Mercury Nominated Rapper Ty Has Died

He had contracted coronavirus...

Mercury nominated rapper Ty has died, it has been confirmed.

The British-Nigerian artist - real name Ben Chijioke - was much loved figure within the UK hip-hop community, both for his warm, outgoing personality and his skills on the mic.

Nominated for the Mercury with his album 'Upwards', he contracted coronavirus earlier this year.

Admitted to hospital, an online fundraising account was set up to aid him, and it was reported earlier in the week that his condition had improved.

Sadly, The Voice has confirmed tonight - May 7th - that Ty has passed away at the age of 47.

Enormously sad news, his passing has prompted a wave of mourning across UK music.

If ever there was a time to discover your new favourite MC, or to re-visit some old classics, it's now.

The Streets Share New Song 'Where The F*ck Did April Go?!'

It's the B-side of their new single...

The Streets have shared new song 'Where The F*ck Did April Go?!' - listen to it now.

Mike Skinner recently linked with Tame Impala on new single 'Call My Phone Thinking I'm Doing Nothing Better', before announcing plans for a new mixtape.

'None Of Us Are Getting Out Of This Life Alive' is incoming, but the creativity hasn't stopped.

Currently on lockdown, Mike Skinner finished new song 'Where The F*ck Did April Go?!' just last week, and it's an off-mixtape cut.

The B-side of the new Streets single, he comments:

"I wrote this last week. It's a weird time isn't it. We were looking forward to the Summer just like everyone else, festivals and gigs all there, new music, new stage set - but this has taken the wind from everyone’s sails. And none of us know quite how to cope with it all. I just wrote a tune the same way other people might talk to a therapist!"

Tune in now.

The Streets will release new mixtape 'None Of Us Are Getting Out Of This Life Alive' on July 10th.
