The feature list is impressive; featuring Offset, Wretch 32, M Huncho, Central Cee, Tion Wayne, and AJ Tracey, among others. While it is certainly impressive to feature two of Drill’s biggest artists (Tion Wayne and Central Cee), the greatest feat is having Offset from Migos on their feature list. Broadening international appeal is a goal for artists in Drill, with Headie One featuring with Drake last year on ‘Only You Freestyle’. While massive UK artists like Skepta have found themselves featuring on American tracks, having American artist feature on UK tracks is indictive of a changing tide; UK music is ammassing greater prestige and recognition across the pond.

D-Block Europe have had an active 2021. They made headlines earlier in the year when Aitch made a suprise visit on stage with DBE during Parklife, as well as dropping a new single in the summer, ‘Lake 29′. The track, a celebration of DBE member Young Adz’s 26th birthday, was their first single after their debut LP released last October, The Blue Print – Us vs. Them. The project had a similarly impressive feature list, with Aitch and Stefflon Don contributing verses. The album peaked at No.2 in the charts, and with the upcoming project having a more impressive feature list, it is likely The Blue Print‘s success will be matched if not superseded.

Alongside the announcement of Home Alone 2, they simultaneously dropped a new single, ‘No Competition’, complete with a music video. At the time of writing, the video has amassed a quarter of a million views within 20 hours. The track, two minutes in length, serves as a little teaser for their highly anticipated new album.
