About me

Freddy Forbidden (previously known as Fred Jones) was born and bred in Newham, east London. His sound merges the raw Newham grime patterns of artists like Kano and Griminal with cloud rap melodies, playfully arranged on top of heavy-hitting punk, futuristic trap and nostalgic bedroom pop fusions.
