RAT BOY

RAT BOY is the stage name of Jordan Cardy, an English musician and songwriter from Chelmsford, Essex, who first made waves in the music scene in the mid-2010s. Known for his eclectic blend of punk, indie rock, hip-hop, and ska, RAT BOY has cultivated a distinct sound that resonates with the disaffected youth of the UK. With a knack for creating catchy hooks and relatable lyrics, Cardy's music often reflects on themes of dissatisfaction with the social and political climate, personal struggles, and tales of suburban life.

Since his emergence, RAT BOY has released a string of singles and albums that showcase his energy and unique approach to storytelling through music. His early work garnered comparisons to artists like Jamie T and The Streets, but as his catalog has expanded with albums like "SCUM" and "Internationally Unknown," RAT BOY has proven his ability to evolve and refine his sound. Tracks like "SIGN ON" and "GET OVER IT" helped establish his reputation, while more recent releases such as "TEENAGE TEARAWAY" and "TRUTH OF THE YOUTH" solidify his voice as both an artist and commentator on the contemporary youth experience. RAT BOY's work not only captures the spirit of a generation but also showcases his growth and maturation as an innovative figure in modern British music.
