A visionary musical series set
around the British rap & drill scene

JUNGLE

Client | Nothing Lost

Fonic worked on Amazon Prime Video’s series, JUNGLE, a series centring on the British rap and drill scenes. Created and executive produce by Nothing Lost, Junior Okoli and Chas Appeti, who were both featured on Variety’s Ten Europeans to Watch list 2022, with Okoli also directing.

Made up of six episodes, and set in a semi-futuristic inner city London, where the sun never rises, the series tells the overlapping stories of several strangers overcoming various struggles. The series gives a perspective into an unseen world full of violence, paranoia and anxiety, where one law governs everything; only the strongest will survive. As the strangers’ worlds begin to unravel around them, they come to the realisation that every action, no matter how small, has a consequence.

The U.K.’s top rap and drill artists feature in the series, including Tinie Tempah, Big Narstie, Unknown T, Jordan McCann, Jaykae, IAMDDB, Double Lz, M24 and more. The visionary and groundbreaking use of the music, where dialogue morphs into rap with characters spitting bars over drill beats makes perfect sense: storytelling has always been an essential part of drill, as it was in grime and hip-hop before it.

Fonic provided ADR, voice over records and foley record and edit.
