This artist aims to express an array of real-life experiences within his dynamic, groove-laden work. Working with DJ Ironik for the first time, Ironik is a British Musician, DJ and Rapper famed for an array of chart-topping staples – Stay With Me and Tiny Dancer to name a few. As a legend in a multitude of genres, DJ Ironik lays down his verse around CHKN’s freshest effort.
The new single, Settle Down featuring ROSA and DJ Ironik, touches upon personal struggles around relationships and suffocating societal norms.
