As APESHIT’s pogoing Atari-bassline bounced around the walls of Electric Brixton in the earliest moments of Bree Runway’s headline show, the crowd swiftly took the wheel. Without missing a syllable, the room yelled every last word of the opener from her debut mixtape 2000AND4EVA as the Hackney star held her microphone aloft and soaked in the scene.
When Runway played London last year a similar response left her visibly gobsmacked, while the tiny venue could barely contain her poise and talent. Since then, the singer, rapper and songwriter has been shortlisted for the BRITs Rising Star award, and Little Mix’s Jade Thirlwall was among the thousand-odd lucky punters in the house on Monday night.
