About Giggs - NEW MUSIC UP NOW!! LET EM AVE IT: OUT 2010
DOWNLOAD WHO SAID DAT? FOR FREE Giggs isn’t just another rapper.
Not many street artists can boast sales of 100,000 mixtapes over two years, and none can lay claim to owning their own shop in order to keep up with merchandise demand. But since 2008, Giggs (so named because he used to giggle all the time) is the only name that’s mattered where British rap is concerned.
It was in this same year that the south London bred rappers debut, ‘Talkin’ The Hardest’ freestyle, became the unofficial anthem on road. With mixtape sales going through the roof, Giggs’ debut album Walk In Da Park (which he made in just two weeks and has notched up over 20,000 sales of to date) sold out nationwide, within just hours of hitting the shops. He also beat the likes of chart topping artist Dizzee Rascal and Chipmunk to win the BET Award for Best UK Hip Hop Act at a star-studded ceremony in Atlanta, USA.
Hailing from Peckham, Giggs (aka Hollowman, an alias he adopted following a stint in prison and a desire to move away from street activity) is regarded as the missing link in the hip-hop game. Known for his slow flow, deep vocals and poetic use of slanguage, his laid-back manner has had critics compare his rap swagger to the likes of Jeezy and The Clipse.
Head honcho of the SN1 (Still Number 1) crew, he delivers the negatives and the positives with his aural reality checks – something that has proved a battle when it comes to beating down the doors of the more mainstream industry.
But having attracted the likes of Joel Ortiz, CTR and Green Lantern in America, back home he’s been working with everyone from Sway, Skepta and Wiley to Shola Ama and The Streets, on the forthcoming single ‘Slow Song’ (produced by and featuring Mike Skinner). Radio support comes from long-term co-d Tim Westwood as well as fellow Radio 1 DJs including Zane Lowe and Mistajam.
So, while Peckham waits for a re-generation programme, Giggs will be busy building up ammunition for his second album and pushing other artists from the SN1 camp to keep the kids happy. Word.
