What better way for Lewisham duo D-Block Europe to celebrate their first number one album than with four sold-out shows at the O2 Arena? The rappers kicked off their London gigs yesterday evening, bringing us a night filled with fireworks, reverberating vocal effects, dodgy lighting and surprise appearances from Central Cee and Skepta.
The pair released their third studio album Rolling Stone last month, which – despite some critics labelling it "misogynistic" and "superficial" – quickly rocketed to number one in the UK album charts. Regardless of controversy, D-Block Europe have proved that they aren’t short of fans (23 million on Spotify), who arrived to the show sporting their Sunday best.
