UK grime artist Ghetts, whose real name is Justin Clarke-Samuel, has been sentenced to 12 years in prison for causing the death of a student in a hit-and-run incident. The 41-year-old pleaded guilty to dangerous driving charges after striking 20-year-old Yubin Tamang in Ilford, London, last October. He has also been banned from driving for 17 years.
The UK's nightclub sector has criticized the government's recent decision to exclude them from a new business rates relief scheme, despite a U-turn providing support for pubs and live music venues. Industry leaders warn that this oversight could accelerate venue closures amid a 32% drop in nightclubs since 2017. The Night Time Industries Association argues the policy undermines the cultural and economic value of electronic music spaces.
