Degs

Music has always been in Degs’ blood – an accomplished pianist, guitarist and singer with militant flow and a golden voice, spanning eclectic tastes moulded by a musical family. The portal to the world of drum & bass was opened for Degs after first hearing the sounds of Bad Company and London Elektricity at 15 years old. Six years down the line, he picked up the mic and got on the stage. He swiftly became one of jump-up’s best kept secrets, earning himself resident spots at shows across Europe.

Years later, he’s honed his craft and become adept in many styles – with a strong R&B and hip-hop influence, his songwriting and MCing soon took a soulful turn, proving the adaptability and musical prowess of this accomplished songwriter. Degs draws upon a broad set of lyrical forms, fusing fast sprays with harmonious singing inspired by the likes of Fats, Eksman and Dynamite. It’s no easy feat to master the dual-craft of rapping and singing, with few MCs possessing the skills shown by the latest artist to join the Hospital family.

His most recent album via Hospital Records, If We Left This Earth, is a sonic expedition through the depths of Degs' artistry, standing as a testament to his versatility as one of the most prominent artistic voices in drum & bass. Blending underground energy with soulful melodies and heartfelt storytelling, this 15-track journey cements his place as one of the scene’s most compelling voices.
