Stormzy ! Youngs Teflon ! Bonkaz ! PBGR ! Naira Marley! These are the UK artists that have got me cutting up the rug in my shower and throwing my pillows all over my room.
Now I must admit that not all of these artist are on this list for the complexity of their lyrics, however music is about making your audience feel something, all these artists have done this for me in one way or another.

Where do I start hmmm?
Naira Marley - From Marry Juana I was hooked. The melodic mesh of Afrobeats and Bashment was a feature that had never been executed so perfectly in my opinion and the best part about it for me was that it didn't sound forced. Naira brings a certain vibe to all his songs that just make you want to get up and do the ‘stupid dance’ – his signature dance – and that is what I love about his music.

Next up is Bonkaz - a rapper from Croydon he can be seen as rather stereotypical in his content, in regards to focusing on drugs, girls and weed. Although to my surprise he doesn’t dress like the typical ‘hood’ rapper. He prefers to wear skinny jeans which would could be seen as a taboo in some areas. The fact that he is confident in being true to his character despite his surroundings is a feature I really respect and that in turn makes his music resonate more with me.
Youngs Teflon and PBGR I chose these artist because of of their lyrical content . Young Teflfon has this laid back flow which just makes you want to sip coconut from a straw with some ray bans on. Whilst PBGR combine lyricism with energy, giving you no option but to listen to what they have to say. 
Lastly Stormzy, with his latest EP out Dreamers Disease, he is being spoke about highly amongst industry and fans. He also has quotable lines which stick in your head and had me blasting his videos all day; can’t say my mum was too happy about the noise, with her room next door, but hey; such is life.
