This young artist from North London, both rapper and model, is positioning himself as one of the most promising figures of the new British generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Son of grime veteran <strong>Frisco<\/strong>, <strong>ThaFirst<\/strong> grew up in contact with pioneers, drawing on this heritage to forge a unique artistic identity. Moving away from your father&#039;s footsteps is not easy. His career, marked by notable freestyles and performances on the biggest stages, such as <em><strong>Glastonbury<\/strong><\/em> or <strong><em>SXSW<\/em><\/strong>, allowed him to stand out against the big names in British rap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n        <div id=\"player-one-auto-A8vZUX0QFuI-1\"\n             class=\"player-one-wrap player-one-wrap--auto\"\n             data-player-var=\"playerOneData_player_one_auto_A8vZUX0QFuI_1\"\n             style=\"--po-brand: #e50914; aspect-ratio: 16\/9;\"\n        >\n            <div class=\"po-player-container\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        \n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But what distinguishes <strong>ThaFirst<\/strong>, is his ability to navigate between worlds. His breakthrough in fashion\u2014from Parisian runway shows to collaborations with renowned brands\u2014is a testament to boundless creativity. Supported by major players in the industry, he embodies this generation of artists who fuse music, style, and cultural influence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last year, it was the fans who really propelled <strong>ThaFirst<\/strong> in the spotlight. Thanks to their support, he has established himself as a rising force in British rap, but also as a personality in the fashion world. The singles <strong>Chanel Bags<\/strong> with <strong>Infamousizak<\/strong> and <strong>7Ormore<\/strong> have made an impression and attracted the attention of influential media such as <strong><em>Wonderland<\/em><\/strong>, <strong><em>Clash<\/em><\/strong> or <strong><em>Grm Daily<\/em><\/strong>, who all praised the power of his voice, his charisma and the depth of his lyrics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What is striking is how much <strong>ThaFirst<\/strong> knows how to fit in. His unique style has taken him to the catwalks, especially during the fashion show <em><strong>Skepta&#039;s hands<\/strong><\/em>, and allowed him to shine at Paris Fashion Week, even sharing the stage with <strong>A$AP Nast<\/strong>. He even made the cover of <strong>Exit Magazine<\/strong>, a first for him. With the support of major brands like <strong>Adidas<\/strong> and <strong>Ed Hardy<\/strong>, but also young British designers like <strong>Abigail Ajobi<\/strong> and <strong>Dedictd<\/strong>, <strong>ThaFirst <\/strong>today stands out as a pluralist at the intersection of sound, style and culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/C__RQTXuo41\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
