3:07:34Mr.Zonk, the All City Diabolical Dubstar came over for an amazing an open and honest chat about his experiences of growing up in London and finding culture, the graffiti culture and how it moulded him to the man he is today and what a journey he had along the route. We are the same age, met in our teen years at his home in Cricklewood, just up the road from Kilburn, my manor and even though is was the mid nineties his name preceded him, in a big way even back then.. We’ve hung out, crossed paths and painted over the last nearly 30yrs but I’ve never had the pleasure of just a firm one on one conversation and it was epic.. Mr.Zonk is a true gent of the culture, a true King, and one that loves the culture so deeply it runs through his veins like fibbing’s and a home-made pen. An absolute pleasure having him come visit, this is Mr.Zonk’s London, Culture and Creativity story.. This is F24, enjoy.…

1:17:24Hello and welcome back to the F24 podcast, my name is David and as often as possible I have a creative come over to my studio in North Acton to have a chat about their life and interactions with their city, culture and creativity. Hope you are all enjoying the new recordings I’ve been doing, you probably get the vibe of how much I love my culture and making this archive of interviews that I hope are looked into in the future as a reference for this time makes me proud, we’re having some great conversations here.. Imma keep em coming. So this week I had the pleasure of meeting Roger Gastman, the man behind the Beyond the Streets exhibition which toured the US and is now over here at Saatchi gallery from the 17th Feb, quite a ground breaking show to be seen in our city. The show he’s put together is the amalgamation of his time and experiences and education within the graffiti culture and the broad depths its shown him, and that’s perfect for an inquisitive person like me, right up my street. I’ve known of and probably you’ve known of Roger from the books he’s made, shows he’s put on, films he’s made, magazines, interviews and various curations his name has been beside for the last 20+years, a real inspiring body of work on a part of the culture that is really what I have tried to be about for the last 20yrs also, and he’s done it big, representing at a very high professional level, this was going to be an education. I got the hook up on email through another culture stalwart, the author and artist Caleb Neilson whom, I helped a little last year on a project he was putting together with Roger. I knew Roger was in town for the show, I hollered, and he kindly accepted. I met him at the set up at Saatchi’s in a room full of people I’ve seen in photos and film and read about, quite a privilege, and we then took a walk to his Airbnb to sit down and have this conversation, this is some of Roger Gastmans, Bethesda Maryland Washington, culture and creativity story, enjoy, this is F24.…

2:29:30What a mad time hey, worlds changed, places have changed, we’ve changed! But what stays is culture, a constant, a forever, and I learnt a lot about that and its strengths, even though I preach it, from this conversation, so it was a great one to kick off what we’ll call season 2 of F24. Mode2 was in town. We’d be talking a little via message for a while and also had my friend Kash co-signed me which got me a big step closer to this conversation. A dream come true, after the first, where he put me up at Carnival this year after I set him some paint. I’d never properly met Mode, never had the chance to have a conversation.. He’s been a name in my life for nearly 30yrs and undoubtably yours too.. I haven’t heard many interviews with him so I didn’t know how this was going to go.. Some of you maybe used to a format I’ve developed in these interviews, this was nothing like I expected, its an amazing in-depth conversation full of analogies and historical fact about culture and cultures. He lives a life full of intrigue and interest, a natural flow, an understanding of his surroundings as well as his foundations. An absolute pleasure and dream come true having this time with Mode, our mutual friend Kash was in the studio with us while we had this very interesting conversation, this is some of Mode2’s culture and creativity story… enjoy..…

