Be here as the British rap icon and co-curator of this year’s London Literature Festival unleashes his razor-sharp lyrics and rhymes on the stage.

Born Justin Clarke and raised in East London, Ghetts combines razor-sharp, crystal-clear rhymes with smart humour and creative, intelligent wordplay.

In 2005, he released his debut mixtape, 2000 & Life. Since then he\’s gone on to release five further mixtapes and four studio albums. Ghetts\’ 2021 album, Conflict of Interest, reached number two on the Official UK Albums Chart, and earned Brit Award, Mercury Music Prize and NME Award nominations; plus DJ Mag Best of British and MOBO Award wins.

New album On Purpose, With Purpose finds Ghetts expanding his sonic palette and sounding sharper, more unflinchingly honest and boldly confident than ever before. Soon after the release of On Purpose, With Purpose, Ghetts was awarded the inaugural MOBO Pioneer Award.
