We've teamed up with W!ZARD Radio Station, the leading online teen radio station, dedicated to playing your favourite music before you know it. WR are picking a track from emerging UK talent every week that they predict will make it big to showcase here, on the BPI blog.
Born and raised in Milton Keynes – but with Ghanian heritage – Rocky Nti is bringing a fresh sound to New Music Friday’s everywhere.
Having supported the likes of Tom Grennan and Panic! At The Discover, written with Kano and The Prodigy’s Olly Burden and performed at Glastonbury – he is already off to an extremely strong start.
