Kneecap are an Irish hip-hop trio from Belfast, Northern Ireland. It comprises Mo Chara, Móglaí Bap and DJ Próvaí, the stage names of Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh, Naoise Ó Cairealláin and J. J. Ó Dochartaigh, respectively. They rap in a mixture of English and Irish. Their first single "C.E.A.R.T.A." (cearta is Irish for 'rights') was released in 2017, followed by their debut studio album, 3CAG, in 2018. Their second studio album, Fine Art, was released in 2024 and a biographical film was released later the same year. In January 2026, they announced their third studio album, Fenian, would be released the following April.
The group has been at the centre of public debates about free speech and the expression of political opinions within Ireland and the UK. Their themes focus on working class Belfast youth culture, Irish republicanism and Irish language rights. In concert, they have made statements supporting Palestinian nationalism and condemning the Gaza genocide. Their name is derived from the extralegal punishment attacks meted out by Northern Irish paramilitary groups.
