Jeshi doesn’t run away from fire; he runs with it. The East London artist is on a quest to feel alive in every sense. To him, feeling alive means being present in each experience, no matter how challenging. For Jeshi – who has spent the last few years establishing himself as one of the most exciting voices of his generation – this is what life and art are all about. Chaos, then, is not something to shy away from, but where great ideas are born. 

Jeshi’s electrifying second album, <i>Airbag Woke Me Up</i> is a collection of moment-capturing songs built to ignite reactions and start conversations. His scene-stealing jaunts to stages worldwide clearly influence its live-wire sound, as Jeshi and his cohorts smash through moods and tempos like kids let loose on funfair dodgems. “I want to make things that have intent and feel like statements,” Jeshi declares. His versatile voice is the conductive thread that pulls everything together. “On Universal Credit, my voice was used in one way, whereas on this it’s used in ten ways,” he notes.

<i>Airbag Woke Me Up</i> is an exploration into what happens when you emerge from tough times, and how they encourage you to view the world a little differently. It’s bolder in ambition and built from renewed energy. Chaotic, but in the very best way. “In my head, this is the real arrival chapter,” states Jeshi. “The ‘I am here, I’ve arrived’ moment.”
