Hope Dealers are a group based within London that pioneered the ‘Gospel Drill’ sound.
Gospel Drill is a subgenre of UK Drill that places emphasis upon Christian values/lyrics, as opposed to violence. In theory, by co-opting a popular sound, they are attempting to turn youth away from gangs and towards Christianity.
Hope Dealers became ‘viral’ after a video surfaced of them performing Gospel Drill music in church whilst wearing balaclavas.
The group is affiliated with the somewhat controversial church, SPAC Nation.
The most popular song by Hope Dealers's is Trap Mash
Hope Dealers's first song Matching Skengs released on Sun Mar 03 2019.
