London, UK – Emerging hip hop artist ReepMan is making waves in the music scene with the release of his highly anticipated first single, “With It,“ serving as the lead track from his upcoming Fresh off the Corner EP. This debut effort signals a bold arrival for the Clapham-born talent, showcasing a sound that is both instinctive and meticulously crafted.
“With It” draws its inspiration from a uniquely personal moment: an unexpected exit from a gentlemen’s club during a night out, which left ReepMan buzzing with energy and ideas the following day. Heading into a solo studio session, he transformed that momentum into raw creativity, polishing lyrics on the go while shaping ad-libs and delivery. The result is a track that flows effortlessly, capturing spontaneity while demonstrating a refined sense of timing, presence, and control.
Listeners will immediately notice the discipline, charisma, and precision in ReepMan’s performance. His voice cuts through with clarity and intent, commanding the beat without ever forcing it. Every bar reflects a hunger and dedication that hints at years of preparation, showing that he is not just stepping onto the stage. He is stepping in with purpose, laying the foundation for a career built on skill, persistence, and undeniable talent.
ReepMan, also known as Papi Benkos or Fresh Prince of the C (Clapham), embodies the essence of homegrown talent with global potential. Born in St Thomas Hospital and raised around Clapham Common, his music journey began in secondary school, leading to early music videos on Link Up TV in 2017. After a brief hiatus, he returned in 2020 with his debut afrobeat single, “Grind Today,” and built momentum with two singles released between 2021 and 2022, which received extensive radio play from Reprezent Radio to BBC 1Xtra.
In addition to his recording success, ReepMan has honed his stagecraft and live performance skills through a rigorous open mic tour, performing at every available local show. His dedication culminated in joining the Son of a Legend Tour UK alongside Nhale, son of the legendary Nate Dogg, further cementing his reputation as a rising star in the UK hip hop scene.
Musically, ReepMan draws inspiration from giants such as Stormzy, J Hus, NBA Youngboy, Future, and Young Thug, blending sharp lyricism with modern rhythms and a keen sense of storytelling. With “With It,” he proves that his artistry is not only authentic but instantly compelling, resonating with both the streets and mainstream audiences alike.
As ReepMan launches Fresh off the Corner, audiences can expect a project that captures raw momentum, lived experience, and sophisticated musical instincts. This debut single is more than a song. It is a statement, declaring the arrival of an artist poised to leave a lasting mark on hip hop both in the UK and globally.
