For the Eagle eyed, yes, this was on the same day as my Blues100 show @ The Jazz Café.
This was at the Truman Brewery, right in the heart of legendary Brick Lane. And man, was it an interesting event.
Put simply, it was an event dedicated to "Top Boy", the same day as it's premiere. The whole thing was drenched in the 2000s aesthetic and featured workshops & panels with people involved in "Top Boy" in some capacity.
The space was very airy so on the walls were quotes from the show. A nice touch.
These 3x3 photos from UK 00s culture where also scattered about. Some were from the show, some were straight aestethic link.
Shouts to Jasmine Jobson who, after seeing S2, was the MVP of that season.
Snake & Snake 2 are goated.
Love this photo of D Double E.
Young Kano was a beast. But then again, older Kano is a beast so…
Shouts to Ed & Femi
MVP Jasmine Jobson & Saffron Hocking
Little Simz, Araloyin Oshunremi & Micheal Ward
Shouts to Tyrone Rashard (W/ Mic) who actually is one of two people not named Ronan Bennett (The creator of “Top Boy”) to write on the show. Also big ups Lavinya Stennett (2nd from left) who helms The Black Curriculum.
