Skepta has revealed the full line-up for his inaugural Big Smoke Festival.
Preceding the British rapper and Mercury Prize-winner's exclusive UK performance at London's Crystal Palace Park on July 6 will be The Streets, Mahalia (pictured), JME, Lancey, K-Trap, Odumodublvck, The Den Featuring Frisco, Flowdan, Sir Spyro, Infamousizak, Manga, Thafirst, and a special guest that's still to be announced. They'll perform on the Big Smoke Stage.
There'll also be a stage hosted by his record label, Más Tiempo. Skepta will play a DJ set, and there'll also be performances from Loco Dice, Uncle Waffles, Syreeta, Jammer (DJ set), Honeyluv, Kitty Amor, Ossie, and The Menendez Brothers. Skepta said:
“It’s good to give other people a space and platform to perform, and for us to step aside and let new talent come through. For me Big Smoke Festival is about building something and more doors opening. We’ve been thinking about what we can do to make a good festival and bring people together because right now everyone’s just on their phones, so how do we make people get off their phones and be immersed? Having a rap stage and a dance stage is setting us apart from everyone else, that’s our USP and I believe that this could be the London festival every summer.”
