UK’s legendary label Relentless Records is marking its 25th anniversary with Relentless 25, a limited-edition vinyl boxset that’s a fitting tribute to a quarter-century of shaping British music culture.

Out today, Relentless 25 curates the label’s journey and impact, celebrating genre-defining UK Garage, Grime, and Drill tracks from Artful Dodger, So Solid Crew, Roll Deep, Lethal Bizzle and Headie One along with iconic releases that helped artists like Craig David, Joss Stone, Tom Walker, Daniel Bedingfield, KT Tunstall, Not3s, Jay Sean, Professor Green, Cage The Elephant and Bad Boy Chiller Crew break into the mainstream.

The Relentless 25 boxset is an exclusive 10-disc exploration of the label’s influence across genres, filled with fan favourites, rare remixes, and never-before-seen exclusive archive content. From Artful Dodger’s era-defining UK Garage hit “Re-Rewind” featuring Craig David, to So Solid Crew’s ground-breaking “21 Seconds”, Roll Deep’s “When I’m Ere", "POW (Forward)” by Lethal Bizzle, “Gotta Get Thru This” by Daniel Bedingfield and a full disk dedicated to Headie One featuring Skepta, Dave, AJ Tracy and Stormzy; Relentless 25 showcases how the label have consistently championed British underground music and transformed it into a global influence.

The boxset includes a 28-page booklet filled with seminal archive images including exclusives from photographer Ewen Spencer alongside original sketches from Virgil Abloh for Headie One’s custom Louis Vuitton look at the Brit Awards 2021. Remixes by Grant Nelson and Four Tet add depth to the collection, offering fresh perspectives on tracks that defined eras.

Reflecting on the journey, Relentless Music Group Founder & CEO, Shabs Jobanputra says, “Relentless was born from a late-night conversation in 1999, driven by our passion to create a label for UK Hip Hop and R&B. It’s amazing to see how far we’ve come—all thanks to the artists, the incredible team, and the fans who have kept the vision alive.”

From elevating talents like Jay Sean, and Not3s, to supporting breakthrough artists like So Solid Crew & Headie One, Shabs built Relentless into a genre-spanning label that consistently elevates voices from the UK’s underground to the global stage.

The anniversary comes ahead of the annual Relentless 2025 showcase on January 8th set to spotlight the next generation of talent. Known for championing new voices and taking risks on fresh sounds, Relentless’ showcase will celebrate the label’s enduring role as a springboard for ground-breaking talent, past performances have included the likes of Professor Green, Big Narstie, Nadia Rose, Headie One, Not3s and Bad Boy Chiller Crew.

Through Relentless Music Group which comprises of Relentless Records, artist management company Relentless Talent; higher education music college Notting Hill Academy of Music; West London venue Notting Hill Arts Club (which helped launch the careers of Mark Ronson, Lily Allen, Libertines and more), Shabs continues to pave the way for the next generation of music entrepreneurs and artists ensuring that Relentless’ impact on music and culture endures for the future.
