Born in Newport, South Wales, and having spent significant time living in the borough of Southwark, London, Glanvoe seamlessly blends his British upbringing with the dynamic energy of the city. Surprising to some, he has Caribbean roots that trace back to his grandfather from Martinique, adding a unique and distinctive edge. His unique style executing Drill and Trap, makes him the only Orthodox Christian artist in the UK to fuse urban music with a spiritual message.
