Skepta Booking Agency Profile
MC, producer and record label owner Skepta, a veteran of the U.K. grime scene, had a significant impact on the genre's creative and economic comeback as well as its transition from the underground to the pop charts. His commercial and artistic breakthrough came with the publication of his fourth album, Konnichiwa, for which he was awarded the Mercury Prize and gold certification. Ignorance Is Bliss performed equally well on the U.K. charts and gave birth to "Greaze Mode," his highest-charting single to date. He worked with artists like Chip and Young Adz for Insomnia as well as J Balvin for "Nirvana" from his All In EP as his star was rising on the international music industry.
Boy Better Know released Konnichiwa, an album that featured Wiley, Pharrell Williams and Novelist as guests. It had the platinum-certified songs "Shutdown," "That's Not Me" and "Man," as well as the album's third hit. It received a ton of praise from critics and debuted at number two on the British charts before receiving the prestigious Mercury Award. Skepta released the Vicious EP shortly after, a brief collection of six songs that included cameos from Lil B, Section Boys, A$AP Rocky and A$AP Nast.
He collaborated on the full-length Insomnia alongside Chip and Young Adz, which featured the Top 10 song "Waze." Next came more well-known pairings, such as an appearance on Kid Cudi's "Show Out" and Slowthai's "Cancelled.".

Frequently Asked Questions about booking Skepta to perform.
Many performers, actors, speakers and other talent like Skepta in certain cases will consider virtual appearances via live streaming. They perhaps may accept lower fees too. If you are seriously interested in booking Skepta or other talent shown on our site, we will research their desire and the specific fee for your live-streaming event or project request.
Skepta's current work schedule and location in relation to your event's type, date, budget, and locality will play a primary factor in the acceptance of booking Skepta for your party. As long as your funding is commensurate with the price range to book Skepta, CTI will propose your event to the official agency representing Skepta. After we consult with them, we will provide a personal and accurate quote that includes: final costs, availability, and actual interest in being hired for your specific event or party.
CTI can give you the accurate Skepta booking price once we submit your event details to their camp. "How much does it cost to book Skepta for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final Skepta booking price is contingent on many variables and the booking fee we may show is based on a range derived from our past experience with what will Skepta charge for an event. An example fee to book Skepta is in the starting range of $25,000-$39,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
CTI negotiates on behalf of professional event planners and talent buyers for paid appearances! We cannot give out direct contact information of the Skepta agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The Skepta manager and agent will only work with us if we present them with funded offers for their client to work your event.
There is low probability to book Skepta for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the Skepta agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Skepta, because they get many offers to work events that are at or above asking price. It is also important to consider the travel costs when researching the Skepta booking fee, as additional expenses like this, as well as an entourage of staff and equipment, are not necessarily built-in to the booking fee range shown. If your budget does not factor that in, then there is no benefit for them to want to be hired. We do not personally speak for Skepta, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
