Tom Francis is one of New Zealand
hip-hop’s up-and-coming stars.
In a matter of a few short years, the Hawkes Bay rapper has risen through the
highly competitive ranks of the local scene to establish himself on the
international stage as one of Kiwi music’s most promising talents.
Now with the eyes and ears of the hip-hop world closely watching 21-year-old Francis, he’s about to
reveal his next move - his finest work yet; his new single, What I’m Made For.
Featuring Detroit kingpin Royce
Da 5’9 and LA-based Tyler
Thomas, What
I’m Made For takes the listener on an emotional journey,
giving a personal insight into the rappers’ lives.
Produced by New Zealand’s finest Rory
Noble and Dariush
Flokk, it’s an instrumentally smooth track that touches on self
reflection and worth - a powerful message that’s sure to resonate with fans who
have been there from the start, as well as those only discovering Francis and his music
for the first time.
Francis’ dream run began in 2015 when he booked a studio session in Los Angeles. He was
working alongside Wiz
Khalifa’s sound engineer Tom
Khare, when one day Wiz himself came into the studio. They got
talking, and from there doors opened up for the young rapper from New Zealand.
In early 2016, Francis released his debut album Underestimated,
which won him a burgeoning fanbase, impressed critics and sat proudly in iTunes
Top 10 for more than a week, even toppling the mighty Drake from the #1
spot.
