Known for his deep-voice and gritty unapologetic lyrics, the Peckham native gained traction after releasing ‘Talkin’ Da Hardest’ in 2007 alongside a string on underground mixtapes in the early 00s which took the UK by storm. Despite gaining national recognition in the 00s, Giggs was still a target of the now-scrapped ‘Form 696’ which gave the Metropolitan Police the authority to shut down events they deemed ‘unsafe’. This didn’t stop fans from wanting to see the rapper perform live and due to popular demand, he organised a ‘secret’ concert where the venue was undisclosed and transportation arranged for fans to attend the gig. Fast-forward a decade and Giggs’ fanbase has reached international waters and has achieved the success that speaks for itself.

With 13 underground mixtapes, 5 albums and 5 compilation mixtapes he has earned the title of a living legend in the U.K. From working with the likes of DJ Whoo Kid, B.o.B and most recently Drake, Giggs is no stranger to artists from across the pond.

Serving as the technological follow up to vinyls, the cassette tape was developed and released by Philips in 1962. Like with any product, consumers are always looking for easy accessibility so in 1979 Sony released the first portable cassette player also known as the Walkman, which quickly became a necessity for music lovers worldwide.

In 2019 we see the resurgence of the old-time classic, as consumers continue to indulge in vintage accessories. Currently, cassette tape sales are at the highest they’ve been since 2004, in the U.K sales have skyrocketed by 112% year-on-year in the first half of 2019, with 36,000 cassettes units sold. It’s safe to say that’s its the new collectable product and we wait to see what the next vintage trend in music will be.
