Exclusive Lowkey track

Up and coming British hip-hop artist Lowkey has written an exclusive track called Don't Hide It, in support of the NSPCC's Don't Hide It campaign which urges children and young people to speak out about violence and abuse.

Known in the hip-hop community for his hard-hitting rhymes, the 20-year old rapper has in the past tackled modern day child slavery and global violence in his songs.
