Hak Baker is a distinctive voice in British music, blending raw storytelling with genre-defying sound. Hailing from London’s Isle of Dogs, his music captures vivid tales of inner-city life, weaving themes of vulnerability, rebellion, and social upheaval. With his self-styled "G-Folk" sound, Hak resonates with a diverse fanbase, earning admiration from artists like Celeste, Skepta, Fontaines DC, and Joy Crookes.
Known for his poetic lyricism and authentic voice, Hak has redefined what it means to be a modern folk artist, drawing comparisons to icons like Benjamin Zephaniah, The Streets, and Madness. His debut album, World’s End FM, channels the energy of a pirate radio broadcast on the brink of apocalypse. With its mix of post-punk, roots reggae, and poignant storytelling, the album delivers a bold message of unity, protest, and hope.
Hak Baker is not just making music—he’s redefining the soundtrack of a generation navigating chaos and change.
