re setting the tone for 2024 with an exclusive performance from Atlanta-born rapper, Ben Reilly. Live from The Beehive, California - this is his captivating Sessions at AllSaints debut.
Reilly created Let The Sample Work with producer and friend WavelQ. For a long time Reilly rapped over the sample loop without a hook - but when the drums were introduced and the beat dropped, he knew what he wanted to say.
"THE MUSIC WILL SPEAK FOR ITSELF, ESPECIALLY IN INSTANCES WHERE MY LIFE IS CHANGING NOW. I’VE BEEN PUTTING IN THE WORK AND NOW IT IS STARTING TO BE SEEN. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO RECOGNISE IT."
Through slick lyricism and acute attention to detail, Reilly paints a picture of his own extended universe. Rapping with hungry urgency, he delivers diary-like entries on themes of self-doubt, perseverance and loyalty - his time in the spotlight is here, and we’re so excited to be part of his journey…
