Nat Oaks is at the forefront of exciting artists to look out for in 2023. Reinventing and reconditioning the genre of hip-hop, Oaks has an innovative approach that is infectious and blends nuances of modern pop and rap,  taking inspiration from Lauryn Hill’s earnestness and the vibrance of Tyler The Creator. Paired with a sunshine production that is fresh and refined for today’s industry, the Gloucestershire based singer-songwriter has already played big UK festivals in Boomtown, Wireless Festival and Love Saves The Day, with her compelling and rich hip-hop sound.

With consistent support from BBC Introducing and featured in the likes of NOTION, Wordplay Magazine and FAME, she embarks on her biggest year yet, with a plethora of new material at the ready. ‘Backseat Driver’ is Nat’s next single, and it’s an intoxicating summertime anthem that will soak you up in her genre blending offering. With a bouncy and rhythmic indie soaked style that blends nuances of hip-hop, pop and even shoegaze in certain places with the reverb drenched guitars, Nat Oaks immediately makes her presence known amongst all of the sonics, with her unique and charismatic vocals that are catchy and switch seamlessly between singing and rapping throughout.
