By Chief Editor | 2/5/2026

EsDeeKid drops 'Omens,' his first 2026 release produced by 6cppo with Archie Erskine visuals. Liverpool's masked rap sensation continues his meteoric rise.

Key Points

## The Scouse Underground King Returns EsDeeKid has been growing his fan base every week it feels like and with the way he ended 2025, we can only imagine what success in 2026 will look like for him. He's kicking off his new year musically with a braggadocious and ignorant slapper titled "Omens" out as of today. The Liverpool enigma isn't slowing down. Fresh off his single "Phantom" (with Rico Ace) accumulating more than 170 million streams, and album Rebel charting in multiple European countries, as well as peaked at number 23 on the US Billboard 200, EsDeeKid is doubling down on the sound that made him "the fastest-growing artist in the world right now" according to Dazed. Featuring horror-movie like keys, trunk-rattling 808s, and a steady stream of machine gun-esque hi-hats, EsDeeKid finds a head-bopping pocket right away. It makes for an entertaining but brief 2:00 minute listen that gives fans just enough to chew on while he assuredly works on his next release. ## The Power Players Behind The Sound The production comes from 6cppo, a producer making waves in the drill scene. Co-produced work includes tracks with EsDeeKid, cementing his place in the UK underground ecosystem. Directing duties fall to Archie Erskine, a UK-based video director carving out a distinctive niche within the underground hip hop and rap scene. Known for his innovative, experimental approach and striking visual language, his work blends raw energy with vivid, cinematic treatments. Archie has directed standout projects such as EsDeeKid ft. Timothée Chalamet: 4Raws (Remix), establishing himself as an emerging creative voice in contemporary music visuals. ## The Mystery Continues EsDeeKid's identity remains unknown; he covers his face with a balaclava and keeps personal information, such as his age, private. He performs with his face concealed by a balaclava and has not publicly disclosed his real name, age or detailed biographical information. The Timothée Chalamet conspiracy theories only added fuel to his viral fire. In November 2025, rumours began to circulate on TikTok that EsDeeKid's actual identity was American-French actor Timothée Chalamet. The theory was widely reported in music and entertainment media, and became the subject of thinkpieces about anonymity in popular music. The theory led to widespread memes about a potential connection. "Omens" proves EsDeeKid doesn't need gimmicks. Just that thick Scouse drawl over menacing production. The balaclava stays on, the streams keep climbing, and the mystery deepens.
