Stevio...LA LA Lovin' It?

I'm British-born Chinese from Bristol, UK. I’m LA-based. I’m a hip hop aficionado. After 15 years in London I moved to LA to pursue a new career and outlook on life.

Back in the 80s I was a DJ. In the 90s I contributed to the world's first street style exhibition at London's Victoria & Albert Museum. In 2011, I had my first interviews published. Today, I’m keeping busy with music, art, photos and writing.

Grandmaster Flash in front of 40,000 Bestival goers!

This interview was just published on Grandmaster Flash's YouTube channel. It was recorded just after he partied with the 40,000 Bestival goers on the main stage. BBC Radio 1 DJ Rob da Bank is behind this annual music festival and he invited Flash onto his show last year...in return Flash dropped 5 mixes for our listening pleasure! Go check out Flash's musical dexterity here.

Did you know? According to the video, Grandmaster Flash has won 30 international awards and plays up to 100 gigs a year?! I didn't.

I do know that he was enrolled into the Rock and Rock Hall of Fame in 2007! That is BIG. And it's even better that he and most of the Furious 5 were still alive to celebrate. RIP Cowboy.
