Proph sees the world a little differently — and that’s what makes him stand out. The South London rapper is more than just a lyricist; he’s a sharp, introspective voice with a lot to say. His debut mixtape, Hurts The New Sexy, offers a window into his musical world, tying classic rap storytelling to a nuanced glimpse into his self-development journey.
Even with early co-signs from UK heavyweights like Ghetts, Dave, Wretch 32, and Avelino, Proph isn’t moving like someone chasing validation. Emerging under a shortened version of the name given to him by his grandfather, Proph’s earliest musical memories date back to his preteen years, when he crafted lyrics into vivid stories that sparked his curiosity. Growing up in Thornton Heath, Proph taught himself to look beyond his surroundings, using writing as a way to stretch his imagination and ambition.
Proph first made waves in 2019 with a standout freestyle on BlackBox, a moment that sparked his determination to push his artistry to new heights. Since then, his discography has become a genre-bending force, resisting the traditional confines of rap. His 2023 debut EP, Lost In Translation, put him firmly on the radar of fans and tastemakers alike. Beyond honing his musical craft, Proph has invested heavily in personal development, emerging with the wisdom and presence of a modern-day oracle. A strong faith in God, a growing understanding of world politics, and miles of travel have deepened his perspective, making him a courageous soul with stories to tell.
