Jan Maarschalk Lemmens, professionally known as Glints, is a Flemish rapper and singer. Born in Antwerp, he released his first single "Dread" in 2014, with the self-titled début EP Glints following a year later.[1]
In 2018, Glints released the single "Bugatti", the lead single off an as of now untitled first album.[2][3] The song marked a shift away from his prior indie pop sound into more grime-influenced material, and became a minor hit in Belgium.[4] Glints has also collaborated with electronic duo VRWRK on several occasions, most notoriously on their single "New Flow".[5][6]
Glints has played sets at several major music festivals, notably at Pukkelpop in 2017.[7][8]
