Former N-Dubz frontman Dappy has released a brand new single, ‘Spotlight’.

Dappy is known as one of North London’s most prominent rap exports, but with ‘Spotlight’ he gives us a whole new sound. The tender acoustic track highlights Dappy’s skills as a singer. He delivers soulful, emotional lyrics over a few simple guitar chords, discussing some of the hard times he’s been through, the lessons he’s learned and the people who have stuck with him along the way.

The song has been universally well-received online, with many grime reviewers expressing surprise at Dappy’s vocal talent, but appreciating the new direction and reinvention from this undeniably talented artist.

‘Spotlight’ comes after Dappy’s comeback track ‘Straight Facts’, which as the title suggests had Dappy discussing his life with brutal honesty. While ‘Spotlight’ shows us Dappy’s vocal range, ‘Straight Facts’ features some of the artist’s most accomplished, rapid-fire rapping.

Both tracks were recorded live on video, giving them almost a freestyle vibe, and showcasing Dappy’s skills as a performer.
