Artist Biography
The Mancunian rap/acoustic trio known as Prose drew a broad variety of comparisons in early press coverage. They were described as a combination of down-to-earth U.K. hip-hop, similar to the Streets or Plan B, with a touch of melodic lad rock that took its cues from fellow Mancunians Oasis. Their lyrical approach was inspired by life experience, often covering very personal subjects. They were discovered by London-based rapper Naughty Boy, who in turn introduced them to Emeli Sandé. They went on to support Sandé at a gig for a homeless charity in London. Their debut single, What If?, was released by Virgin Records in October 2015, with a full-length album scheduled for 2016. ~ Liam Martin
