Larry B is a British-Ghanaian DJ and producer who’s been tearing up south London for a few years now. His presence has graced dancefloors around the world – but as his recent 5 Sad Songs EP revealed, he’s also a talented singer-songwriter to boot. As he told us when we profiled him back in 2015, “In my school in South Norwood, all the boys were in the playground playing grime out of their phones. But I was never a ‘spitting bars’ person. I used to sing.”

James Massiah, the 27-year-old south London poet, producer and DJ – who last year featured on the Massive Attack single, Dear Friend – recently spoke at a 5x15 event (five creatives, each speaking for 15 minutes) alongside former Vogue editor-in-chief Alexandra Shulman. Taking inspiration from Talking Heads and James Brown – among others – charismatic creative Massiah has also read at the Southbank Centre, Tate Modern and the Houses of Parliament. He’s created a film walking the streets of Dalston and Brixton, tunefully rhyming archetypes with arty types during a poem on gentrification. Massiah writes poetry that is sometimes performed to music and shares his work through The A & The E, a philosophy and arts-based project he founded in 2012 when aged 22, fresh out of university in search of a space to share his poetry and thought.
