Gully


Gully is among the most exciting young rappers in south London. After a rapid rise, the 18-year-old already has a collection of viral singles and a debut mixtape to his name, with a quick flow and natural ear for a hook that’s turning heads around the capital and beyond. He’s worked with Backroad Gee, PS Hitsquad, and Kwengface on singles including the irresistible underground hit ‘Ying Dat’, but on every one of his releases Gully is the main attraction, one of those rappers whose natural charisma shines through in all that he does. He grew up in Peckham, raised by his mum. In a fast, diverse, and often challenging environment, Gully says his birthplace made him who he is as much as it might sometimes have messed with his head. He moved between schools throughout his teenage years, eventually leaving for good before he could sit his GCSEs. Around the same time, his football club folded, leaving him with lots of spare time. Needing something to occupy his energetic mind, he found music as the ideal creative outlet. Having rapped for fun with school friends from the age of 13, after leaving school he learned how to set up a studio, mix and record a track. Gully’s musical tastes formed while he was young. With roots in Zimbabwe, he grew up to the sound of Afro-beats playing in his childhood home, as well as R&B and eventually hip-hop. He counts Jay Z, 50 Cent, and Lil Durk among his favorite rappers, admiring not only their music but also their business acumen. Fro...
