Skepta has transformed from the face of Grime to the representative of all things London as he continues to climb through the ranks of superstardom. This year alone, the rapper — also known as Joseph Junior Adenuga — joined other A-list acts like N.E.R.D., Lorde and A$AP Rocky at 2018’s Parklife in Manchester. Additionally, Skepta linked up with NIKE for two releases: a mashup of the Air Max 97 and Air Max Classic BW, as well as the highly-anticipated Air Max Deluxe SK collab. It’s an understatement to say that Skepta’s 2018 was successful, as he not only covered *GQ Magazine Britain* but also continued his Mains fashion line and was made a Nigerian chieftain.
