SKEPTA ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM “FORK & KNIFE” FOR EARLY 2026

UK grime icon Skepta has officially confirmed the title of his forthcoming solo studio album as “Fork & Knife”, set for release in early 2026. This marks Skepta’s first full solo album since 2019’s Ignorance Is Bliss, ending a gap of six years without a solo project. The rapper, known for his boundary-pushing sound and role in evolving the UK grime scene into a global phenomenon, told fans that Fork & Knife will explore his heritage, life experiences and the immigrant mindset, themes he describes as deeply personal and reflective.

While full details remain scarce, tracklist, guest features and final release date are yet to be revealed, anticipation is high. Skepta’s career has been defined by reinvention and influence, and this next chapter seems deliberately positioned as both a return and a reset.

As fans globally begin to speculate on what sonic terrain Skepta will traverse next, whether a return to raw grime roots or continued genre-blending experimentation, one thing is clear: Fork & Knife is shaping up to be one of 2026’s most anticipated albums.