I met him back 2006 when he was on his second European Tour and passed by Brighton where my shop was to paint at the Sleeping Giants Graf jam. We were in awe, he came along with German King Can2 and the Montana Team and met MSK’s Revok and Rime where they nurtured their lifelong friendship. Askew has been pushing style for years now, especially the last decade and to have a couple hours with him explaining his how he found the culture, what pushed and helped him assert himself to make NZ a country worth high regard for Graffiti and how it gave him the confidence to keep it going and become the artist he is today.. a real amazing convo, go check in insta whist you listen @askewone this is some of Askews, Auckland, culture and creativity story.. this is F24..…
Hello and welcome back to the F24podcast my name is David and as often as possible I sit down with a creative at my studio in North Acton to talk about their lives and interactions with where they are from, culture and creativity. But like most of you, I’m in lockdown on my narrow boat on the canal, I’m just west of the city limits and I’ve set up a little studio space outside under a tree next to my woodpile producing small paintings and sculptures. The effect of this worldwide lockdown is having quite an effect on me, but as any listeners will know what I love about creativity and its therapeutic assets.. I’ve been putting them to use and I hope you have too and are all well and bearing up with this madness, we’ll have it figured soon. In the meantime, I’ve been on skype chatting to creatives and getting these interviews done and this week I have Diego Bergia. Diego is from Toronto and his work caught my eye a couple years ago when I saw a 90’s style videogame online with Revok, Giant and Ces doing tags and extinguisher hits whilst shooting robots.. it blew my mind.. I did a little stalking and found out he wrote graffiti and thought, that’s my ish.. As I ain't seeing people face to face I thought I’d holla Diego and get some history this and I’m glad I did because there was a dope surprise halfway through when we got onto a wheat paste period he was in.. check him @diego_bergia on Instagram whilst you listen.

1:43:41Hello and welcome back to the. F24 podcast.. my name is David and in what were normal times, I invited creatives over to my studio in north Acton to have a conversation about their lives and interactions with London, culture and creativity. But we are what, 5 weeks into this worldwide lockdown.. the maddest time of most of our lives so I’m at home like the rest of you so decided to make this thing worldwide. I hope you’re all safe and well, the numbers we are seeing daily are crazy, quiet overwhelming but one thing for sure is that we’ve shown how much we can do for each other not what they can do for us. We’ve stood up and looked out for each other and helped where possible.. That’s love, on a massive scale.. that’s gonna do some dope stuff for us in the future, let’s keep it up. This week, well last week I had this conversation with New Zealand graffiti stalwart Vents from RTR crew Auckland. We had a dope chat, me kinda chatting into the future as he’s 13hrs ahead. We cover loads, what it was like where he grew up, what the kind of graffiti he saw growing up and his first feelings of notoriety when he placed his first words on a wall and drawings on an arcade game. We talk about his route into painting, when the right time arose and the commitment he put to it. He tells us about some NZ history, the crews and paintings that were about, the name he started with, travelling and a story about London’s very own @meanpfb. It was a dope chat, a privilege.

I can’t deny I miss my studio loads and am worried about my business, but these things are out of my hands for now so for now it’s the mantra, this too shall pass… Given this time along with the rest of the world I’ve decided to push this podcast worldwide, everyone’s home so catch em now and have that conversation.. this week, not too far away, Elph from Edinburgh.

As he was walking off, I nudged Vibes who was hanging out as usual and said a bit too loud, You V, that’s King Fuel.. I felt a little embarrassed as I think he heard, but I didn’t care, he’d graced my shop. A couple months ago I had the pleasure of going South of the River to have a coffee with King Fuel, who for as long as I’ve been in the scene has had his name come along with folklore, rumour and legend. We chatted over a few coffees for hours without noticing the time go by. We spoke about loads of stuff, the culture, London, parenthood, mind and soul, therapy music, smoking, adventures.. a whole bag of goodness, it was amazing, mind blowing and an absolute treat.. I had to ask him, come over to North Acton and jump on the podcast, he agreed. We left it a bit of time so that conversation wasn’t fresh in our minds and he came around on a Monday after lunch, I bunked work silenced my computers and phone, its King Fuel for fucksake.. and we chatted for another 3hours, it’s an amazing story, a deep journey hearing about Fuels life so far and his choices, experiences, memories and thoughts, and feelings about our culture, its meanings, reasons, everything, it was amazing.. and yes, I say amazing and wow about 50 times, sorry, but I mean it.. A massive privilege having King Fuel over, this isn’t his whole story, the timelines not perfect but it’s over 30yrs of being Fuel. What an honour.

