About The Release
"Bovver Boy" is a deeply personal reflection on my primary school years, recounting an encounter with this other boy who bullied me after school. He was a follower, eager to impress his peers and prove himself as something he wasn’t—a gangster. Fast forward to adulthood, I later discovered that this same boy tragically lost his life, shot for flaunting stolen goods on social media. This track captures the tension, the struggle for identity, and the youthful bravado that often masks vulnerability. The song bridges the innocence of childhood conflicts with the harsh realities that can follow when trying to live up to a false image. It’s a poignant tale of how early actions and choices can ripple into life’s later chapters, reminding us of the fragility of life and the importance of authenticity
