Harrison Armstrong, more commonly known by the phonetic spelling of his first initial, has taken the UK rap scene by storm over the past year. Before his 20th birthday, he boasts a number 2 in the charts and a feature on Ed Sheeran’s chart topping Take me Back to London remix.

The fresh faced Manchester born rapper has enjoyed a rapid rise to the top, but has had to fight through some resistance along the way.
