PREMIERE: John Dole returns with the bouncing new single 'Collective Thoughts'

With Radio 1's Huw Stephens already throwing his support behind the Newcastle-based frontman, John Dole has now returned with his latest slice of bold and bouncing hip-hop.

The new single 'Collective Thoughts' follows on from his heavily praised offering 'Going Through Hell' from earlier this year, and continues that fun and progressive flow that channels the energy of acts like De La Soul and Sampa The Great. Juxtaposing off-kilter beats, smooth instrumentals and funky synths, his latest release is looking set to become one of the feel-good anthems for these emerging summer months.

'Collective Thoughts' is available to pre-order now via Distrokid, and you can check it out first via the player below.
