Lightwork
South East London producer and artist YK steps forward with Lightwork, a vibrant album crafted entirely in his Forest Hill bedroom studio. Originally from Accra, Ghana, YK has spent over 12 years shaping his sound, building a loyal SoundCloud following through his percussive UK future style. Blending future bass and R&B with touches of jersey club, garage and house, he delivers an energetic, uplifting project rooted in personal growth and resilience.
Lightwork reflects life lessons drawn from love, loss and perseverance, pairing confident textures with expressive synths and hard hitting drums. Standout moments include the anthemic Corridors of Time, fan favourite Natural High where YK showcases his vocals, and the cinematic Ninja. Influenced by Timbaland, Kanye and Tupac, YK bridges future sound with hip hop spirit. With placements on Soulection and Darker Than Wax plus an Amsterdam tour under his belt, Lightwork captures an artist fully in his stride.
