Grime will be putting in a big showing at the festival this year, with scene newcomers Elf Kid, AJ Tracey and Jammz, BBK’s Frisco and Logan Sama added to the line-up. UK MCs Lady Leshurr and Avelino also join the bill, as well as Disclosure collaborator RØmans, who appears alongside MC Nadia Rose.
The line-up also features a selection of fresh vocal talent, including Samm Henshaw, Royce Wood Junior, Kiko Bun and Michael Kiwanuka.
