Signkid

Signkid is the UK’s first and only deaf music producer, writer, and performer to have pioneered and
developed a unique aesthetic by integrating and adapting British Sign Language (BSL) signing into a
visually based language suited specifically for live Hip-Hop, Rap, and Urban music performance. He
has subsequently evolved this approach into music video production by simultaneously overlaying a
hearing rapper onto his distinctive BSL performance. SignKid has performed at festivals including
Deaf Rave, Boomtown, Wireless, and Latitude, and has had BBC Breakfast News, BBC News,
BBC Extra BBC radio, ITV News coverage and PRS Magazine. He featured in a LadBible x Smirnoff advert.festival.
