Tyron Kaymone Frampton (born 18 December 1994[1]), better known by his stage name Slowthai (stylised in lowercase), is a British rapper.

Raised in Northampton,[3] he rose to popularity in 2019 for his gritty and rough instrumentals and raw, politically charged lyrics, especially around Brexit and Theresa May's tenure as British prime minister.

Frampton has ADHD[7] and frequently skipped school during his years at Northampton Academy, often spending time at a nearby underground "recording studio" at his friend's house, only stopping when his mother was forced to attend a compulsory court hearing.

[8] After college, Frampton had multiple short stints in employment, working as a labourer, a plasterer, and at a branch of Next before being fired for breach of contract after he gave his friend employee discounts.

[11][12] In 2017, Slowthai partnered up with indie record label Bone Soda to release his I Wish I Knew EP, "Murder" and "T n Biscuits".

[20] Slowthai contributed additional, uncredited vocals on the song "What's Good"[21] from Tyler, the Creator's album Igor.

He is also featured on "Heaven Belongs to You"[22] from Brockhampton's album Ginger and later joined their HBTY North American tour in 2019 as the special guest.

[23] In January 2020, Slowthai was featured alongside UK punk band Slaves on Gorillaz's single "Momentary Bliss".

[33] On 18 December 2020, Slowthai released "Thoughts" as a non-album single, along with a lyric video that featured local police responding to a complaint of a social gathering.

[36] On 12 February 2021, Slowthai released the album Tyron, which has features including Skepta, Dominic Fike, James Blake, A$AP Rocky and Denzel Curry.

[47][48] In February 2023, in an interview with Rolling Stone, Slowthai confirmed his relationship with British pop singer Anne-Marie,[48] whom he started dating in early 2022.

Heather Stangoe, prosecuting, told the court that the defendants allegedly raped two women on a rooftop, "high-fived, discussed 'tag teams' and contemplated swapping the girls."

During his statement, Gibbs highlighted "a dozen problems" with the prosecution's case, while Sheryl Nwosu, defending Blake-Walker, questioned the reliability of the testimony provided by one of the complainants.

[75] In an article for Vice Media, Niloufar Haidari described his music as "caustically witty bars over abrasive beats that blend grime, trap, Soundcloud rap and even punk and screamo".

[76] He has cited as musical influences Gesaffelstein, Juelz Santana, Elliott Smith, Radiohead, Nirvana, Mount Kimbie, Alex Turner of Arctic Monkeys, Jay-Z, Sex Pistols, Justice, Oasis, Kanye West and Die Antwoord.
