Album Notes & Community Reviews

Emerging as a leading, unapologetically punk voice in the UK hip-hop scene, Tyron Frampton's debut album is a blistering, sarcastic takedown of British nationalism and class divide. The record fuses the frantic energy of grime with classic East Coast boom-bap elements, soundtracking his intensely charismatic, snarl-heavy delivery. It earned him widespread critical acclaim, a Mercury Prize nomination, and a reputation as a highly controversial provocateur.
