Nutty P ft: Rodney P - Trials Of Babylon (Official Video)

Nutty P is a rapper, producer, musician and singer-songwriter hailing from south west London. He has enjoyed an illustrious career since his early days at legendary Lancaster Youth Club, where he honed his production skills under Shakka’s guidance. He caught his first break at the age of 18, when he secured an official remix for Big Bruvas, which resulted in him touring with Shola Ama and Naila Boss, and producing for the then-hottest emerging talent like Lowkey, Sway, Doc Brown, Professor Green, J2K and Smiler.

With over 15 year's’ experience in the music industry, Nutty P has amassed a phenomenal network and produced with commercially successful artists including Wretch 32, Ghetts, Kingdem (Blaktwang, Rodney P and the late Ty), Krept n Konan, Lowkey, SNE, Paigey Cakes, Stefflon Don, Newham Generals and CasIsDead - with regular airplay across all major stations including BBC Radio 1, 1Xtra, Capital Xtra and KISS.

Nutty P say’s: The track features UK Legend Rodney P. I'd been working with Rodney for a few years at this point and he'd sort of become cohort. Rodney's a UK hip hop icon, from his classic album The Future to touring the world with the debaucherous Dub Pistols, he'd always been an inspiration to me. Now, I don't really ask for features but I just felt like I needed Rodney on this one. It wasn't long after we'd just got finished completing the Kingdem project featuring Blak Twang and God rest his soul, TY, who is sorely missed. Rodney initially wasn't really feeling the beat , I dunno, maybe I bit on the nose? I later uncovered that man had been listening to it on his frigging phone, like fam, It's a rasta man ting init, anyway... When he came to The Bakery to lay his verse for a track I'd produced for him and Ocean Wisdom titled "Call Me" I played the riddim and he was convinced, exclaiming; "ohhh its a reggae ting?" Finally sold.
