Gracious K was born in Rush Green to a Ghanaian family. He is Dizzee Rascal's cousin and he has been performing and making music since his early teens.
What started out as a joke in his St Bonaventures, East London school playground turned more serious as more people started following his rhymes and he began building his profile as a real artist.
Gracious K is famous as the creator of the highly addictive Migraine Skank, the head-swaying dance that has swept across the nation's dancefloors and became a YouTube phenomenon, notching up 1.8m hits by August 2009. The success of Migraine Skank has resulted in a plethora of fan-made videos, with everyone from groups of school kids, clubbers and even Ikea shoppers performing the dance.
