THAT I MAY SEE

So I have been working on my show for the last few months.
This body of work is based on my trip to Zambia, where I got to spend time with the mighty kids at Shitima School and also visit Makalulu, one of the larget ’slums’ in africa.

I’ll chat more about this show soon, what I do know is it starts on the 9th September and will be at Black Rat Projects (or Black Rat Press, I’m not sure what you guys are calling yourselves at the mo…..)
and the exhibition will have a percentage from all sales going back to the school which is kinda coolio and groovio.

BOY SOLDIERS

Coming up soon is this show organized by the dude Tristan Schoony.
He’s got a load of artist people to customize his boy soldier casts, including the supreme lord of head lining acts that is Goldie plus lots of other less worthy but reasonably talented bods
I think this could be a damn interesting show to behold
2nd of september is the start of the exhibition at the Blackall studios in shoreditch.

TONIGHTS DA NIGHT

Before Christine Agrimaleria or whatever her name is got to him, Redman was my favorite MC ever, I saw him in concert at the Brixton Fridge back in 93 and that was a hard ass show, a proper hip hop scenario.
I remember outside in the long line of people waiting to get in, bods getting mugged for there trainers and such..woooo it was kinda crazy, but we survived, mainly because me and my mates were really tough and street, although I had rarely been south of the river back then so I was actually plopping my pantalones.
But whatever the street politics back then, within the hip hop scene there was a proper vibe, a feeling of belonging to something special, something real, something that spoke for us.
I have no idea what your average 18 year old feels about the ‘rap’ music they listen too now days, I suppose the music that is made must reflect their attitudes, which is what scares me actually……but who who am I to say anything on the subject, I just wonder if the kids have the same intensity of emotion to the culture they exist within as us oldies did.

LONDON VS BRIGHTON VIDEO FEATURE THINGY

matt — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 20:24:42 +0000

The recent show where big bad muva luving London done battle with it’s snotty nosed little brother Brighton and gave it a couple of slaps, has had a little feature produced thats on youtube now…It’s one of those magazine type productions with a few different items, if you can be arseholed to watch, skip to the 3.00 minute point and look at the lovely blonde lady talk about the show with the equally lovely Zachy boy Walsh and there’s also a quick natter with raggedy old me too.

GRAFFITI MASTERCLASS WITH EDMUNDO CAVILL

matt — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 17:13:44 +0000

I used to be really, really crap at anything to do with spray can work, it just didn’t make sense to me, I used to wonder how the hell the graff dudes done all the little details. I’d give it a go and there would be drips and splatters everywhere and I’d have hissy fits and cry because I hate not being able to do things other people can do….muva loving toe rags…. So I would hate all graff type bods for their oh so special skills.
Then the man like Edmundo Cavill came in to my life and he gave me some spray can knowledge, I have learnt a few ting a lings since, but I can honestly say that spray can work ain’t my bag baby, but at least I can now use a can and achieve only minimal drips as apposed to the waterfalls I created before…..hurrah hurrah.
