Topical rapper and mental health advocate, Shocka, reassures sufferers of mental trauma on his latest offering ‘Don’t Be Ashamed’, featuring Sami Switch.
Shocka has quite the story, and one that he looks back at with a sense of pride and fearlessness on ‘Don’t Be Ashamed’. Born and raised in Tottenham, London, Shocka exploded onto the Grime scene as one/third of Grime collective Marvell, alongside Double S and Vertex and going on tour with legendary grime MC’s Skepta and Chip.
After dealing with mental health issues himself, Shocka became a Mental health advocate, using his music to help those suffering from their own problems, speaking on a TEDx TALK and being a guest on numerous talk shows in order to raise awareness. Interviews with both ITV and The Guardian see Shocka open up about his roots, purpose and new-found lust for life, which couldn’t be more obvious on this new release.
