The UK's rap scene is revisiting the nostalgia of the 2000s, exemplified by YT's hit '#Purrr,' which creatively samples Lady Gaga's 'Poker Face.' The track's music video captures a party vibe reminiscent of early 2000s hits, filled with visual cues that reference the era. This retro style symbolizes a revitalization of British underground rap, with emerging artists gaining attention. Publications like Dazed Digital highlight this growing movement, supporting a unified scene that embraces a rich historical legacy and prepares to step into the mainstream spotlight.
A girl at the party is wearing Union Jack shuttershades. YT is rocking the kind of YMCMB snapback that Tyga probably wore.
This retro aesthetic now defines a reborn British underground, one that has been in a full-court press for the last few weeks.
