Daniel Lena, better known by his stage name Unknown T, is a drill rapper and singer. His first official single, "Homerton B", peaked at number 48 on the UK Singles Chart in October 2018. [1] Though it was originally released without a label,[2] its chart performance led to him being signed by Universal Music Group.[3] It was included in a number of publications "best of 2018" lists, including The Guardian,[4] Mixmag,[5] and Complex.[6]
On 16th July 2019, Lena was charged with murder and violent disorder. He allegedly fatally stabbed 20-year-old Steven Narvaez-Jara during a party in Islington, London in the early hours of 1st January 2018. Two other men have been charged in relation to the case. Police say they were called by the London Ambulance Service in the early hours of Monday, 1 January 2018 to a flat near Old Street Station. The dead man - from Belvedere on the border of Kent and London - was found with stab injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene. Another 20-year-old man who was found at the scene with stab injuries was taken to hospital and recovered. Narvaez-Jara was London’s first stab victim in 2018.[7]
