Global drill sensation
Digga D has had his fair share of interaction with police authority and the legal system. The impact of the censorship and current scrutiny over his creative output continues to influence the messages and any lyrical content he can convey to his rapidly growing fanbase.
But the restrictions are yet to prevent him from reaching people around the world. If his gritty, somewhat edgy debut âDouble Tap Diariesâ from 2019 showcases his ability to thought-provoke and surprise, âMade In the Pyrexâ is more grounded as a follow-up. It is diverse, but settled in direction, settling for a safer delivery and execution.

The metalcore group, a genre which combines extreme metal and punk, pulled ahead by 550 chart sales to earn their first chart-topping album since forming in 2004, according to the Official Charts Company.
It is not only the band’s first number one but also their first top 10 album – with their previous peak of number 15 coming in 2016.

Thank you to every single person who bought this record. We love you so much and we could not have done this without you.
