History of Dave

Dave, whose full name is David Orobosa Omoregie, is a British rapper, singer, songwriter, and producer from Streatham, South London. Rising to prominence in the mid-2010s with his introspective lyricism and sharp social commentary, he quickly became one of the UK’s most influential artists. His debut EP Six Paths (2016) and breakthrough single “Thiago Silva” with AJ Tracey showcased his lyrical depth and technical skill, while his Mercury Prize-winning debut album Psychodrama (2019) cemented his reputation as a powerful storyteller unafraid to tackle themes of race, mental health, and identity. His follow-up, We’re All Alone in This Together (2021), further solidified his place at the top of the UK rap scene, earning critical acclaim and commercial success. Known for his honesty, intelligence, and artistry, Dave continues to shape modern British music with each release.
