Kunt and the Gang is a British dark musical comedy songwriter and performer from Basildon, Essex.[5] Despite the "and the Gang" in the stage name, the act comprises a single performer, whose real name is Wayne Clements.[6]
Kunt is also known for founding the spin-off project The Kunts, who have had four top twenty hits in the UK Singles Chart, including the controversial track "Boris Johnson Is a Fucking Cunt" and its follow-up "Boris Johnson Is Still a Fucking Cunt", which reached number five for Christmas 2020 and 2021 respectively. These were followed by "Prince Andrew Is a Sweaty Nonce" (no. 20) and "Fuck the Tories" (no. 7). A fifth hit, "Scrap the Monarchy" was released as "The Krown Jewelz" and reached number nine. The band released another Christmas single, "Proper Christmas", as "The Krackpots" in 2023, but this song failed to chart in the top 100.
Kunt and the Gang has also released music under the pseudonym of his hand puppet sidekick, Little Kunt, and using the moniker of Kunt and the Gang Presents (for Shannon Matthews: The Musical, a comedy musical based on the faked kidnapping of Yorkshire girl Shannon Matthews).
Kunt and the Gang rose to prominence making crude synthpop songs related to sexual intercourse and controversial public figures, and was initially active from 2003 to 2016. In 2010, he first achieved chart success when his single "Use My Arsehole as a Cunt (The Nick Clegg Story)" reached number No. 66 in the UK Singles Chart at Christmas time.[7][8][9] The following year, another single, "Fucksticks (Royal Wedding Souvenir Version)", also entered the same chart, this time at number No. 63.[10]
He released ten studio albums before retiring his main act in 2016, and published an autobiography iKunt[11] in December 2018. He returned to social media in 2020 during the COVID-19 Pandemic hosting a nightly livestream, Kunt's Korona Klub.[citation needed]
In September 2020 Kunt started a monthly nostalgia podcast, Acceptable In The Eighties, with his oldest childhood friend, Stuart 'Roy' Whiffen.[citation needed]
