Skepta has plenty to celebrate this year. Some of the Grime artist’s highlights from 2016 include collaborating with Nike on a sneaker, signing Drake to his own label BBK, being appointed a Uniqlo ambassador, hitting the 100,000 sales mark with Konnichiwa, and picking up the prestigious Mercury Prize for the aforementioned project — a feat which seemed unfathomable 12 months ago. To cap off his terrific year, the artist will be performing a sold-out show at Alexandra Place in London on December 2. Luckily for his overseas fans and those that weren’t able to get tickets, Skepta has partnered up with Apple Music to livestream the spectacle around the world at 9 p.m. GMT on the day of the concert. Listen to the announcement below on Beats 1 Radio.
