In 2022 his album Hugo was critically lauded, and was both deeply personal and highly political, cinematic in scale.

With more than 790 million global streams - 338 million from the UK - more than 657,000 album sales, more than 40 million YouTube views and more than 800,000 social media followers, Loyle Carner is one the most influential British rappers in history.

Nas at All Points East

Nas - Nasir Jones - first reached an international audience when his track Halftime was tapped by producer MC Serch as the opening cut on 1992’s Zebrahead movie soundtrack.

Critically acclaimed albums including Illmatic and It Was Written followed. Over the years, Nas has achieved numerous platinum records and Grammy nominations.

His latest record, Magic 3, was released in September.

He is widely recognised as one of the greatest rappers of all time.
