- EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH JACOB BANKSFew artists offer a truly emotive narrative in every release quite like Jacob Banks does. Ever since his first EP, The Monologue, Mr Banks has caught the attention of some of the biggest artists, labels and tastemakers in music. Now boasting a near cult following, Jacob’s managed to work with the likes of Chase & Status and Avelino whilst still staying humble in attitude and distinctly grass roots in his sound. Now, with the release of his latest EP, The Boy Who Cried Freedom, we see Jacob’s sound developing even further in maturity and diversity. His powerful, emotive vocals are now a given but the progress he’s made as a lyricist and the variation in production on the EP is what has seen Jacob really push his sound forward. There’s definitely a reason why The New York Times hailed him as the best act of SXSW, so, if you’re not yet familiar with his sound, it’s time you discovered your new favourite artist. We were lucky enough to get a morning of Jacob’s time to talk summer, his new EP and style, whilst shooting him in some choice modern tailoring from the NEW LOOK MEN Horizon collection.3
