Not3s
Not3s' debut single, Addison Lee, was a cult smash at the start of 2017 - its delightfully daft lyric about hailing a cab for a “peng ting called Madison” was even tweeted by Louis Theroux. But the Hackney-born rapper is more than a one-hit wonder, thanks to an agenda-setting mix of afro, bashment, dancehall, and hip-hop… and everything in between.
His unusual stage name is a reference to three types of note: money, music and “take note of me”.

"1Xtra Live – one of the sickest things I’ve done to date, my biggest crowd yet performing to over 13,000 people!"
"4 October 2017. My first tour and first ever London show!"
"November 2017. Felt good to be able to open up a magazine like Music Week and see myself in it!"
