Unknown T

Daniel Lena (born 17 September 1998), known professionally as Unknown T, is a British rapper, singer, and songwriter. His first official single, "Homerton B", peaked at number 48 on the UK Singles Chart in October 2018. [2] Though it was originally released without a label,[3] its chart performance led to him being signed by Island Records through Universal Music Group.[4] It was included in a number of publications "best of 2018" lists, including The Guardian,[5] Mixmag,[6] and Complex.[7] In March 2019 "Homerton B" became the first UK drill track to be certified Silver by the BPI.[8]
