Sooner or later, Rat Boy will break through big time. 21-year-old Jordan Cardy has the same swagger as his musical heroes Blur and Babyshambles (he signed to the same label as well), while he also cites The Beastie Boys and Kasabian as his influences. Personally, I also hear a younger Fatboy Slim in some of his songs. In Move, for example.

Other fine tunes of his are Wasteman and Get Over It (2016’s summer hit that never was), and now, he’s back with Revolution. I expect it to enter the European Border Breakers Chart soon, but today it’s on Carte Blanche Music already.

They also pull it off live, by the way…
