Signed by Jadakiss to build D-Block’s only branch outside America, D-Block Europe return to The O2 arena this October.
D-Block Europe, the rap act with the most top-ten albums in British chart history, return to The O2 arena in North Greenwich on Wednesday 28 October 2026. French Montana joins them as support.
The duo are Adam Williams and Ricky Banton, who rap as Young Adz and Dirtbike LB and grew up in Lewisham. Williams began making music in 2010. In 2013 Jadakiss heard him, flew to London and opened a European arm of his D-Block label around the pair, which gave them their name.
They spent six years releasing mixtapes before a studio album. The Blue Print: Us vs. Them reached number two in Britain in 2020.
Lap 5 matched it two years later, and DBE World, their seventh top-ten album, went to number six in 2023.
Their singles include “Overseas”, with Central Cee, a number six. “Prada”, a reworking of their own “Ferrari Horses”, went to number two and topped the singles chart in Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands and Sweden.
D-Block Records is a New York label founded by Jadakiss, and its only branch outside America is the one he built around these two rappers. The O2 date is a return booking for them.
