Astral People, Handsome Tours, FBi Click and i-D Magazine are proud to present the debut East Coast Australian shows of Lady Leshurr. With new single “Where Are You Now?” tearing up airwaves around the country and her “Queen’s Speech” freestyle series earning a staggering 73 million collective YouTube views, Lady Leshurr promises to make one of the hottest debuts of the summer.
Garnering the support of hip-hop heavyweights Timbaland, Erykah Badu and Busta Rhymes and with her debut album Queen of the Scene on the way, Lady Leshurr has cemented her place as one of the UK’s most prominent female rappers. By just 27, she has released nine mixtapes and three EPs, sold-out shows from New York to Brixton, and graced festival stages across the world. Lady Leshurr has gained global recognition for her quick-witted rap soaked with a unique blend of humour and self-empowerment. Pushing grime into the mainstream spotlight alongside peers Skepta, Dizzee Rascal and Stormzy, the Birmingham MC has been touted as the “The Queen of Grime” (NME).
“Lady Leshurr is the most visible of grime’s women at the moment—for good reason.” – Pitchfork
