“one of the most thoughtful, moving and necessary albums of 2019 so far” – The Independent

“A precocious UK rap talent has come of age” – Evening Standard
“one of the UK’s boldest and exciting artists” – NME

Ahead of his SOLD OUT Australian tour and first ever appearance at Splendour In The Grass (Friday), prodigal rapper Dave has today shared the music video for his fan-favourite “Location” ft. Burna Boy, taken from his universally acclaimed, UK chart-topping debut album PSYCHODRAMA (out now via Neighbourhood / Caroline Australia).
The celebratory music video was directed by Dave himself, alongside Kaylum. Produced byJae5, the track itself has racked up over 87 million combined streams worldwide.
The clip follows Dave’s standout Glastonbury performance last month, which went viral when a punter named Alex hopped onstage and wowed crowds by nailing the rap in “Thiago Silva” alongside his hero. Relive the moment HERE.

One of the most highly-anticipated British albums of recent times, ‘PSYCHODRAMA’ is an intricate, complex and striking 11-track collection that encapsulates everything special and unique about the prodigal rapper. With only a handful of features (including J Hus’ first appearance on a track since last summer), the record features production from frequent collaborator Fraser T Smith as well as Jae5, 169, TSB, IO, 1Mind and newcomer Kyle Evans.
In just over a year, Dave has skyrocketed into the public consciousness as an artist like no other. From becoming the youngest ever winner of an Ivor Novello Award for Best Contemporary Song for his politically-charged single “Question Time”, to amassing over 600 million streamsas a completely independent artist (not to mention becoming the second artist to debut at No.1 in the UK last year with his Fredo-assisted single “Funky Friday”). Dave has undoubtedly emerged as one of the most important and necessary voices in Britain today.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
