Digga D - Bluuwuu. An exclusive performance for Vevo DSCVR, the channel for the best in new music.
There's no shortage of rappers who, for various reasons, find themselves on the wrong side of the law. Digga D, however, adds a unique chapter to the tradition of freely speaking your mind and suffering the consequences. It starts with the 2015 formation of the West London MC's drill collective, 1011. Barely a teen at the time, Digga and his crew gained notoriety throughout the city with raw tracks like “Kill Confirmed” and “No Hook.” Their rough and sometimes deeply specific lyrics put 'em on the cops' radar, and in 2017 a police stop-and-search led to charges of conspiracy to commit violent disorder. A Criminal Behavior Order forced the crew to remove their music videos from YouTube, many of which had amassed millions of views. Didn't solve much; fans just re-uploaded them. Then a judge ordered a ban on Digga using gang-related and violent lyrics in his music. According to the New York Times, other British drill artists have been handed similar orders. But Digga is unique in his growing popularity and massive potential. The 20-year-old recently recorded and released ‘Made In The Pyrex,’ the country's highest-charting album from a UK rapper born in the 2000s. The album proves two things about Digga. The fans are on his side, and his past hasn’t killed his future. Unmistakable in these Dscvr performances of “Bluuwuu” and “Gun Man Sound" is a fully unique flow and deep emotional force. Not hard to see why Digga's influence has such an impact.
