B Young is a singer, rapper and songwriter hailing from an area called Hackney in East London. B Young spent several years self teaching his way around a studio, from learning to mix and master his own records to video editing. He was able to experiment with different sounds to craft his melodic rap and afrobeat/bashment crossover sounds. In his teens and much like today, B Young split his musical tastes between his Caribbean friends’ Dancehall music and his friends of African heritage Afrobeats/Afrowave tastes.