We’ve painted, drunk, smoked, looked after each others friends with space to stay and also now both do a podcast about these creative lives we are living. Tom travels, like serious adventure travelling. Its been him and his wife's thing since meeting 20+ years ago. He’s from and based in Melbourne Australia and Tom gets us into that and tells us what it was like growing up there the 80’s and 90’s, a bit unconventional and quite dangerous for a 16yr old. He tells us what school was like, skating and his first graffiti experiences, friends and how those teen years went. We chat about the chance encounter with his to be wife, travelling the world and painting and the different paths he took until he gave in to the pressure and stepped up and went full time artist.

1:44:32Welcome back to the F24 Podcast, my name is David every couple weeks I go and sit with a creative either at my studio on theirs to chat about their lives and interactions with London Culture and Creativity. This is the 50th Episode! yes.. I’ve done 50 of these recordings.. I’ve been building an archive on the culture coming out of our city and country, getting stories from people’s experiences, thoughts and adventures and what a journey we’ve been on. I’ll be eternally grateful for everyone’s honesty and frankness about their experiences, the graffiti writer in me has fully geeked out on some of the insight we’ve been given and the wonderer in me gets to know why and how they became them. So happy I made this project come to life, it’s made me think about the other things I’ve made happen over the years, I got to say I’m proud.. Because at times like all of us I aint got a clue what where or when, thinking about what’s next, how so sort that.. we get bogged down and before you know it one problem becomes two. But a couple hours later, I’ve looked back at my achievements and they give me the strength to deal with the issue. I’ve done lots, yes, but it’s the all from the first achievement, whether that was sticking up for yourself and fighting, getting some dope tags in your manor, getting them grades in school, these are all things to be built from. I’ve hit some milestones this year, my 39th. Ones I thought were not possible or not going to happen, I did it.. It put a bit of pressure on next year but as I say.. take a minute, look back for sec, see the math and step forward. Step by step.. and you know what it seems like this guy did just that, the achievements he has hit in his life are one of rare occurrence. I’ve known him for nearly 20yrs.. He's been a creative force since I met him and he also mentioned my son in a couple tracks he was on when he rapped which made him invincible to me, another Norf Londoner, Actor Ed Skrien. Ed and I, we chat every so often on the phone, real great in-depth conversations that I truly look forward to and thoroughly enjoy so getting these 2 hours face to face was amazing with my brother was great. It’s been a minute. We get into loads of his history in London and specifically the influence of Camden, his unorthodox introduction to Hip Hop and how that passion grew through school years and his choices over the rest of his education. We chat about the great impact growing up in a multicultural city is like, meeting like-minded people and how Ed put his hand to many creative projects but always stayed himself. I have some great memories of the times him and the crew spent at the shop in Brighton. He’s achieved great things for him and his family and also for the culture has from, it’s been amazing watching his come up, his music, energy on the mic and now acting in major roles around the world.. Big up Ed this is some of his story // enjoy this is F24. Make sure you check the the recording out right till the end.. a dope throwback for you all.…

2:06:34This week, well another honour.. this guy’s throw up was in my manor of Kilburn and Edgeware Rd ever since I could read graffiti, and that was from young.. And when I started writing in 95 the, from what I thought was an SM throw up was amazing, unique, one-line greatness executed the same every time I studied it.. Knowing it had been in my vision since the 80’s, but you don’t really study then, its later on when you yourself paint, I knew to look at these tags / throws and really see the excellence and mastery of a tool and form of hieroglyph. It was that and Up’s throw ups that I really loved as a kid.. and did so for many years.. It was only in the mid two thousand I found out the SM throw up was Eine! It wasn’t an S with a M on top, it was Eine’s… I first met him outside Petros Paint Store in Brighton in 2000-2001 he put up a sticker with EINE in block letters repeated at 45 degrees, black on pink. I knew of him as a train painter, killer full colour wholecars.. I was obviously chuffed to meet him, but I wonder how much I would have geeked out had I known he was the throw up also. Watching what Eine did in the following years was crazy.. I think we all thought that. His transition into Art, street art wasn’t even a term then, doing things that we hadn’t seen done before, a name associated and placed in rooms and galleries that London writers hadn’t reached yet.. We get to hear about all of that, Ben brings us back to London in the 80’s and tells us about his early years and meeting like-minded others.. We talk about traveling, clubbing, train parties, painting and the beginning of his road into alphabet paintings on shutters, meeting Banksy and starting Pictures on Walls and everything that came after it, from learning to print on the job to having a painting given to President Obama.. Another great chat.. what a lucky guy I am… I visited Ben at his studio in South London and we talked whilst he painted a canvas.. it was dope.. I recorded it for you as always..

