British rap duo Rizzle Kicks have unveiled a new studio album titled ‘‘Competition Is For Losers’.

Unveiled in February 2025, the new project marks Jordan Stephens and Harley Sulé’s return to music and it is their first full album in a decade.

‘Javelin’, ‘Gumdrops’, ‘New Sport’, and ‘Vice’ had earlier been released as lead singles, setting the tone for the new release.

The well-crafted 14-track album is carved out of versatility and creativity as it features collaborations from Maverick Sabre, Mick Jenkins, Lex Amor, and DJ Premier, with production from Owen Cutts, Tucan, and Alex Wells.

Speaking on the new project, the duo said ”It’s our best album yet. It’s harder to promote than it used to be but we are confident on its energy if you do listen. Everyone that joy feels rebellious these days so we stepped back in our own lane.

Recently, they performed ‘Vice’ for Jo Whiley’s Sofa Sessions at Maida Vale for BBC Radio 2. Their return to live performance began with a headline show at London’s KOKO in Camden last year, which sold out in under a minute.
