London wordsmith ENNY returns with new single ‘Champagne Problems’.
The rapper’s excellent single ‘Peng Black Girls’ blew up at the end of 2020, with a further remix – featuring Jorja Smith – seeming to underline her arrival. Amid a flurry of hype ENNY shared her debut project in 2021, the excellent ‘Under Twenty Five’.
Taking a moment to catch her breath, ENNY breaks her silence on a new single. Out now, ‘Champagne Problems’ is as personal as ever, except the framework has shifted a little – tackling her viral fame, she re-asserts that she doesn’t have all the answers.
With witty word play – we learn she likes her gin on the rocks – the caramel-smooth production comes from Beat Butcha and Tala, with some additional work from Will Yanez.
ENNY comments…
“The problems I’ve had this year aren’t last year’s problems but they’re problems nevertheless. I call them ‘Champagne Problems’, because they are definitely the problems I would’ve rather had two years ago. With this track, it’s nice to just get back to freestyling and rapping as an art.”
The video for ‘Champagne Problems’ is a stark, stylish black and white affair, shot in and around ENNY’s local community in Thamesmead, South London. Directed by Jean-Sébastien Degni, you can tap in below.
