SRP: Reptile B | Kimmortal (CA) | Dynesti (CA)

About

Strongroom is proud to present this line up featuring Reptile B with support from Kimmortal who will be coming to London from Canada as part of their tour. **Reptile B** *Reptile B is the mutant voice of a new underground. Hailing from East London with Black British Jamaican roots, he fuses grime, UK drill, dancehall, jungle, and punk into a sound that is as chaotic as it is unclassifiable - think queer exorcism meets Fatboy Slim, Azealia Banks meets UK garage.* *In 2024, Reptile B debuted with his grime record “THG”, racking up one million views on TikTok and 100,000 streams on Spotify. He later on was invited to perform at the main stage of UK Black Pride and its official afterparty, where he delivered an electrifying live set. Blending high-energy dance moves, monologue and sick flows, Reptile B was recognised by CRACK Magazine as the highlight of the party.* **Kimmortal** *A second generation child of Filipino immigrants, Kimmortal grew up in the strict confines of religious dogmatism. Their experiences making art gave them the freedom to imagine something more. As a multidisciplinary artist, Kimmortal aims to defy, uplift and inspire - weaving their queerness and politics into joyful rituals of resistance and imagination. A student of wordsmiths within hip hop and spoken word, they spent their early years acting on theatre stages, listening to poetry in their headphones, and painting in art school cubicles.* *Today, Kimmortal reclaims their narrative through “making whatever they want”, leaning into their weirdo inner child, and exploring sonic possibilities, always with collective resistance at top of mind.* **Dynesti** *Toronto rapper, singer and dancer Dynesti transforms any space with a potent mix of raw honesty, life lessons, humour, and collective participation. Blending neo-soul and conscious hip-hop with reggae, dancehall and afrofusion, she conjures up an infectious vibe known as "The Dyna" (Caribbean for "diner") and serves "royal hip-hop/soul with a dash of rudegyal".*
