When it comes to UK rap, not many names are held in higher esteem than Knucks. Having cemented his name in the underground, last year’s stellar album Alpha Place took the Ivor-nominated artist to a new level of popularity, collaborating with the likes of Stormzy and Sainté, and ushering in a hybrid sound that looks set to influence UK rap for years to come.
We’ve been gifted with the exciting news that Knucks has been added to the already superb line up for this summer’s Reading and Leeds Festival. Boasting the likes of Billie Eilish, Central Cee, Steve Lacy and many more on the fruitful line up, Knucks adds another layer of craft, charisma and sophistication to the weekend, which is poised to be one of the last big hurrahs of the summer.
