After previously entering the 2011 UK MC’s at a respectable No.9, the dynamic rapping duo Krept & Konan have topped this year’s Best Of The Best: UK MCs list taking the title from two-time winner Wretch 32!

Starting off 2013 as an unsigned act, the pair made history when they released their Young Kingz album scoring a Guinness World record for the highest charting UK album by an unsigned act.

Their track Don’t Waste My Time became an anthem resulting in numerous remixes by UK MCs and going international with French Montana putting out his own version.

From Paranormal Activity, to Numb and then My Story this duo have shown their versatility and excelled in all categories making them stand out winners of this year’s list.
