Giggs has released new project, Zero Tolerance.  The 18-track record - which features artists from both sides of the Atlantic, including; PopcaanJadakiss21 SavagePotter PayperTiny BoostDave and others - is out worldwide.

Zero Tolerance is Giggs’ first full-length offering since 2020’s Now Or Never and sees the rapper returning to the spotlight stronger than ever with a record he’s described as an “instant classic”.

The release closely follows lead single, Mandem featuring Diddy; a straight-up banger that unites two rap titans.  Additionally, last week Giggs dropped his fifth Fire In The Booth freestyle, twelve years after first stepping up to the mic.

This month also marks the 15th anniversary of Giggs’ landmark debut album, Walk in Da Park (released 4th August 2008).  In the intervening decade and a half, Giggs has consistently distinguished himself as one of the most talented, pioneering and uncompromising British artists, and his stature and cultural importance continues to grow both at home in the UK and internationally.

Giggs has previously released five studio albums, several mixtapes, performed all over the world - including sold out hometown shows at The Roundhouse, Hammersmith Apollo and Wembley Arena - and collaborated with Drake, Ed Sheeran, Stormzy, Ghetts, Kano, Aitch, Tion Wayne, Richard Russell, 2 Chainz, Young Thug, Lily Allen, Jorja Smith, and many more.  The past few years have been especially productive.  In 2016, Giggs independently released Landlord, which reached hit #2 in the UK Albums Chart.  The following year, the rapper dropped full-length mixtape, Wamp 2 Dem, which also reached #2, and began to tour for the first time.  2019’s BIG BAD…  landed at #6, and the same year Giggs received his first Brit Award nomination in the British Male Solo Artist category.  In 2020, he continued his ascent with another heavyweight mixtape, Now Or Never.  Throughout, Giggs also maintained a healthy, near-constant presence thanks to a slew of impressive guest features.
