Leeds-based R&B prodigy Cole LC teams up with rapper Haze Da Martian for this brilliant UK garage-inspired record titled "Ice Cream Jeans". The upbeat collaboration is as refreshing as the summer breeze and brings the old with the new in an undeniable fashion as Cole LC belts out earworm melodies and confident raps over the bouncy drum groove and lush textures laid before him. Haze is not far behind as he enters the fray with his bravado-driven vivid performance about some steamy sessions and being bold enough to make moves like he never could before. Together the duo delivers this satisfying nostalgia-inducing piece that everyone can rock with.
The accompanying visual also follows suit with engaging visual aesthetics, colourful set pieces and seamless cut scenes that help bring the song to the screen.
Like so many in his generation, Cole’s inspirations are drawn from multiple influences and he honed his skills and built an audience from sharing original tunes and freestyle raps across social media and busking from an early age. After releasing his first mixtape in 2021 and performing at Reading, Leeds and Parklife festivals Cole is ready to drop his first full length release in 2023, a collection of tracks that again pushes against genre boundaries and showcases a varied vocal talent and deft lyrical insight into his world in his hometown.
