Leddie MC is a female MC and producer from Middlesbrough, UK. Born and bred, she tackles the harsh realities of life via her own socially and territorially charged commentary and machine-gun etiquette rap. Starting out as one half of the trailblazing duo Leddie & Smoggy whom dropped their seminal debut Sorry We’re Late in Autumn, 2013. Since the duo mutually agreed to part ways, Leddie has released numerous solo singles and has gained national radio play on BBC Radio 1 and BBC 6 Music. Leddie has continued to performe live extensively throughout the north of England including many crossover festivals such as Twisterella Festival, Evolution Emerging, Music Box and Stockton Calling. Having supported the likes of The Game in her Hometown of Middlesbrough - at his now infamous no-show at Teesside University, Sage Francis and The Epic Beard Men she can now also count Chuck D from Public Enemy as a fan. Known as one of the area’s hardest working, and most consistent artists, She spent her time in lockdown wisely perfecting her craft, honing her writing skills and finding her own identity, readily creating brand new music ready to be released in 2021. Leddie MC’s debut solo album, A Piece of Cake was championed Album Of The Week on Spark FM and caught the attention of Radio 1 but the follow-up, 2018’s Raise A Glass, signalled a more mature direction as the MC adjusted to the truths of adulthood and the perpetual cycle of love and loss that she finds herself trapped in. But, Keen to keep moving forward, developing a higher standard and better quality of music, She decided to delete both previously released albums from all major platforms. Naturally, the next step for her was to start again with her new self produced EP and the stand alone singles she has been working on. 

Leddie’s trademark technical flows and scholarly manner have earned her respect in a tough male dominated scene. Blending her skilled rhyming with gritty and personal lyrics, Leddie has developed an unparalleled ability to make pathos-packed music that is inherently personal to her while making it inclusively relatable to the listener. Her recorded output reflects painstaking attention to detail that has seen her socially aware dispatches mentioned in the same breath as contemporaries like Genesis Elijah and Classified. Her well constructed production paired with a refreshingly savvy approach has became the cornerstone of her own distinctive and soulful sound, deeply influenced by her own storyboard of experiences, personal setbacks and restlessness.
Leddie MC’s self produced EP - Born of Stone was released late 2020 and saw the Teesside lass finally cement her well deserved position as one of the UK’s most original and innovative independent hip-hop acts. 

Self described - Boros best kept secret, we can only hope that Leddie MC isn't kept too much of a secret for much longer.
