Rap List essentials: JT, Dave, D-Block Europe, Cardi B, ShyGirl and Central Cee

The hottest rap, from Cardi B, Dave, D-Block Europe, JT, Mimi Mxnroe, Knucks and more. This is your certified weekly guide to the hottest tracks in rap, drill, grime and hip-hop.

This is 1Xtra’s Rap List, your weekly fix of the biggest and boldest rap, drill, grime and hip-hop tracks setting the culture alight.

From gritty UK heaters to global smashes, every track bangs. JT’s Girls Gone Wild is tearing it up, D-Block Europe and Central Cee go big on YURR and ShyGirl’s Slime is dripping with attitude. Dave drops double heat with Raindance and The Boy Who Played the Harp, while Mimi Mxnroe, JayG and Pozzy are making serious waves.

Cardi B stays locked in with Safe and Imaginary Playerz, Megan Thee Stallion shows a different side on Lover Girl and Skepta links up with DBE on the heavy Still Together. It’s all killer with fresh fire from Ms Banks, Digga D, Knucks, Shenseea, Yeat, Bryson Tiller, ODUMODUBLVCK and more.

Every tune is handpicked by the BBC Radio 1Xtra team. No skips, just straight heat.

Stay ready. Stay tapped in. The Rap List is what’s really moving the culture.