3:15:49Well this recording came off the back of a really nice phone call I received earlier this year.. I first met Insa in early 2004, he had a show in Brighton and visited the gallery with from what I remember Anie, our shared acquaintance.. That year has turned out to be a very important year for Insa, wasn’t too bad for me either actually, but in 2004 Insa stated to paint his iconic heels.. 15 years ago.. geesuss that felt fast! So, the reason for the call, Insa Studios were making a film about 15 years of the heels and they wanted me to interview Insa on it and do a little voice over…Check me out! Insa’s all was lovely, we chat maybe yearly by bi yearly, a few coffees over the years, couple of business explorations and he’d been listening to the podcast and thought I was the guy for the job.. We agreed to him doing the podcast also and I got on a main line train outta St Pancras on a sunny Thursday morning down to the south coast to visit Insa at his studio and get these recordings done. What a space! Amazing, the first things I see are 2 Japanese custom vans, one of them a gorgeous mint green / teal like with a slight diamond dust filtering the colour ever so slightly. Then over to some old used, battered, paint splattered large wooden doors which open into his space, the perfect space, high celling, open plan with a couple of metal pillars holding the floor above. There’s a work bench, 2 paint racks, a boat, a water ski thing, paintings, signs, toys, books, sofas, a fridge, filled with Insa branded beer.. There’s an office set to the left of the space, it was an office, but the walls were covered with paintings, parts of installations, his Chris Offlie High heels, gundam robots, mad toys.. We went upstairs, where he stores most of his collection of pieces, one of each piece of clothing he has put out, shoes, trainers, heels, magazines, lighters! He collects lighters.. and finally, a photoshoot room.. it is an amazing space; one you dream of.. especially for a graffiti writer, it was a full museum telling Insa’s story all in one space.. and I was about to get the words to go along with it.. We go in with Insa, I wasn’t expecting this depth of conversation, but I shouldn’t have been surprised, standing in his studio, seeing all these achievements over the years.. of course, it was gonna be full on.. We start with his early years, family, where he grew up, school life, his interests in those early years and the run up to him moving to London. So much happened there from teaming up with some of South London s finest, iconic trackside paintings and his trip to HMP Brixton. Insa goes into depth about the experience, thoughts and his change of attitude during that spell and then how the following years panned out. We talk about his family life, adventures with his partner Ethel, being a dad, traveling the globe and setting world records and producing work in the most unlikely situations for the strangest of clients. It’s a long conversation, inspiring at many stages, rammed packed end to end with an amazing human story.. Big up Insa for having me over, a real privilege to chat to such an iconic artist, especially after all the years I’ve watched.. Go check him @insagram whilst you listen.. it’s a great one.. and its his Birthday! go holla!…

