Kings are made not born, and DJ Lag has been putting in the work for more than decade to rightfully take up the title as the foremost figure in the dark and atmospheric genre of gqom,” said MixMag about the inclusion of DJ Lag’s Meeting With The King in its best albums and EPs of 2022. It described the album as Lag’s “biggest, most emotionally-stirring and impactful release yet”.
DJ Lag’s Plato’s Combinados set with Joe Cotch and grime legend Novelist on NTS Radio – a global radio platform broadcasting music from over 50 cities around the globe – was nothing short of fire! It’s no surprise that it made Mixmag’s best DJ mixes of the year 2022, for the month of July!
As Mixmag put it: “An excellent choice of guests whose sounds are so complementary it’s wild this hasn’t happened before and we wish it would happen more. Tracks included that make this mix something else include ‘Stay Shining’ from Riky Rick and ‘No No’ from Babes Wodumo.”
