Sainté Rapper UK Biography
Sainté, who was born in Leicester, played semi-professional basketball before deciding to pursue a career in music while attending university.
It’s clear he made the right decision after the year he had in 2021. His effortlessly smooth, laid-back rap style was a hit on the underground after he dropped not one but two projects in Local MVP and Out The Blue last year, and if Local MVP was the introduction, then Out The Blue was, by extension, a statement intended to let you know that he’s here to stay.
Sainté takes you on a journey and demonstrates that he’s not a rapper who can be put into a box, sounding equally at home on nu-R&B beats as he does on trap beats on the latter 7-track project, which he collaborated on with artists such as A2, Knucks, and Miraa May.
That makes 2022 even more exciting, because it’s truly anyone’s guess where he’ll go from here. Sainté is almost certain to be the name on everyone’s lips by the end of the year as we slowly emerge from the pandemic.

Career
Seemingly managing both with ease, the 21-year-old bagged his first viral hit with “Champagne Shots”. Imbued with a fluid yet frank delivery, Sainté builds a musical prism weighted in duality; somewhere in-between the cocky one-liners and lyrical diary entries lies the nucleus of his creative driving force.

Everything from the Dave Meyers and Hype Williams-inspired visuals for “No Love” to his carefully curated wardrobe—a futureproof take on what you’d see in an old issue of The Source or XXL Magazine—Sainté is stepping different to everybody else in today’s UK music scene.
With an almost mutant level of artistic growth coursing through his veins, Sainté channelled his efforts into seven gems packaged as songs that we know now to be his latest EP, Out The Blue.
