AITCH IN THE PLACE

Who is Aitch and what’s his real name?

CHART-topper Aitch has cemented himself as one of the UK's most promising stars.

But who is the Mancunian rapper that is taking part in Soccer Aid 2022?

Who is Aitch and what is his real name?

Aitch is a rapper and songwriter from Manchester, born on December 9th, 1999.

The 22-year-old has managed to take the music scene by storm after his breakthrough single Straight Rhymez took the internet by storm while he was working on a building site.

The northern artist, whose real name is Harrison Armstrong, explained he came up with his unusual moniker because: "My real name begins with the letter H, so I’ve been called ‘H’ from time.

"But because I’m from there everyone says it like ‘aitch’ so I just spelled it like that."
