Lloyd Luther (Artist)
Known for his uniquely lyrical ability, positive content, and eclectic, hypnotic production style, Lloyd Luther has been making noise in the UK for years.
Then came ‘Drugs on Tap’—a powerful diatribe on the state of the pharmaceutical industry—which was featured in the soundtrack for Netflix’s series Top Boy. This marked Lloyd’s entry into mainstream rap culture, where he has since cemented his reputation. His music has gone on to feature in various Netflix programmes and advertising campaigns.
Cameron Lloyd Luther Johnson is a British rap artist and producer from Leicester City. He spent his early life in Streatham, South London, where he was born. His sound is influenced by a wide range of genres including Drill, Hip Hop, and Grime, as well as artists such as Daft Punk and Massive Attack.
Music began as an escape for Lloyd, but a near-death experience in hospital gave him the urgency to share his work with the world. Staying true to himself became the higher goal.
He delivers with an uncompromising, relentless style, showing deep knowledge of the topics he explores—from science, philosophy, politics, and history, to sharp references from popular culture.
Lloyd has won high praise from respected figures including Noel Gallagher of Oasis and DJ Semtex.
He has an extensive catalogue of fully self-produced albums, including:
Dubs of the Mad Skint and British (series, 2015–2017)
Reprogram (2021)
These Are The Times (2023)
Riddims, Roads and Mantras of Freedom (2024)
Death of All Stars (forthcoming, 2025)
The themes of these projects range from fame and poverty to personal redemption and political commentary. Lloyd has established himself as a mainstream rap artist and producer—without ever signing to an independent or major label.
Outside of music, for over 13 years, Lloyd has run a music teaching and youth work service through his independent label U.G Station. He has worked with organisations such as EAVA FM, Y.E.P, VRN - Leicestershire Police, Soft Touch Arts, Pedestrian, 2Funky Arts, HQ CAN, De Montfort University, and NHS mental health services.
These projects support emerging artists, young people affected by mental health issues, and vulnerable youth—offering production lessons, music therapy, business, and life skills training.
Lloyd is also active in philanthropy, working closely with Love Music Hate Racism and national equality boards. He has delivered talks on poverty, politics, and racism, and has taken part in protest movements.
He is also a director of FDF (Future Development Facilitators), a CIC (Community Interest Company) offering bespoke, future-facing approaches to culture, education, development, the arts, and events.
