DRAGG

Born in Johannesburg, Lawrence Sean Sibanda, aka DRAGG, found his musical roots in the diverse sounds of his mother's collection. At 12, DRAGG faced a life-altering battle with meningitis, losing his eyesight in the process.

Johannesburg's rich music scene shaped DRAGG's taste, leading him to embrace SA Hip Hop, RnB, and Kwaito. Influenced by Skwatacamp, TK, Mandoza, and Zola 7, his musical journey unfolded.

In 2006, DRAGG moved to the UK. It was then, at the height of the 50 Cent and G-Unit era, that he fully immersed himself in the culture. West Coast rapper The Game became a pivotal influence, with his album "Doctor's Advocate" serving as a defining moment that propelled DRAGG into the world of hip hop. Opening for The Game in 2010 marked DRAGG's full-circle connection with his rap idol.

DRAGG has shared stages with UK Icons like Wretch 32, Tim Westwood, and DJ Ace. His collaborations include Lady Leshurr, O.D Hunte, Paigey Cakey, and Millyz.

In 2025, DRAGG re‑introduced his fan‑favorite single “Foreign” with a powerful remaster and an energized new music video. Produced by platinum‑selling beatmaker gTbeats, and the visual is co‑directed by Thokozani “Tuks” Lungu, the acclaimed stunt performer seen in Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning and The Woman King.
the video premiered exclusively on LinkUpTV UK on August 1, 2025.
