presenting MIST, Sneakbo & Lisa Mercedez
Birmingham’s own, MIST continues his rise after an appearance on Charlie Sloth’s 'Fire In The Booth', a sold out UK tour and two MOBO nominations last year. This talented rapper has a truly distinct sound that cannot be ignored and is sure to be fired up in front of such a big home crowd.

Sneakbo crashed the UK top 20 with his album ‘Brixton’ earlier this year mixing up rap, grime and reggae in fresh new ways. Referenced by Drake as one of his influences, Sneakbo was asked to join the US superstar’s UK tour and is renowned for bringing high energy levels to his sets.
MADE For The Weekend also welcomes rising star of UK rap, Lisa Mercedez to the Friday line up. Born in Jamaica but hailing from south London, this versatile artist is regularly supported by BBC Radio 1Xtra, Capital Xtra, Rinse FM and more, and is renowned for her dancehall moves and undeniable stage presence.
Also joining the line up is Izzie Gibbs. This highly talented winner of the ‘best newcomer’ in the UK Urban Music Awards 2016 continues to fulfil his potential with a reputation for dropping hard-hitting grime bars, as well as crossing into vocals and rap, typified by his killer last single ‘People’. Catch him at MADE For The Weekend before he seriously blows up.
