    Not only is the youngster known for his unique sound, but he also featured on Shiro’s Story Part 3 back in 2018.

    Deno and Cadet released an independent tune, ‘Advice’, back in September 2018, which peaked at number 27 on the Official Charts with no label help. 

    The pair’s tune went Brit Certified Silver and were in the charts top 40 for 15 weeks.

    The south-London rapper, Cadet, – real name Blaine Cameron Johnson – died in the early hours of 9th February 2019.

    The news of Cadet’s passing was confirmed by his family via Cadet’s Instagram page.

    Friends and family have been paying their tributes to the underrated legend online, including his renowned cousin, Krept – who is one half of rapping duo, Krept and Konan. 

    My life will never be the same again. I love you and will forever miss you. I cant believe it. I am heartbroken. Rest in peace cuz. You finally started getting the recognition you deserved. Im so proud of you. My left lung. Im devestated and broken right now ?? pic.twitter.com/125pWPMzO1

    Krept and Cadet’s mother are now asking for ideas for something to do or build in honour of Cadet.
