In this new entry in our ‘Diamonds In The Rough’ category, we would like to introduce you to upcoming artist Lapzino and his brand new single titled “Paid In Full”.
Emerging UK rapper Lapzino has released his highly anticipated single, “Paid In Full”. Crafted in a burst of inspiration back in February 2023, the track showcases his lyrical dexterity and ability to bring energy to any beat. For Lapzino, the creation of “Paid In Full” was almost effortless, coming together in just 20 minutes after stumbling upon an infectious beat on YouTube that instantly captured his imagination. The track’s upbeat tempo and sharp lyricism are a nod to the sounds of UK rap’s top talents, such as Central Cee, Dave, and Stormzy, who have all served as influences in shaping his musical style.
Recording took place in April 2023, and though it would be several months before Lapzino decided the time was right to drop it, the result is a polished, carefully curated piece that reflects his dedication to excellence. When he finally performed “Paid In Full” live for the first time in August 2024 at a friend’s event, the crowd’s response was electric, affirming his decision to perfect every aspect of the track before sharing it with a wider audience.
Lapzino’s entry into the music scene might have started as a light-hearted venture — rapping over drill beats during casual jam sessions with friends — but it quickly became clear he had a serious talent for penning impactful bars. His friends often questioned if his verses were truly his own, believing they were too refined for someone just starting out. This early validation pushed Lapzino to take his music more seriously, and the results are evident in “Paid In Full”.
Despite the intense competition in the UK rap scene, Lapzino stands out by staying true to his mantra, “Can’t Rush Greatness.” It’s a testament to his belief in the process and in his own growth as an artist. With “Paid In Full”, Lapzino brings a refreshing sound that blends intricate wordplay with an energetic flow, serving as a perfect showcase for his growing potential.
Now, with this track out, Lapzino is ready to carve his own path in the industry, bringing listeners on a journey through his world. “Paid In Full” is more than just a song — it’s a statement of ambition, skill, and readiness to take on whatever comes his way. Whether you’re a longtime fan of UK rap or simply looking for something fresh to add to your playlist, this single is one you won’t want to miss.
