With “London Eye,” AntsLive shows again that he’s not just watching the rap game, but in it, flipping it, seasoning it to taste, one banger at a time. The North London profound returns with a track that feels both familiar and fresh. “London Eye” is an actual flex with deeper layers than a surface-level flex.
The production snares you bouncy, infectious, and unapologetically peppy from the start. It’s the beat that will have your head nodding before the words land, but when they do, it’s a wrap. He spits with a confidence that doesn’t feel forced, an earned cockiness, stuffing double meanings and sly references into every bar that you miss almost on the first listen.
“London Eye” is like a love letter to the city that raised him, with AntsLive orbiting its streets, an unblinking satellite keeping track of every movement from above. The London Eye becomes a metaphor for perspective, elevation, and seeing things more clearly than the rest. There’s swagger in every bar, but there’s also polish that indicates he’s been in the lab, fine-tuning what sets him apart.
This will be a prelude to support his forthcoming EP, “Carpe Diem,” due by May 2nd. It’s playful but precise. It’s fun but focused. But more importantly, it reveals an artist who’s not just riding a wave but setting the tide.
