Fresh from his successful debut headline show at Camden Assembly on 2nd September, Fabian Secon has teamed up with world-renowned director/animator Tristan Zammit for new video “Small”. Zammit is known for his animations for the likes of XXXTENTACION, Tory Lanez and Lil Yachty to name a few.
The video tells the story of a young Fabian feeling small in a big city but eventually standing tall and triumphant over everyone and everything in his way. “Small” is taken from Fabian’s latest EP I See Things Others Can’t, which has helped push his global streams past 25 million—a huge milestone for the independent artist who writes and produces all of his own music.
Having recently collaborated on J Spades’ MMMP 4 project, Fabian is currently working with artists such as Santino Le Saint and Ali3nhead, as well as writing for other artists with Jacob Manson (Rudimental, Ed Sheeran, Craig David), Redmojo (Madonna, Anitta, Pitbull), Will Simms (Aloe Blacc, Sean Kingston, WSTRN) and Daniel Mirza (Mr Eazi) among others. He’ll return to the stage later in the year with IAMNEXT.

I See Things Others Can’t follows previous projects Until We Meet Again alongside 5ive Beatz (2017) and Don’t Disturb (2016) and sees Fabian experimenting more with his sound.
“Each song has its own personality and expression, ranging from uplifting emotions to depressing places and rebellion”, says Fabian. “The EP’s title and concept revolves around the idea that sometimes I’m in my own world and only I can feel and visualise certain things around me. I always like to be one step ahead creatively and sonically too.
“For this project, I wanted to push my own boundaries. I created a more progressive sound with tracks like ‘Small’, which is very melodic and pop-R&B driven, while keeping a more familiar dark and eerie sound on others, such as ‘One More Day’ [co-produced by Jacob Manson]. I wanted to show growth and capabilities of what else I can do but also pay homage to what has been successful for me previously.”
Fabian has already garnered global acclaim from industry tastemakers for tracks such as “Haze” (feat. Young T & Bugsey), “Defeated” and “Bandz No Sleep”. Online support has come from the likes of Pigeons & Planes, Complex, MTV, Wonderland, Highsnobiety, Hunger Magazine, Notion Magazine, EARMILK, DJBooth, GRM Daily and Link Up TV.
Meanwhile, he’s received radio backing from major US stations Power 105.1 (DJ Self, DJ Clue, DJ Suss One, DJ First Choice and Drake’s DJ Spade) and SiriusXM, as well as UK stations BBC 1Xtra, Capital FM and Capital XTRA. Now a leading rising name in the urban music scene, he has his sights set on the live arena, with performances at UK venues Jazz Cafe, Hoxton Bar & Grill and Barfly preceding his debut headline show at Camden Assembly earlier this month.