2:22:24Hello and welcome back to the F24 podcast… my name is David and as often as possible I have a creative come over to my studio in North Acton to talk about their lives and interactions with London, or wherever they are from.. culture and creativity.. Doing this.. well it’s amazing for one.. being so honest and talking openly really often is a dope feeling. a bit scary at time but goddam it makes you think. I know it’s strange for the interviewee also. when do we get 90mins + to talk about our journeys so far in everyday life. we’re working, living life, dealing with bills, trying to paint, spend time with loved ones. we ain't got the time to talk like this. I love it. and well because I love it so much. I got myself a Zoom 5 recorder. plug in two lapel mics and I can record anywhere. I’m getting these stories people. so, I got on a train and went to my second favourite city in the UK and my ex home for 9 years. Brighton to check in on my Big Homie Nick and borrow his amazing gallery / studio / recording spot in Hove called Place to sit down with Brighton resident but Hull native with other places in-between. Graffiti Writer, Artist and Illustrator Pinky… You remember them PINK blockbusters from the early nineties. the old school wildstyles, the colours and also being from the South of the country and especially the arrogant swagger of a Londoner {me} yet with absolute bewilderment and awe at the styles coming out from the North and when your 16 in zone 2 London, Kilburn and you hear of place called Hull and see pieces from crews like DRA.. you get to realise the depth of the culture you became part of. This is that no borders stuff. our stuff transcends. I have been wanting to meet Pinky since then and I got the chance maybe 17 years later when one of clients in Brighton needed something and I thought you need Pinky.. It was dope to holla at the King and commission work from him, and since then we have been in contact and chatted on various occasions about various subjects. I knew this would be amazing. Pinky brings us back to Hull in the 80’s and gives and tells us about his first sights on paintings in the streets and his first paintings. what Hull was like growing up and being a writer there and his thoughts on leaving his home town and moving south. We talk about how he supported himself though work and commissions, his experience putting on his first gallery show and how travelling abroad clicked and gave him the conviction of thought to call himself an artist. His work is great. pyschedelic, bright, dope use of colour that gives off great vibes. got check him @thepinkyvisioin on Instagram whilst you listen.. Enjoy this is f24..…

3:21:43This week Marcus Barnes, an author, music journalist and graffiti artist. His graffiti name has been in my vision for about 15 years now, a prolific train painter from South London. We met a couple times over the years but never properly and having him come round here was dope. The last time we spoke was at Aset’s funeral and I talk about it towards the end of the podcast, that conversation made me really want to know more about him and I’ve so grateful he came round and shared his story with us. Another dope insight to a creatives life and path so far. We get through loads from his really interesting upbringing full of inspirational people, finding graffiti and the moral grounds he had to explore in order to do it, his working life and experiences with Lad Mags to the Daily Mail and his massive passion for music. We also chat about the pointless and yet extensive court case brought upon him by Colin Saycell and BTP for his publication of his magazine Keep the Faith. He travelled the city, painted trains with some of the best and now writes beautifully about music for MixMag. It’s a dope chat, I loved it.. I’ll tell you more about him at the end of the podcast, for now check him out @mgoldenbarnes on Instagram whist you listen. Enjoy.. This is f24.…

I had a great time, dope team and beautiful city.. I loved it, my mums from there also, so some roots were felt. Whilst I was there, I recorded this, I wanted to record more but we were putting in 16hr days but I did get this, a chat with two legends, one from just outside Dublin, Rask and one from Belfast, Moves. This was dope, it came together as King Rask knew I was in town working and hollered about painting on the one day I had off so I ended up doing a wall in town with Moves who painted the word Toar, he dropped me a couple colours and we schemed pieces and backgrounded the wall. We had some amazing convo whilst painting and when we were done we went back to my airnbnb and recorded a very interesting conversation about their come ups in the graffiti culture, its effect on what was going on in Ireland and Northern Ireland in everyday life, religion and society and how being part of this culture forged relationships larger than their surroundings. A real privilege getting this time with these Kings of the culture.. I loved it.. Enjoy.…

We’ve crossed paths, seen each other about and when I saw him at Teach’s show in December I hollered straight away and we worked it out. We have a bit of a different chat this week, for the hour or so there is a lot about current affairs, thoughts on issues, flat earth and community. Mys tells us his experience with Iowaska and we compare with therapy which I love and eventually we get his story and hid first interactions within the UK music scene, near death experiences, MCing to Jungle and Hip Hop, making music, touring the world and his time with Lowlife. We also chat about his music in length, the words he speaks and the messages he pushes through on his different releases and genres.

