Rap duo D-Block Europe add second Manchester arena date due to ‘phenomenal demand’
London-based rap duo D-Block Europe have just added a second Manchester arena date due to “phenomenal demand”, with two other UK cities also getting extra shows.
The Lewisham-rooted hip-hip group, who have continued to skyrock in popularity over the past year or so, saw their Manc gig sell out in just a matter of hours.
With that in mind, the show has gone from an already impressive booking in the shape of their Co-op Live debut, to D-Block Europe playing two consecutive nights at the largest indoor entertainment venue in all of Greater Manchester.
Quite the achievement for a band already coming off the back of a huge 12-month period.
Updating fans on social media, the trap specialists said: “Ya’ll went so crazy we had to run it back. New dates just dropped, grab your tickets before they’re gone again.”
Comprised of two equally talented MCs, Adam Nathaniel ‘Young Adz’ Williams, and Ricky Earl Banton – a.k.a. ‘Dirtbike LB’, D-Block Europe have already landed some seriously big hits and collabs.
Working with the likes of Central Cee on ‘Overseas’, 9Goddy, Aitch, AJ Tracey and more, D-Block have racked up more than 10.5 million monthly listeners on Spotify, and much like their name would suggest, have garnered a solid following over in mainland Europe too.
Grime, garage, trap and everything in between – the British hip-hop scene is in a good place.
Best known for a tracks like ‘Kitchen Kings’, ‘Make You Smile’, recent release Ski Talk and more, fans will be looking forward to hearing plenty of tracks in real ‘Life’.
For instance, it might be a joint feature, but their verses on Cassö and soul singer Raye‘s track ‘Prada’ helped make it the one-time summer smash it was.
They might be riding a wave right now, but its worth noting the boys have been at this for well over a decade now, and with a growing connection to Manchester, we’re glad to see them landing premier venues like this the Co-op.
Obviously, tickets are already on sale for the second date on 10 December, and even if disappear just as quick, be sure to keep an eye out for resale tickets for the Tuesday and Wednesday night gigs.
