EsDeeKid

Liverpool’s EsDeeKid has rapidly transcended the UK underground scene to draw global attention, with his anonymity and his acerbic bars only increasing his mystique. Emerging in May 2024 with a lo-fi remix of “Black Beatles”, his 2024 breakout song “Bally”—made with collaborator Rico Ace—established a trademark-heavy, reverb-drenched production paired with a distinctive Scouse accent. The 2025 mixtape Rebel confirmed this trajectory, reaching number 16 on the UK album chart and finding success across Europe. Across 11 tracks and 20 minutes, EsDeeKid traverses cloud rap, trap and more, while viral speculation over his identity only heightens his charisma. Referencing everything from football managers to comic book superheroes, the rapper remains a spectral but intense figure.
