Collistar - 1952

Leaving music for two years Collistar unexpectedly deleted his debut project Welcome to Britain in 2019. The debut EP which has hit 3 million streams has a 5 figure estimate of potential earnings. Why would an artist remove a project that was doing so well? Maybe 1952 may bring some light to the artist’s return. Comment sections and forums suggested it was due to him finding God. Why does a lad from West London take his music down to follow God? Collistar replied to many of his listeners that becoming a Christian had changed his life completely and that Geezers need the Gospel. He wanted to “Honour God in all things I do including earning money from music“. Mixing social commentary with drill 1952 juxtaposes trumpets and guitars with autotuned adlibs and sliding 808’s. The song explores London being hit with Smog, Cholera and Covid-19. These tragedies have all brought their own battles. Collistar’s introspective one liners ask us to explore the battle which is above our heads in the capital’s busy street
