The release of this album, which is dedicated to his late mother, is accompanied by two new music videos: &#8220;Princess Cuts&#8221; with British rap duo Young T &amp; Bugsey and &#8220;Parlez-Vous Anglais&#8221; with Aitch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The introspective album addresses the importance of his faith in God, his relationship with Tottenham, discrimination, prejudice within the prison system, emotional intelligence, not forgetting love and mental health. &#8220;<em>Edna is my story.

This new track marks Headie&#8217;s second collaboration with Young T &amp; Bugsey, following the success of &#8220;Don&#8217;t Rush.&#8221; For the rest, the British rapper went all out on the casting for his debut album: only British heavyweights like Skepta, Stormzy, AJ Tracey, M Huncho and D-Block Europe&#8217;s Young Adz get the call up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A statue in his effigy has even been erected in central London, symbolizing the beautiful perspective he adds to British music.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Edna<\/em> is available via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.relentlessrecs.com\/\">Relentless Records<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen to Headie One in our playlist Songs of the Week on <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)\" href=\"https:\/\/spoti.fi\/2Pz0eyg\" target=\"_blank\">Spotify<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (s\u2019ouvre dans un nouvel onglet)\" href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/30zVbUA\" target=\"_blank\">Deezer<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1010\" height=\"1010\" src=\"https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/f0129c06-headie-one-edna-1010x1010.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-62006\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/f0129c06-headie-one-edna-1010x1010.jpeg 1010w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/f0129c06-headie-one-edna-759x759.jpeg 759w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/f0129c06-headie-one-edna-100x100.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/f0129c06-headie-one-edna-1440x1440.jpeg 1440w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/f0129c06-headie-one-edna-661x661.jpeg 661w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/f0129c06-headie-one-edna-465x465.jpeg 465w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/f0129c06-headie-one-edna-375x375.jpeg 375w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/f0129c06-headie-one-edna-200x200.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/f0129c06-headie-one-edna-85x85.jpeg 85w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/f0129c06-headie-one-edna-73x73.jpeg 73w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/f0129c06-headie-one-edna.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"(min-width:1010px) 759px,100vw\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><figcaption>Headie One &#8211;
