The Yutes have joined Popcaan for a nine-date European tour to build support for their forthcoming debut album, Ghetto Yutes.

The Streets is the latest single from The Yutes forthcoming debut album. Produced by JP Soundz, the track offers a gritty outlook over tough instrumental.

The Yutes (Jamaican patois for The Youth), the brother duo composed of Chris and Santris, deftly combine their Jamaican heritage with modern trap elements into a dynamic sound with eclectic appeal. The sons of dancehall legend Mr Lexx, The Yutes leverage an unparalleled authenticity and heightened musical sensibility to consistently push the creative envelope.

They are scheduled to support Popcaan in various European cities, including Berlin, Paris, Oslo, Stockholm, Dublin, Manchester, and Amsterdam. They plan to stop over in the UK, meeting gatekeepers within the scene and diving into the heritage of Jamaican music whilst in London.

During their tour, The Yutes will have a promotional window in London from November 22-24, 2023. This period will be dedicated to engaging with UK radio stations through interviews, sessions, and other promotional activities. The aim is to introduce their music to a wider audience.

Chuck Wilson, CEO of legendary NYC-based independent hip hop label Babygrande, said: “We’ve been building The Yutes for a minute in the US and Caribbean, and are now looking forward to sharing their music with a broader international audience. They’re keen to connect with UK audiences in a meaningful way — building bridges for future collaboration whilst on this huge Popcaan EU tour.”

The Yutes made 2021 theirs, as they quickly followed their Curren$y-assisted High Grade collaboration with the mesmerising Shomi Patwary-directed Bring It Back official video and In The Kitchen featuring Stove God Cooks.

The Jamaican style-benders’ unique artistry earned them a collection of accolades, including placement on A3C Volume 7 with Trap Don Dadas, and a show-stealing performance at Art Basel Miami 2022.

Now, following their 2022 debut Get Money with Masicka and the Govana-assisted single Riches & Power, The Yutes drop Better Days, the third and final single from their forthcoming album.
