Submission declined on 26 October 2024 by KylieTastic (talk).

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.
If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.

MC Shutts (Chris Shutts) is a British MC who began his career in 2007. His journey in UK hardcore music started while working at Sainsbury's alongside future MCs, Chris Freeman (MC 3Man) and Alex Dadson (MC Nemesis). During their lunch breaks, the three friends would gather in Shutts' car, listening to UK Hardcore CDs. Inspired by Freeman's impromptu lyric performances over the music, the trio began writing their own rhymes, laying the groundwork for what would become Underground Revolutions.

Shutts’ career began modestly, hosting a weekly radio show on "Headrush Live" alongside other MCs and DJs from the Underground Revolutions crew, including DJ Shift-D, DJ Slic, and later DJ Global (who replaced DJ Camo).

In April 2010, the Underground Revolutions team expanded into event promotion, hosting rave events at Jäger Bar in Melksham, Wiltshire. The popularity of these events quickly outgrew the venue, leading them to relocate to Club Ice in Westbury. There, Underground Revolutions partnered with Urban Mashup to create Adrenaline Stompers, with Shutts and Freeman as the main promoters.

As his reputation grew, MC Shutts secured residencies at several prominent events, such as Serious Sounds in Wales, Raveolution in Salisbury, and the renowned HTID (Hardcore Till I Die). His first studio mix was produced with Alex Prospect in 2012, and by 2013, he had signed as an artist with Future of Hardcore.

In addition to live performances, MC Shutts joined the Demo Sessions team, contributing to studio releases in both UK Hardcore and Drum and Bass genres.

After taking a hiatus in May 2017 to focus on family, MC Shutts made a much-anticipated return to the UK Hardcore scene in 2024.
