Russ began writing raps at age 7, and has since then built up an extensive discography, releasing 11 albums and 87 singles in just 3 years. His twelfth album, There’s Really a Wolf, released in 2017, is what put him on the map and sent him to the top of the US hip-hop charts. His latest release of EP Chomp and its sequel Chomp 2 have an impressive list of features: Big Sean, Ab-Soul, The Game, Jay Electronica and Snoop Dogg. Russ is described as the “rapper’s rapper” as he continues to grow and improve over the course of his career. Some are calling Chomp 2 “a contender for Rap Album Of The Year.”

He’ll be supported by Dublin's own Monjola, alternative R&B/hip-hop artist. The Chamomile Records co-founder is on the rise, as his song ‘Smile’ just hit two million streams on Spotify. He has been dubbed “one of the most exciting acts emerging from Ireland", recently performing at the Main Stage of Longitude and Body & Soul's Hennessy Stage.
