Overview:
· With his new album ‘Green Language’, Rustie takes a
confident leap forward, straddling references to hip hop,
grime, R&B and pop, whilst remaining grounded in his playful, bombastic style of electronic production.
· The album includes contributions from Rustie’s friends and
past collaborators. He teams up with Danny Brown, who he worked with on Brown’s 2013 album ‘Old’, for the hyper-brash ‘Attak’. The album also includes Rustie’s Numbers label mate Redinho on ‘Lost’, seeing the pair tackle and perfect the craft of the pop hook.
· Rustie’s second album expands on ‘Glass Swords’ with more finely tuned and carefully constructed songs, like the smooth R&B melody of ‘Dream On’ featuring Musinah, rhymes from Face Vega (Gorgeous Children) in the downtempo hip hop jam ‘He Hate Me’ and the anthemic grime track ‘Up Down’ featuring D Double E.
· ‘Green Language’ is named after the nickname for ‘the
language of the birds’. For Rustie, it echoes his attitude
towards music, too. “It’s a language that’s non-dualistic,
that speaks directly to your emotions without the mind
interfering with the message,” he explains. “And music is
like that for me.”

Wayne, Tinashe, Jamie xx.
