With his latest release ‘Brilliant Mind’ amassing over 20 million streams and peaking at the 66th spot in the UK singles charts, Blanco is breaking grounds as a drill pioneer turned genre bending rap innovator. Now with this commercial success and BBC Radio 1 support, the always-experimenting, never-compromising Blanco is setting his sights higher with his next project, slated for release this year.

2023 proved to be a huge year for the South West London rapper, following up his GRM DAILY ‘Daily Duppy’ freestyle with potential UK rap mixtape of the year Rebourne, consisting of twelve high-quality tracks and boasting features from the likes of Kojey Radical, Avelino and AratheJay, as well as boundary-pushing producers such as Litek, Jens Muller, Alexaybeats, ATG and KXLLAK. Fusing a range of genres and influences, ReBourne highlights the youngstar’s versatility and unique ability, receiving tastemaker support from the likes of THE GUARDIAN, WONDERLAND, CLASH, HUCK MAGAZINE, COMLPEX UK, DJ MAG, BBC SPORT amongst others. Most notably, the mixtape delivered a hit with “Brilliant Mind”, which remained in the top of the Official Charts for 6 weeks, as well as being added to the B-list on BBC RADIO 1 and placing in the Spotify viral charts in the UK and internationally. To top off the track’s success, Manchester’s hottest rapper Nemzzz hopped on the remix duty.

Away from music, Blanco has been busy heading campaigns for the likes of Nike Air Jordan x END Clothing as well as attending key shows throughout the Paris Fashion. Week schedule. Inspired by the nascent drill sounds emanating from US pioneers Lil Jay, Chief Keef, and Rondo Numba Nine, Blanco first came to prominence with his leading role in renowned drill collective Harlem Spartans — featuring on one of the most iconic drill offerings to date “Kennington Where It Started” alongside Bis, Active and MizOrMac. Over the last five years, the single has racked up over 21M Spotify streams and 20M YouTube views on the official video.

A singular artist forging a reputation as the future of UK rap, Blanco’s multi-faceted ability and global vision continues to mark him as one of the most significant and thrilling names in the UK scene right now.
