Critically acclaimed rapper / lyricist Byron returns with the release of a brand new two part mixtape titled ‘Deep Lyrics/Dirty Beats’. Described by Byron himself as "a body of work that is mostly Grime, with a sprinkling of Dubstep", the mixtape is set to continue the 25 year olds rise to establishing himself as one of the most talented wordsmiths Britain's 'urban' wave has ever washed ashore.
Hailing from the much-maligned town of Slough, the 25 year olds penchant for witty wordplay and intricate vocal intonation has resulted in an enviable amount of support from his industry peers. After five successful years as part of Nine High - which produced two mixtapes, an album and an Australian tour, Byron released his debut mixtape, 'Jack of None', which received heavy support from acclaimed radio tastemakers BBC 1xtra (DJ Target, Ras Kwame), as well as notable underground rotation on stations in both the UK and Australia. He then followed this up with the five track deep 'Hardworker EP', which received praise from many leading blogs and airplay on Choice FM, as well as a selection of large campus-based radio shows in the US.
Byron's latest project draws influence from an eclectic pallet of musical tastes, epitomising the natural growth in both his writing style and musical output. All of this, merged with impressive production of esteemed producer Chris Loco (Joe Budden, Ms Dynamite, Ghetts, Emeli Sande), makes 'Deep Lyrics/Dirty Beats' an essential listen for any Electronic, Grime or Hip Hop music fan.
With a growing fan base, key press / radio support and some truly progressive music in his catalogue, Byron is becoming a force to be reckoned with in the international music scene, and 'Deep Lyrics/Dirty Beats' is another step in what is sure to be a long and illustrious career for the Slough born rhymer.
