Biography

British rapper from Northampton, England, UK. Well known for his notoriously gritty and rough instrumentals and raw, politically charged lyrics, especially around Brexit and Theresa May’s tenure as Prime Minister of the UK. His stage name originates from his childhood nickname; Frampton had a speech impediment which caused him to speak slowly and with a drawl. Originally known as Slow Ty, he changed it to Slowthai when he released his first single in 2016. His album "[Link]" (2019) was shortlisted for the Mercury Music Prize (2019).

LYRICS

Hey
Wish I got there sooner (Woah)
Hey
No money, not a pot to piss
But a fuck to give, haven't got one
I'm ridin' shotgun in the 306
Eat your Weetabix, feelin' love drunk
Sometimes I wanna kill myself 'cause failure has never been a option
Whilst living in the real world, I don't feel like I'm a real person
So, tell me, did you say something? Did you say something? No, you're paranoid
It's like I ain't got a choice, misunderstood churchboy and I always been a happy boy
You either work hard for it or you jacked up in the gym on steroids
I couldn't deal with half the things, so I put 'em in the pile, it's worthwhile
No hеart from my hard drive, I'm glass-eyed, cryin' out, I nеver know what's in store
Every time, they talk, they talk, they talk, and with listenin', it comes up short
I wanna press reset, I wanna press restore
I wanna swim, get drenched, deep Holy Water
Baptized in the blood of my enemies
I just shrug and beef heavily

Scold me, no more diving when I'm outta my depth
Tie me up and leave me when I'm holdin' my breath
Oh, what a waste of time, what a waste of time
Low, at the best of times

Question everything, but fuck it, I'm free
Draggin' my feet, I sweep the dirt underneath
My Persian rug, I'm trustin' no one but me
You are what you eat, I must be nothin' (I feel like)

Oh, we all get sad sometimes, it's a wishbone with no backbone
Phone distracts me from my life, make plans but I'm bound to cancel
Roam in bait, don't provide a tariff with no hassle
Roam in bait, don't provide a tariff with no hassle
Oh, we all get sad sometimes, it's a wishbone with no backbone
Phone distracts me from my life, make plans but I'm bound to cancel
Roam in bait, don't provide a tariff with no hassle
Roam in bait, don't provide a tariff with no hassle

Scold me, no more diving when I'm outta my depth
Tie me up and leave me when I'm holdin' my breath
Oh, what a waste of time, what a waste of time
Low, at the best of times
Low, at the best of times
Low, at the best of times
Low, at the best of times
