Intro

Section Boyz represent the raw, unfiltered pulse of South London. Their sound is a high-voltage collision of UK road rap and Atlanta-inspired trap, characterized by heavy, sliding 808s and cold, minimalist synth melodies. It is music that feels immediate and physical, designed to be played at maximum volume in urban environments where the bass can truly breathe.

What sets them apart is the collective chemistry. Rather than a lead artist with backing features, they operate as a true unit. Their tracks are defined by seamless hand-offs and tag-team verses that maintain a relentless momentum. The vocal delivery is sharp and rhythmic, often utilizing repetitive, hypnotic hooks that turn gritty street narratives into anthemic chants.

Start with the mixtape 'Don't Panic'. It is the definitive document of their peak influence, capturing the moment they bridged the gap between underground grime circles and the mainstream charts. It perfectly showcases their ability to turn localized South London slang into a universal language of energy and defiance.

Smoke Boys (formerly Section Boyz and before that Squeeze Section) were a British hip hop collective started by British rapper Ghost in 2010. On 25 September 2015 the group's second mixtape Don't Panic entered at number 36, making their first UK Albums Chart entry. On 4 November 2015, they won Best Newcomer at the MOBO Awards. They were considered to be highly influential in the UK drill scene.
