Jah Digga: Nottingham’s Voice of Truth Returns with Raw New Freestyle and Expansive Creative Vision.

Nottingham’s creative heartbeat is pulsing louder than ever, and at its center stands Jah Digga—rapper, poet, youth mentor, and one of the UK’s most vital artistic voices. Born Jourdan Blair, Jah Digga has spent over 15 years weaving together music, spoken word, and social commentary into a tapestry that reflects the struggles, triumphs, and truths of urban Britain. Now, with his latest release “Addictions (Freestyle),” he’s not just making noise—he’s making impact.© A Freestyle That’s Anything But Freestyle©Released earlier this year, “Addictions (Freestyle)” is a blisteringly honest reflection on personal battles with addiction, choice, and consequence. Far from a throwaway track, the freestyle has become a cultural moment. After being posted on Instagram and TikTok, the video exploded—garnering over 2 million views and sparking conversations across platforms. On Spotify, the track has racked up more than 80,000 streams, and endorsements from UK music heavyweights DJ Semtex and Remi Burgz have cemented its place as one of 2025’s most resonant underground releases.

The sound? A fusion of grime’s grit, hip-hop’s cadence, and jazz’s introspective soul. But it’s the lyrics that cut deepest. Jah Digga doesn’t just rhyme—he reveals. His voice is textured with lived experience, and his words carry the weight of someone who’s seen the edge and chosen to speak from it.

More Than Music: A Mission to Empower.

Jah Digga’s artistry is inseparable from his activism. As a youth mentor, he’s spent years working with Nottingham’s young people, using creativity as a tool for empowerment. His quote—“Forget the platform. As artists, we’re all responsible, because we’re projecting. And the kids out there are listening.”—is more than a soundbite. It’s a philosophy.

In a time when virality often trumps vulnerability, Jah Digga stands firm in his belief that artists must be accountable for the messages they send. His work bridges the personal and the political, the poetic and the practical. Whether on stage or in community centers, he’s building something bigger than himself.

What’s Next: EPs, Films, and European Stages.

©he momentum isn’t slowing. Coming early next year is a British drama EP—an ambitious project that promises to blend narrative storytelling with sonic experimentation. If “Addictions” was the confessional, this EP might be the cinematic sequel.

Before that, fans can expect the release of “Broken Blokes” in November—a single that’s already generating buzz for its raw portrayal of masculinity, vulnerability, and healing. It’s expected to push Jah Digga’s lyrical boundaries even further, offering another chapter in his ongoing exploration of identity and resilience.

Live shows are also on the horizon. Headline performances are scheduled across the UK, with plans underway to take the energy across Europe. For an artist whose work is rooted in local truth but speaks to global struggles, the expansion feels both natural and necessary.

And in yet another creative lane, Jah Digga is currently co-writing scripts for a series of short films. While details remain under wraps, the project is said to explore themes of urban life, generational trauma, and redemption—echoing the motifs that have defined his music.

A Voice That Carries

In a landscape often dominated by fleeting trends and algorithm-driven fame, Jah Digga is a reminder of what artistry can be: rooted, responsible, and revolutionary. His work doesn’t just entertain—it educates, elevates, and empowers.

From Nottingham’s streets to Europe’s stages, from viral freestyles to cinematic scripts, Jah Digga is building a legacy that refuses to be boxed in. And as he continues to evolve, one thing remains clear: the kids are listening—and so is the world.
