Aaron Daniel Davies (born 20 December 1990), known professionally as Bugzy Malone, is a British rapper and actor from Manchester, England.[3][4] Malone has been described as one of the key artists instigating a "grime revival" moving the UK urban scene away from more commercially-oriented music,[5] and the first artist in the grime genre from Manchester to commercially succeed in the UK.[6]

Malone's album King of the North was released on 14 July 2017 and peaked at No. 4 on the UK Albums Chart.
