UK drill artist Unknown T, 20, has been cleared of murder at London's Old Bailey.

Best known for his 2018 breakout single "Homerton B", the rapper was charged with murder after Steven Narvaez-Jara, who was 20 at the time, died in the early hours of New Year's Day 2018 after being stabbed in the heart at a house party in Islington, North London. 

Following the incident he was being sent down for, Unknown T ticked off crazy performances at Wireless Festival and at the 02 alongside Drake, while also signing a record deal with Universal.

When giving evidence in the court, Unknown T said he was "shocked and traumatised" following the violence and denied being one of the attackers. The jury deliberated for more than 18 hours to find him not guilty of murder and violent disorder. 

Upon his release from prison, Unknown T took to Instagram to say: "Thank God. Now back to work, back to life!"

With the rapper now free from prison, here's hoping we'll get some new music soon.
