AITCH: the Manchester MC on making it

Over the last year, he’s featured on five Top 10 UK singles, and his rise doesn’t look like stopping anytime soon.

The 20yo Manchester MC Aitch (real name: Harrison Armstrong) uploaded a freestyle called ‘Straight Rhymez’ in 2018 which immediately took off. Stormzy became a fan, as did Ed Sheeran who Aitch says has already been talking with him of a collaboration.
