Making his presence felt over the last two years, Starmoney has stepped out of the shadows to deliver a slew of his own heavy rap joints that have catapulted the rising star up the chain of UK rap, including the weighty collaboration ‘Catfish’ featuring Snap Capone. Starmoney made his debut with ‘Black Lives Matter in 2020, gaining attention with UK and Caribbean press. Deeply rocked by world events and inspired to be an activist for the cause, Starmoney made the transition from writer to rapper with a powerful message and has since continued to use his platform to speak on positive change and drive collaboration between Caribbean and UK artists, as reported by the Jamaica Observer.
Born in Trinidad and Tobago but finding a place to call home in London as a child, Starmoney has had a world of black music to fuel his personal soundtrack to life. From the calypso sounds of his mother’s singing to reggae, dancehall and hip-hop, Starmoney also immersed himself in homegrown UK sounds such as garage, grime and UK drill. The myriad of influences and cultural understandings award him a unique musical perspective that flows through the centre of his very own material.
Teaming up with hit maker Sneakbo for the latest joint, Starmoney flexes his lyrical sway and teams it with a noteworthy delivery.
