Sinn6r (stylized in uppercase) is an English rapper and record producer from South East London, England.[1][2] Associated with the UK underground rap scene, his music has been characterised as featuring "trap-inspired hellscapes" and cadences influenced by American drill music.

Sinn6r has been credited with popularising the use of sliding 808s in the UK underground rap scene with his studio album #FEDERAL, building on a technique initially developed by 808Melo.[1][2] He has collaborated with artists such as Lancey Foux, EsDeeKid and Rico Ace,[3][4] and is signed to Lizzy Records.[1]

Artistry

[edit]

British magazine Dazed noted Sinn6r as drawing from "a broad church of references", including the likes of David Bowie, Skrillex and $uicide Boy$.[3]

Lyrically, Sinn6r often delivers narratives that juxtapose street crime and vulnerability with themes of substance abuse and personal hardships,[2] which he delivers over deadpan but dextrous flows while matching the abrasive, bass-heavy distortion of the beats.[1][5]
