Last time I spoke with up and coming rapper Mense, he’d just released the underground banger Dear Kelisha.
Â
And just to prove that it was no fluke, he’s just released what’s sounds like yet another fire track. In this chat we discuss what influenced the song.
PM: Tell me the story surrounding the track?
MENSE: The track is really about the journey coming from losses distractions fake loyalty and turning that into growth.
I wanted to show that people only see you winning at the end but they don’t see the pressure the silence and the sacrifices.
Â
It blends confidence with vulnerability, that mix of moving smart staying lowkey and still celebrating the wins.
Â
The vibe is about staying focused trusting the process and not letting the noise throw you off.
Â
Â
PM: What are some of the things you’ve learned about being in this business that you wish you’d known before?
Â
MENSE: I’ve learned that not everyone around you wants to see you win. Some people switch when they see you levelling up.
Â
I wish I knew earlier how important it is to protect your energy, keep your circle small, and move smart.
Â
In this business, loyalty gets tested quick, so you’ve gotta stay focused on your goals and not get distracted.
Â
PM: Has there been a feeling of catharsis releasing those thoughts and emotions?
