Milton Keynes rapper, 19, releases new song with Grand Theft Auto-inspired video

Niko B, from Newport Pagnell, released his self-directed video today which was shot 'in and around' Milton Keynes and draws inspiration from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (GTA), a popular video game from the early 2000s.

The 19-year-old said: "Quick Drive was made for people to bop to and just like uplift the listener. I direct my own music videos, the way I came up with the Quick Drive video is I just listened to it on repeat during a train journey and had my notebook out and then drew each scene that would pop up in my head as I was listening to the song.

"When I make a song I can, like, immediately vision how the video is going to look, and for this one, for some reason, I wanted a scene where I headbutt my friend over a kit-kat and also have a referee give someone a red card over a game of hopscotch.”

Niko B, whose stage name is taken from the GTA character Niko Bellic, has gained attention in the last eight months and has had over 30 million combined streams from just two songs, including Who's That What's That.

He will be performing at Reading and Leeds Festivals next year, which is a 'dream come true for him'.
