Hilts is a rapper and producer hailing from South East London.

Born and raised in Lewisham, Hilts emerged on the music scene as a member of Novelist’s prominent grime crew The Square in 2014. He then journeyed to Leeds to form a 9-piece jazz-meets-grime ensemble, merging his roots in grime music with jazz, soul and r&b.

After accumulating these music influences Hilts released his debut project ‘Swings & Roundabouts’ - an 11 track project, self produced and featuring an array of talented featured artists such as Nix Northwest, Lizzie Berchie, IZCO, Loie and Ben B.C.

The release has had a great response: Hilts sold out his first headline show at Hootananny Brixton, bringing the music to life with a full live band and supported Jianbo on his 2024 Asia Tour.

Hilts’ next project ‘A Night Not Alone’ - A 5-track EP - is set to be released in January 2026.
