The last Devlin F64 that was posted on YouTube and featured in my last post has received 800,000 views on YouTube so far. So I guess they thought it was necessary to make another F64 featuring Devlin so here it is the F64 #2 featuring Devlin.
The UK grime scene has done a really good job of keeping their scene fresh and new with the steady supply of freestyles and new songs they feature on these different YouTube channels.
I find it hard to continuously follow some artists in the US but in the UK they have a great outlet. Although they have a more familiar outlet like YouTube many of these artists would die to have the kind of marketing power and influence that comes with being signed to a label in the states.
The acoustic guitar makes you feel like you are really in the studio with the artists while they are performing. The guitar also displays Devlin’s versatility as a lyricist because he maintains his lyrical complexity while at the same time managing to tailor his flow perfectly to the instrumental.

If you are wondering what he says into the camera at the end he says, “Neeeeeev.” This is a quote from the movie Chopper which is based on an Australian gangster who is famous worldwide. Hint they call him Chopper because he chops his own ears off in prison to get transferred lol.
I love the acoustic guitar!
