2015 is looking like quite the year for dominant grime collective Boy Better Know. With multiple festival appearances forthcoming founding member Skepta, brother of JME (check their '#ThatsNotMe' below), will be presented to the 02 Academy Leeds' crowd on Friday 27th March.

He recently appeared alongside Kanye West at the Brit Awards for his incendiary performance of 'All Day', where with Novelist and JME he delivered a proud signal of where grime is heading - and there's no denying that Skepta is at the forefront of that movement.

The fact that he didn't mention Kanye once during his performance supporting the controversial rapper at a recent show at KOKO highlights that he remains grounded and focused on boosting the profile of grime, a task well executed through his astute and sharp lyricism when it comes to reeling off bars with maximum precision.

Joining the Boy Better Know guardian is another acclaimed MC, Ghetts, who's been consistently blipping the genre's radar for quite a few years now. Lewisham voice commander and dubstep frequenter P Money is also in attendance with Solo 45 tying up a solid showing for the London scene. Grab your tickets here.
