I’m really proud to announce the launch of my new podcast series, Brown Riot. This is a project I’ve been working on for a while, with a bunch of amazing guests and my friends at Smith & Western Sound. The theme is a subject that’s very close to my heart – diversity in the ad industry.
The chats are all really insightful and the guests are super articulate. I sound like a stuttering buffoon but that’s a small price to pay to get this out there. It’s a celebration of diversity, a clarion call for more of it and hopefully the inspiration for more debate and progress.
It’s already getting great traction globally. Clearly now is the right time to be having this conversation and for us all – whatever our skin colour – to be working together to move things forward.
The podcast is available at brownriot.com or via Apple Podcasts, Spotify or Audioboom.
Please listen, share and let me know what you think.
Thank you.

The greatest rapper of all time tells the story of the greatest band who ever lived. What’s not to love?

So beautiful. These amazing words reflecting on the truth and beauty that’s handed down from generation to generation. The Alan Watts-esque idea that we are all part of an ongoing line of life; all simply expressions of the one universe breathing in and then out again; all present in every wave rising and crashing, every baby being born and every person dying. Coupled with this spectacular video shot over the city of Pripyat in the Ukraine, very close to Chernobyl, which got evacuated a day after the disaster and has been left abandoned ever since. Gloriously uplifting melancholy.

Wow…just wow. What an amazing idea and how brilliantly executed. I think we can safely say Hornbach have set themselves apart from their competition in the DIY category…

How good is this?!
Can’t stop watching it.
I’m loving the Jamaican dancehall vibe across what – I think – is a meta lyrical theme about the boastfulness of MCs. (I can’t get the lines “fling a ragga ridim like it’s 03” out of my head).
The super-entertaining video, by Henry Scholfield, is brilliant fun, and handles the MC baton changes so slickly and cleverly.
And could Idris Elba be any cooler? Love his toasting (and long red coat) on this.
The whole thing feels proper London.

This is such an amazing film about creativity and what it means to be truly creative.
Massively inspiring in that it shows how talent, determination, self-belief and hard work took a working class kid all the way from the streets of East London to the top of the fashion world.
Stunning in its coverage of his incredible, mind-blowing art – I came away thinking he’s massively under-rated.
And a heart-breaking treatise on the life sentence that abuse condemns its victims to and the tragic insecurity/loneliness that can come with such a singular talent.
If you’re interested in creativity…MASSIVE RECOMMEND.
