Praised for his meaningful themes, mixed with genius lyricism, London-born rapper Loyle Carner is back to bless us with some quality music as he announces the release of two new singles ahead of his upcoming 'Hopefully' album. 

Dedicated to his journey in fatherhood and being a successful artist, the rapper's new album focuses on bringing a new chapter of a more alternative palette with some singing and a guitar-influenced sound. The two singles, 'about time' and 'lyin' come just weeks after his other single releases, 'all i need' and 'in my mind'.

And the album doesn't stand alone as Loyle will be heading on a huge global tour, 'hopefully ! a world tour by Loyle Carner’, which will follow his headline at Glastonbury Festival 2025 (Friday 27th June 2025). 

This will be Carner's fourth studio record release and a highly anticipated one, set to release on Friday 20th June 2025.