I've known T for many years, we met through a shared acquaintance when I opened my shop in 2003 and over the years we've got to know each other quiet well but not as much as the last few months. We've been hanging out loads and getting to know each other properly. I didn't want to be greedy with that privilege, so it took a while, but I got him behind a mic. And what a chat we have. The lives of writers hey! Who'da thought it.. they end up everywhere. I have an amazing chat with T about growing up in West London, his full-on home life, pressure in school and his reasons to start writing. He tells us an amazing story about his first train mission and how he moved on through the scene. We go into his further education, travels, the meanings of writing and everything in-between.

I hope your all well and enjoyed the Candie Bandita episode.. I loved it.. This week we've got Skore GSD TRC.. A UK OG, he's pretty much been there from the beginning of the graffiti culture in the UK but not coming out of London, but Paddock Wood in Kent he's had an intense and interesting relationship with the culture. We go through all the decades graffiti has been in the UK as Skore has been at this since 84, with no breaks. Graffiti is his life, it's him, literally. He obviously did the work and house, real life stuff on route and we'll hear about and how he juggled it, but the thing I find most fascinating and this is the same with other writers from the first generation, is that they still paint and it still means as much to them with the bonus's that build up of added value by being part of a culture for many years, the relaxing nature of the action, the feeling of contentment in a world that makes us think otherwise, the therapy of art and culture, the aiding of everyday life.. Skore is a graffiti don, he's done it all and witnessed a hell of a lot more. Amazing to have him round, got check him out on @skoretrc where you will find so so much goodness, check it while you listen... Enjoy!…

1:28:22We’re going to have a bit of a different one this week, I started working on this podcast idea about 2 years ago, I love podcasts and I love my culture, I know most of you know that and we have so many people with the best of stories so I got it together and recorded some, Jack Murray, Will Robson Scott, Any Gillman, Done London and Jamal Peace, they are the early ones in the series but it took me pretty much a year before I put them out. Anxiety, confidence and making my business and work more important than feeding my soul all came into play and I couldn’t justify spending all the time it’d take to do this. I stored the recordings. Then Jan passed away in late December 2017. I’d known him since the 90’s, properly. It hit hard. The funeral was a few weeks later and I went with my friend and fellow NW6er Sam. It was great to see all these people come to pay respects to Jan. A tearful and yet joyous event full of stories, memories, laughs and tears. He touched a crazy amount of people, we walked his coffin down Kilburn High Rd. and locked it off there was so many of us. A beautiful but sad day. Pretty soon after the funeral, I decided I was going to do these interviews and get this podcast going and I did. I had wanted Jan round to chat, I should have had him round in 2017, but life is what it is and at the time I wasn’t sure I was going to do the podcast at all. Him going let me know I needed to do this, he did everything he put his mind too and so I was going to do the same. About 2 -3 weeks after the funeral I had around that time, heard the final Combat Jack podcast, one I’d been listening to for 7 odd years, Combat had passed from Cancer and Dallas Penn, A King, Premium Pete, Just Blaze, Ben Haeremeen, and a couple other of his colleagues and friends got together to talk about Combat, his accomplishments, his life and work, I thought that’d be great for Jan, bringing us to this week which is a special episode as we have a glimpse into Jan’s life through one of his best mates, his crew partner, his travelling companion, festival goer and party starter, Jack. We recorded it early July and it was tough, especially on Jack but we told stories, had laughs and remembered our friend. This is some of Jan’s London, Culture and Creativity story.

