Shylo Batchelor Ashby Milwood (born 20 March 1996), known professionally as Russ Millions (formerly Russ, Russ Splash or RussMB), is a British rapper. In December 2018 he released his single "Gun Lean" on Virgin Records.[2] The track peaked at number 9 on the UK Singles Chart,[3] becoming the first UK drill track to reach the top 10.[4] Russ Millions has collaborated with Buni, Taze, Tion Wayne, Digga D, Pressa, LD and Dappy.[5][6]

The dance that Russ performs in the music video became a "dance craze" and was mimicked by footballers including Jesse Lingard.[7] It was ranked by The Guardian at number 10 on their list of "greatest pop music dance crazes".[8]

In April 2019 his follow-up single "Keisha & Becky" with Tion Wayne entered the UK Singles Chart at number 19, and later peaked at number seven. The song was later certified Platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI).[3] As a lead, he had his first number 1 with "Body" alongside Tion Wayne. He has Nigerian origins and is of Yoruba ethnicity.
