A unique voice in modern reggae, RUNKUS has established an avant-garde reputation, fearlessly breaking down borders, weaving together both modern and ancient into one sound. He’s worked as an artist, producer, songwriter, and scorer for the past decade, winning a MOBO (for his work on Bashy’s Being Poor Is Expensive), as well as being nominated for GRAMMY, Juno, and Ivor Novello Awards, along the way.
With the new album, SUPERNOVA, which includes guest appearances by Sean Paul and Peter Tosh, they have reignited a seamless collaboration of music and art, following in the footsteps of pairings like The Velvet Underground & Andy Warhol, Kanye West & Virgil Abloh, and (closer to Runkus’s home country of Jamaica) Bob Marley & Neville Garrick.
