More about:

Joel Culpepper continued the journey to his debut album Sgt Culpepper last night with the release of 'Poetic Justice', a single that got its premiere on Annie Mac's Radio 1 show.

Beginning with some mellow spoken word between Culpepper and a female protagonist urging him to let go of the past, 'Poetic Justice' dissolves into a soulful, yearning track that shows the introspective side of an artist known for his funky party-starters.

The song was produced by Tom Misch and follows Double AA-side 'Return'/'War', which will also appear on his forthcoming debut. 

We named Joel as one of our 21 Ones To Watch for 2021. See the full list here. 

Sgt Culpepper arrives 5 March.
