Beano

Hailing from Dublin, Ireland, Beano is a fast-rising star of the Irish hip-hop community. His most recent releases have seen him turn the heads of the music press across the UK and Ireland, sharing stages with the likes of Fliptrix & Verb T, making an appearance at Electric Picnic and selling out shows across Ireland. Showing no signs of slowing down, Dublin-based rapper Beano is back for 2025 with the release of his new EP ‘Trap #7’. Produced by fellow Ireland-based contemporary No Venom, the EP looks to further cement Beano as a fast-rising hip-hop star. Cutting waves with pounding percussion and conscious lyricism, ‘Trap #7’ pulls no punches inside its riotous flow. Consisting of seven tracks, all equally as alluring as the next, the EP marks an exciting new chapter in Beano’s artistic journey. Armed with emphatic breakbeats and engrossing toplines, the EP additionally features contributions from contemporaries Verb T, Panda Drey and Donkobz. ‘Trap #7’ nods its hat to a legendary set of nineties hip-hop influences that it precedes with its engrossing flows and irresistible melodies, pushing forward with an indubitable momentum. Since debuting in 2022, his music has pushed the boundaries of contemporary hip-hop, lacing his unique sound with nods to the genre's nostalgic history with an unparalleled contemporary twist. Looking ahead, 2025 promises to be an exciting year for Beano with the release of his new EP ‘Trap #7’ via Outstraight Records. 'TRAP #7' Out 31.1.25.