2:48:42This week, I can say I have one of my closet friends at the Studio. To me and many, he's an inspiration, a cultural icon, a style king and also a great dad. It's been a minute since we had our last weekly coffee on upper St. in Angel and actually our last one was in Kentish Town on the strip and it was times like those that really built our relationship it took our conversation to another level and we bonded with our similarities, estate life, young dads and the finding of culture and it's growth into a creative life. As the years have passed and life cracks on and asks more of your day we don't grab as many coffees as we used too but we've always been in contact in some way even though he doesn't have a phone! This is one half of the legendary TaskForce, the Highbury Estate veteran and to me an oracle of life in the North East of our city, Farma G!. He has experienced loads, put himself through a bag load of actions and activities and this was all before he finished school. It was so dope having him round, we chat about loads of things whilst we catch the story of his come up, from copping 7inch records in the local newsagent, to his various hustles on Upper St and also him and his peers concerted effort to get on a mic by any means necessary and let heads know.. We go from life in the manor, his interest in music and introduction to graffiti, to meeting Intense in his first year at secondary and setting up The Bury Crew. We chat about the meeting of Mark B and Taskforces first EP and then the Lowlife years all the way through to his new projects with a load of his thoughts and processes in-between. Another dope point to make about this interview there was another legend from the city and a friend of mine in the studio, TEACH DDS happened to be visiting, stayed for the chat and added a couple of amazing points and reminders for Farma which added to the convo, big up King Teach. Farma is a brother from another manor, a guide from the other side and a friend to very end.. we have an amazing conversation, two friends talking, and we go deep, Big up Farms...

I presumed Joe was classically trained, I presumed he got to this stage of his art carrear through conventional ways. His paintings, his subjects, his intrigue in different artistic mediums, his concepts. but no, we need to watch our perceptions. I was wrong, this was great having Joe round to the studio and filling us in on his journey.

This week’s conversation is with Richard Wilson. You may have seen the worldwide press about Rich’s Will Smith painting that he did in West Philly, an amazing and extremely impressive full body 65ft painting of the Fresh Prince sitting on a chair on the side of a building that sits in a school playground. It is full of references, to the Jordan’s he’s wearing to the t-shirt and cap hanging off the back of the chair and then the chair itself and the leaves wrapped around it’s legs which is homage to his favourite artist and his paintings. An incredible feat from the Londoner, we’ll hear about that whole project, its inception and the work he put into it to make it happen along with where Rich is from, one of the reasons I asked him over, a painting in Acton and what it said to me. The power of art and what led him to it and what it does for him and a great honest chat about the mental health aspect of life and the help that art brings. We get in to loads more also, his experiences within the scene and his love for music. It was great having Rich over, amazing to meet him. You catch us in a side conversation which led onto chatting about Richs first influences in the culture, how he feels about it and what it was giving him in those early years, then we jump in properly to the podcast. This is his London, Culture and Creativity story enjoy.…

1:50:39This week’s interview is with Luis Lopez Smith, you may have heard about his company Tottenham Textiles an amazing walk in studio on Seven Sisters. I met Luis when I was visiting my mate Jonny Banger, his shop is next door to Luis’. Jonny being the gent he is and knowing how much I ‘d love to see the space, I met Luis. I was completely amazed! What a space, loads of machinery, screen beds, exposure units, carousels, work benches, an amazing ceiling and two beautiful little saffys! The work he produces with his colleagues in that space is unique, beautifully designed and manufactured and inspiring. I didn’t know much about Luis and Tottenham Textiles other than my visit to the space and seeing his fly pieces on their Instagram @tottenhamtextiles. Luis has had a great journey so far and we talk about his education and time at the Royal College where he got his BA in Men’s Fashion, working for different brands and also teaching at university level, eventually getting to Tottenham Textiles. I’m always hearing great things from shared friends, it was a pleasure to meet him properly and get his story, one of his mantras, Do Teach Learn Repeat. Amazing. Enjoy!…

2:03:57So this week, another one from my extended cultural family is London’s one and only, Theo Keating otherwise known as the infamous Fake Blood and UK Graffiti’s very own Snatch CWS/ PFB/TO… This guy, since ive been in the culture, this guy’s pieces have been it for me.. I might be looking and reminiscing at the past with glazed eyes but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a bad piece by this guy.. All fire, all the time.. My favourites must include the '93 Unity Jam piece in Fulham, crazy cool and fresh and would stand up today easily, 25 yrs on and you hear us chat about that painting and more but apart from just getting my graffiti drenched brain more fodder another reason I got Theo round was to hear about how he got into music and what lead him to make a career out of it and one with so much adventure too! We talk loads about music and all types from Nicky Blackmarket and his influence in Jungle music to Acid House and making his own music also Really great him coming over and getting to hear about his journey. The music in the background, each piece you’ll hear are by Theo which he has happily graced us with!…

I found TY's music early on in moving to Brighton, I was in HMV on western rd. with my best mate Nick and we heard some amazing sounds over the stores speakers, I asked what it was and copped the vinyl straight away. It became one of the larger parts of the soundtrack for that time in my life and it was also one of the first UK Hip Hop albums I bought a culture that would become incredibly important to me over the following years, not a bad intro huh Amazing to have him round, a real pleasure.

