Little Man

In the realm of music, every once in a while, an artist emerges whose work transcends boundaries, defies categorisation and speaks to the depths of human experience. Indy Newland's debut album, ‘Little Man’, is precisely that kind of artistic revelation. The 22-year-old transgender hip-hop artist and skater from London has poured his heart and soul into this album, resulting in a genre-defying masterpiece that explores themes of self-identity, first experiences and perseverance.

‘Little Man’ is more than an album; it's a journey through the intricacies of life's firsts. When the pandemic abruptly halted Indy's studies at Leeds Conservatoire, he found solace in the soothing embrace of jazz-influenced, old-school hip-hop. This unexpected twist in his life led him to not only discover the art of rap but also to embark on a profound voyage of self-discovery. The outcome is a musical tapestry that seamlessly interweaves elements of hip-hop, jazz and soul, all underpinned by Indy's heartfelt storytelling.

As you journey through the tracks of ‘Little Man’, Indy Newland's life story unfolds before you. From his first experiences at university to finding independence, discovering love and realising his true identity as a transgender man, each song is a heartfelt chapter in his life. Indy's motivation for creating ‘Little Man’ is crystal clear: he sees music as a lifeline, a means of repaying the gift of salvation it has offered him countless times. ‘Little Man’ is out now on all platforms.
