Background[edit]
In August 2016, Giggs released his fourth album Landlord to positive reception, entering at number 2 on the UK Albums Chart.[citation needed] In early 2017, Giggs was featured on two tracks from Canadian rapper Drake's album More Life, 'No Long Talk' and 'KMT'. The guest appearances led to significant widespread attention for Giggs and his music. The same month, Giggs announced the Wamp 2 Dem mixtape on The SN1 Snow on Beats 1 Radio.[2]
Giggs described the mixtape as 'a response to Americans who criticise UK rap', stating: 'People wasn't really respecting England. Wamp 2 Dem was more showing where we're coming, [explaining that] we're the same as you.'[3]
The mixtape's artwork was unveiled in June 2017, while the release date was revealed on 4 September 2017 via Instagram.[4]
Promotion[edit]
Wamp 2 Dem was promoted by Giggs through Instagram, posting teaser trailers compiling online reactions to his verse from Drake's 'KMT', song previews and meme voiceovers.[5][6] Numerous billboards and posters were set up around London the week leading up to the release.[7][8]
Singles[edit]
The first single, 'Linguo' featuring Donae'o, was released on 29 November 2017.[9] The song peaked at number 28 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Giggs' first solo single to enter the top 40 and thus his highest-charting solo single to date.
Release[edit]
Wamp 2 Dem was released on 6 October 2017 for iTunes purchase and streaming via Spotify and Apple Music, as well as purchase through Google Play and Amazon. The mixtape was also made available for free download through Giggs' official website.[10]
