Biography
Justin Reggie Samuel Clark (born October 11, 1984), better known by his stage name Ghetts (previously Ghetto), is a veteran Grime MC coming from Plaistow E13 in the borough of Newham, East London.
He is a founding member of The Movement, a crew he formed after leaving F.A.G Crew due to being disillusioned with the fall-outs occurring amongst the members and is now regarded as one of the premier MC’s in the Grime scene. He is now focusing on his own solo career, releasing three mixtapes in the past 3 years and is currently completing his highly anticipated debut album, rumoured to be in stores for summer 2009.
Growing up in a Christian househould, he was influenced heavily by listening to gospel and jazz music. He didn’t perform well at school and starting at age 16 he was in and out of prison for robberies and several car offences. According to an interview in 2006, the origins of his nickname was from his actions as a youth which were classed as “ghetto”.
In September 2007 the video for ‘Top 3 Selected’ from the album Ghetto Gospel was aired on Channel U. He has also featured on videos with Kano, The Streets, and Professor Green. In September 2008, Ghetts released a video for his single Sing 4 Me (produced by Rude Kid). This was then followed by two further videos, one for Don’t Phone Me (feat. Griminal and produced by Nocturnal), and the second for a remix to Sing For Me (produced by Rude Kid), which was first aired end of 2008/beginning of 2009.