2:20:59This weeks chat is with Jimi from GANG Studio. I’ve known Jimi for years, a lot of you have also. We met in the early 2000’s through our shared good friend and Brighton stalwart Jode. When I met him he was already thoroughly on his journey with creativity, I remember a time I was getting interviewed for a magazine, they were doing a piece on my shop, we’d just started working with Jimi and the interviewer suggested we were taking him under our wing, which may have been the perception but not the reality, my friend replied by saying, Jimi’s too big to fit under our wings, meaning he was already a creative force to be reckoned with, with an unrivalled skill set and vision. He had the spirit, the energy and the belief that he just could do, and do he would. He’s produced loads of great work which we’ll hear about but tell you what though, it was really interesting him explaining that belief in himself and its root and how that behaviour, attitude, the ‘I’ll have a go’ approach to things wasn’t all it cracked up to be. Not in an overly negative way, just the amount of pressure it puts you. We had an amazing chat, Jimi has achieved a whole lot since putting himself out there as an artist and creative and we talk about all of that and how he see’s himself and how his he is creative now after all these experiences. This is his story about London, culture and creativity.. Enjoy! This is F24.…

2:04:50This week we have Jonny Banger, or as some of you may know him, Sports Banger. I've known Jonny for years, since my days in Brighton. When I met him he was a DJing round the city at various events and he actually ended up, along with his good friend Daps holding down the decks at the open mics I used to put on at my shop every weekend or so. I saw the start of his first brand which was hilarious as it was very unexpected and took the UK hip hop scene by storm, there was a real clear wave of resonation, understanding and simplicity that came from that first Tshirt, it was perfect for the scene and the public gave back the same energy, Jonny is that guy. He understands, he gets it and quite clearly too. This was dope, getting to fill in the gaps, talk about old times and hear about his journey so far, also getting a glimpse into what Sports Banger is about and, well you must know me by now, the story hunter, I loved it.

1:16:55This weeks creative is Mark Sinckler, London Graffiti’s very own PRIME. Mark is an integral to the path I chose. When I first met him I was 16/17 years old, 1996/7. I was working in a dead end job selling advertising space in an Arabic Newspaper based in West Hampstead. I don’t think I sold one advert but what I did manage to do was to persuade the editor to let me write a piece and interview Mark about his paintings at the time where he was using Arabic text in his murals. It was a blag, I hadn’t written anything other than a tag since leaving school but idea was going to get me to meet a London Don! I’d only been writing graffiti for about 2 years but even then I loved learning about the culture I was getting deeper into and after seeing Primes pieces in graphotism and seeing his a tag of his that stayed for years on one of the tunnel entrances at Farringdon I knew I had to meet this man.. I did, we met in a café on Kilburn High Rd late one mid week night and he was a gent. I wasn’t sure if he knew how old I was or how professional I may have been but he gave me his time and helped me write this piece on his work and they published it, unfourtunalty they didn’t credit me but we know the story and that’s what counts. This conversation and the friendship that blossomed was like getting an enclyclopedia on the culture from one of the top players. One day he brought me to Elk’s house! my mind was blown as Elk had been in my sights since before writing. These interactions with the culture really helped seal my love and dedication to the culture. I had fallen for Hip Hop by say 91/92, really in by 93 but writing came a little later. Kilburn, my estate and the surrounding estates had a lot on offer for someone who’s looking to make a name for himself.. I tried a few things out over the years but Graffiti was the real calling and meeting Mark then, so early on was the inspiration I needed to really get in and live it with direction.…
