Maxsta


Jumping on mic at the young age of 14 and releasing his debut mixtape at 16 it wasn’t long before established names such as Gods Gift started to pick up on Maxsta. 2009 was the year he made a lot of noise through ‘East London Is Back’ which was supported regularly across BBC Radio 1 & 1Xtra, thus leading him to perform at T In The Park in 2010.

Over the course of the next couple of years he signed to Sony Music Entertainment subsidiary Just Jam Records, owned by CEO of SB:TV, MBE Jamal Edwards. This deal pushed the Newham raised MC into the limelight further not just through releases but also through advertising campaigns with Adidas and Google. Maxsta continued to make a big impact on the scene with a number of freestyles amassing over 100k views and featuring on numerous sets on 1Xtra such as #GimmeGrime and his solo Grime Show appearance with Sir Spyro on Rinse FM in 2016.

Over a career spanning a little short of a decade he has worked with the likes of Tinie Tempah, Wiley & P Money on ‘Keeping It Moving’ which was playlisted by MTV in December 2017, he set himself up to continue forcing his way through to the grime elite in 2018 starting with his 1Forty Release ‘Boom & Bang’ which was premiered by Trench. Since releasing with us he has gone on to release with JME in October 2018 track entitled ‘Badmanism’.
