Loyle Carner responds directly to Turner Prize 2014 nominated artist Tris Vonna-Michell’s intense storytelling monolgues, included as part of his audiovisual installation in the exhibition at Tate Britain. Building stories triggered from images, Loyle Carner raps a nostalgic narrative as a stream of consciousness, mirroring Vonna-Michell’s approach.
Loyle Carner is a 20 year old emcee from South London with an emotive and powerful way with words. His music is raw and heartfelt, his words eloquently expressing the frustration and complications of a young mans journey through love, lust and loss.
