Harrison Armstrong (born 9 December 1999), known professionally as Aitch, is a British rapper and songwriter from Manchester. His first track "Straight Rhymez" has garnered over 17 million views and brought him to the attention of London rapper Stormzy.[1]

Aitch has released three singles that have charted within the top 40 in the UK, including "Taste (Make It Shake)", which peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart.[2] He has supported rappers such as Cadet and Wiley on tour.[3] The name "Aitch" derives from the pronunciation of the letter 'h', which is the first letter of his given name.[3]
