Some people make a living from music but Rebel MC has dedicated a whole lifetime to his craft. The Londoner first announced himself to the world as part of 80s hip hop/dance act Double Trouble Numerous appearances on national television followed, leading to the release of his first album project ‘Rebel Music’ in 1990. But while the ‘pop-rap’ style of the time reflected Rebel’s first foray into music, it was far from representative of what he wanted to achieve and the collaboration with Double Trouble was short-lived. Later on the name Congo Natty became a standard bearer for the original authentic Jungle movement and spawned numerous hits including the classics ‘Police in Helicopter’ and ‘Champion DJ’, released under the alias Blackstar. Watch the Jungle Lion roar at this great beach bar 😀 Schedule 10pm – Suport Act – tbc 11:30pm – Headline – Congo Natty ft Congo Dubz & Iron Dread
