Wretch 32
Unorthodox

Levels/ Ministry of Sound

WE SAY

Following his Top 5 hit Traktor, Jermaine Scott aka Wretch 32 looks set to continue his success with the catchy Fools Gold-sampling Unorthodox featuring label mate Example. Zane Lowe described it as 'propelled by the mother of all indie breaks... another hit record for both' when he premiered it as his Hottest Record in the World earlier this month. Unorthodox is currently one of two Wretch 32 tracks on the 1Xtra playlist and is picking up plays on daytime Radio 1 too. A glimpse of what's to come from Wretch 32, who has been confirmed as main support on Example’s forthcoming nationwide spring tour.
