Heard It Here First

RL Grime is making his long-awaited return with his new three-part album that he just released! Five years removed from releasing his ground-breaking second album, “Nova“, RL Grime is back for more with his official third studio album, titled “Play“.

This new album consists of three parts, “Apex”, “Grid”, and “Rush”. Each part has a fresh take on the different sides of the dance music spectrum and allows Grime to paint his vivid picture for his listeners.
