Santan Dave (born David Orobosa Omoregie, 5 June 1998) is a British rapper, singer, songwriter, record producer, and actor from South London. He is widely regarded as one of the most influential UK hip hop artists of his generation, known for his sharp lyricism, storytelling ability, and socially conscious themes. He first gained attention in the mid-2010s with viral freestyles and early tracks like “Thiago Silva” (with AJ Tracey) and “Wanna Know”, which was later remixed by Drake. His breakthrough EPs *Six Paths* (2016) and *Game Over* (2017) established him in the UK grime/rap scene. Dave’s debut album *Psychodrama* (2019) was critically acclaimed, debuting at No. 1 in the UK and winning the Mercury Prize. His follow-up album *We’re All Alone in This Together* (2021) also reached No. 1 and further cemented his status as a leading voice in UK rap. In addition to music, he has acted in the Netflix series *Top Boy*. His work often explores themes such as mental health, race, inequality, trauma, and personal growth, delivered through a blend of hip hop, grime, and conscious rap styles.
