Out of Lewisham in South East London, rap collective D-Block Europe are one of the UK’s biggest and most exciting names in contemporary hip-hop. Five mixtapes and now, a sophomore studio album down the line, they’re right up there with the very best the scene has to offer.  

 Their newest release is Lap 5, bringing together their long-time underground appeal and chart-topping potential, with mega-stars on feature duties including Ed Sheeran and Burna Boy. Weighing in on the UK Album Charts at their best-ever position of number two, we worked with SoundCloud to celebrate their global success on a more local scale – taking over a street-side in their home borough with a mural spotlighting Young Adz and Dirtbike LB before the record’s release. Seeing them take over their own streets, the mural even made an appearance in the music video for single 4 The Win – check it out.
