East Londoner Jay Prince has been described by many as one of the UK’s brightest hip-hop stars and has often been called the British Kendrick Lamar.

Prince, whose 2015 EP Beautiful Mercy received rave reviews, is unlike anything we’ve already heard. The Londoner has earned industry praise from the BBC and MOBO, as well as gaining an army of fans from the UK and across the Atlantic. In the past 24 months, Prince has worked with Allan Kingdom, and has amassed millions of streams of EP BeFor Our Time. In 2016 he’s set to perform several shows across the UK and Europe, having already conquered the States in 2015.
