The star has been living in Brighton on the south coast of England ever since, where he started rapping when he was 14 years old having his 1st performances in Slip jam B with his crew, ‘Brotherhood.’ Shortly afterwards, the crew members moved in different musical directions and he started concentrating on his solo career at the very young age of just 15!

He aims at creating new flavors and styles by bringing together all the elements of British Urban Music & American Hip Hop, thus propelling rap music to the next generation. Lil Blak has also released his promo  "Don't Be A Target" and is currently working on his first mixtape after having flooded the web with free MP3 downloads & audio streams such as Pagin Me featuring Breakthrough.
