Novelist is a pioneering grime MC and producer from Lewisham, South London, widely respected for his sharp lyricism and uncompromising creative vision. First gaining attention as a teenager, he emerged as a founding member of the grime collective The Square, quickly marking himself out as a distinctive new voice within the scene. Early collaborations with producer Mumdance, including the EP 1 Sec, helped define his futuristic take on grime, while his growing influence was recognised with a nomination for Best Grime Act at the MOBO Awards in 2014.
In 2018, Novelist released his debut album Novelist Guy (2018), a bold and independent statement that went on to receive a Mercury Prize nomination. Alongside his solo work, he has collaborated with some of the most influential names in UK music, including featuring on “Lyrics” from Skepta’s Konnichiwa (2016) and working with Chase & Status on “Bigger Man Sound”. Known for staying true to grime’s foundations while pushing its sound forward, Novelist remains a focused, principled and highly respected figure in British music.
