Headie One returns in full force with 'It Is What It Is'

Headie One is back and in his element with the release of his brand-new single 'It Is What It Is'. Answering fan demand following the success of his 2024 project 'The Last One', the UK rap heavyweight wastes no time getting back into his stride.

Marking his first solo release since the project, the track sees Headie reconnect with longtime collaborator 169 to deliver a menacing, ice-cold drill cut. His signature flow and sharp lyricism take centre stage, as he glides over the haunting production with ease, reaffirming his place at the top of the scene.

The drop lands alongside a slick visual treatment from DON Prod, and the cinematic aesthetic complements the track’s raw energy perfectly. It’s a clean yet gritty execution, keeping the focus on Headie’s commanding presence.

With 'It Is What It Is' already racking up early buzz, Headie One proves once again why he’s one of the most consistent and respected names in UK rap.
