8LACKWATER
As an artist, 8LACKWATER doesn’t stick to one sound. One minute, he’s spitting UK drill, then moving onto an emo-rap tune - before suddenly surprising us with heavy-metal: switching tones in his harsh, anarchic single, ‘WATER RUNS BLACK CUT’.
With beats that cycle between moody, hard-hitting grime, energetic Jersey Club, and emotional, introspective trap, 8LACKWATER blends these genres effortlessly - creating a sound that is chaotically earnest, and personal.
Style matched perfectly to music, at his gigs you’ll find 8LACKWATER in fits that are dark and oversized - black leather juxtaposing with his bright red hair; 8LACKWATER doesn’t follow trends, he sets them.
From sound to look, 8LACKWATER is a perfect embodiment of London’s new SoundCloud punks, with his range, variety and intensity making him a clear one to watch.
Catch him next at _______, __ of ____, doors at ____.
