LONDON PRODUCER BUDGIE SHARES PHOTOS HE’S TAKEN SINCE HIS MOVE TO LA LAST YEAR, FOR VIPER’S VINTAGE TAKE ON INSTAGRAM… This is an extract from the Spring Summer 16 Issue of Viper Magazine. Read more from the magazine here. Buy physical and digital copies here.
Viper takes a look at the best UK producers you’ve potentially never heard of. From the young bucks putting out their first EPs, to seasoned vets, we take a dig in the crate of the creme de la creme of Britain’s beat making scene… BUDGIE As a founder of legendary hip hop nights Livin’ Proof, Budgie is a fixture on the London party scene as well as an accomplished DJ and producer. 2014 looks set to be the year he moves from local to global, with his upcoming gospel collaboration with world-famous producer, Alchemist, as well as releases on Theo
London rapper ItsNate is taking his Slocal sound global… Why ItsNate and not Nathan? Because you have to let them know what it is and ItsNate. You’re from London. Do you think that breaking into the rap industry from here is a handicap? It’s a strange one because I don’t think there is a rap industry here; there’s a pop and dance industry that rappers tend to dip in and out of. Your sound is definitely influenced by grime too. Growing up, did you ever consider recording to grime rather than hip hop? I definitely did rhyme on grime beats
