Listen to rising rapper CHIKA’s brand new EP ‘Once Upon A Time’

Rising rapper CHIKA has released a brand new EP called ‘Once Upon A Time’ – scroll down the page to listen to it now.

The Alabama artist has previously released two EPs in the last four years – first with her self-released ‘Full Bloom // A Poetry’ EP in 2017 and, in 2020, with ‘Industry Games’.

‘Once Upon A Time’ features the single ‘Fairytales’, which sees CHIKA team up with BJ The Chicago Kid. It also continues the fairy story theme with the two-parter ‘Cinderella Pt. 1’ and ‘…Pt. 2’, with the record as a whole sharing tales from the rapper’s life so far.

“I’m a star now/ Them visions don’t feel very far now/ My parents was stressing shit/ Worry no more/ Cos your girl got a job now,” she raps on ‘Hickory Dickory’, reflecting on how far she’s come since entering the music industry.
