Stig of the Dump

Beyond the Beat — HUCK spends a day with the relentlessly exuberant UK rapper.

Music is as much about the creative process as the final track.

And in the second episode of our new series, Beyond the Beat, HUCK meets up with London-based rapper Stig of the Dump to follow him on the daily routine of trying to pay the bills through beats and rhymes.
