Talented young Yorkshire rapper Verbalicious is to make her debut appearance at Blue Orchid nightclub on Friday, August 13, where she will be performing her new track Don't Play Nice.

She first made her impact in June 2003 where One Music and Radio 1 presenters Bobby Friction and Nihal organised an Asian Flavas MC Battle for Radio 1 on the road in Leeds.

Blue Orchid manager Andy Millichamp said: "For someone so young, Verbalicious explodes with confidence."

With a track already recorded for the forthcoming Disney film Sleepover and her debut album due for release in the autumn, Verbalicious is taking steps into the mainstream. Catch her on the way up.
