Revealed just a few hours ago via BBC Radio 1xtra, here’s the official audio for ‘Weatherman’ – the brand new single from Essex newcomer Dream Mclean, lifted from the debut EP of the same name.
A fusion of dark, brooding beats and Mclean’s witty social commentary spark shout outs to Twitter, casual sex and groupies; the lyrical theme echoing that of a light hearted equivalent to ‘Over’ - Drake’s 2010 ode to future stardom – yet delivered in a very typically British way.
Dream Mclean’s Weatherman EP is released as a free download via Chase and Status imprint MTA Records on 22 May with Mclean set to perform at London’s XOYO on the same day.
