100% Publishing

Well known as the godfather of grime and Lord Byron of rap, Wiley has been an influence to major acts including Dizzee Rascal, The Streets and Plan B. And of course he had a massive worldwide chart hits with "Wearing My Rolex" and "Cash In My Pocket" and worked with artists like Mark Ronson. '100% Publishing' was one hundred per cent written, produced, vocalled and recorded by Richard Cowie, the shadowy figure behind the Wiley persona. Throughout, he spits lines which are often funny, sometimes shocking, regularly surprising and always shot through with a surreal lyrical brilliance. '100% Publishing' leaves no doubt that Wiley has secured himself as a supreme lyricist who is leading the way for innovative hip hop.
