Introducing 20-year old Ironik...

Introducing 20-year old Ironik whose underground internet “chipmunk” smash, ‘Stay With Me’, comes out on June 9th (digitally) and June 30th (physically) It’s released through the brand new Asylum label currently enjoying number 1 iTunes and Top 5 chart success with the smash hit, ‘Wearing My Rolex’ by Grime master - Wiley.

Watch Stay With Me

He might be the new kid on the block, but the DJ/Producer/MC’s heartfelt message has grabbed the attention of an entire generation, stacking up a raft of unparalleled statistics in the process. The forthcoming single, ‘Stay With Me’, was written by Ironik for his younger sister, fuelled by his fear for her growing up in a society rife with knife crime and violence. Effortlessly straddling the line between R&B, Grime, Pop and Hip Hop, it is already enjoying warm support at radio from 1Xtra and Kiss. The original video was number 1 on both Channel U and Fizz TV.
