Voices in My Head is the debut studio album by English rapper Dot Rotten, released through Mercury Records on 6 May 2013. Production was primarily handled by Dot himself and TMS, however Naughty Boy and True Tiger were among contributors. The album also spawned four singles; "Keep It on a Low", "Are You Not Entertained?", "Overload" and "Karmageddon". The album peaked at number 146 on the UK Albums Chart.
In 2011, Dot Rotten was one of many artists selected to feature on the official 2011 Children in Need single, Teardrop, produced by Gary Barlow and Labrinth, which peaked at number 24 on the UK Singles Chart and number 7 on the UK R&B Singles Chart. A day after the single was released, Dot released his own debut single, Keep It on a Low. This hard work led Dot to be nominated for the BBCs Sound of 2012 along with 14 other artists, including A$AP Rocky and Azealia Banks, a poll that is aimed to promote upcoming artists. Despite not winning the poll, Dot was quick to release his next single, Are You Not Entertained? in March. He then released Overload in the summer of 2012, which is his most successful single to date, and Karmageddon in late 2012.
