Having already been noticed as one of the most hardworking and talented artists that have come out of the North East, Shakk has continued to excel throughout 2021. He was shortlisted for Performing Artist of the Year at the 2021 Culture Awards, was the first rapper to ever perform at Durham Cathedral in its 888 year history, and was awarded track of the week for the second time for his single Living Proof by BBC Introducing.
Shakk is quickly making a name for himself through eclectic, powerful, and emotive songwriting, in addition to his captivating live performances, and diverse music range, which has had his growing fanbase drawn to him since the release of his first single.
