One Fi Dem

On this week’s episode, we had the honour of bringing Damian of Made Black Studios into our realm. Do you think you’re a sneakerhead? How many pairs do you own? How much thought goes into your fit, and are you pulling off Roddy Rich “High Fashion” or not?

The fact of the matter is, Made Black Studios is at the top of their game when it comes to producing customs, including ones that even Lebron James had worn. Damian, the founder of Made Black came into our studio to talk about how the brand has reached the pinnacle of self-taught craftsmanship.

Building a brand, especially in the highly competitive and volatile streetwear market, is just no easy thing to do. From how to hone in on your creativity to how to make your brand known to the world, this episode is a deep dive into the process of what it really means to DO IT YOURSELF. In between our usual jokes, good vibes and songs of the week, some serious gems were dropped all over this episode.

This week, our guest is none other than Olympian Celia Quansah, who is currently competing in the postponed Tokyo Olympic Games. The GB Rugby Sevens and Wasps FC athlete tells us what the sport is all about and how she discovered her passion for the game. Celia is incredibly talented and has phenomenal strength, having competed in athletics at the national level until making the switch to rugby at university. But she has still had to train her butt off to get to where she is today.

Being a woman in rugby is not easy, they're not paid nearly as much as men. Celia breaks down the harsh realities for herself and fellow athletes juggling work around training and gameplay. And on top of that, there's the rife misogyny with people leaving trashy and belittling comments on social media. As part of the #icare campaign, Celia said: "I don’t play for your approval, I play for me and to inspire the young girls who do care and who have a dream like I do." Inspirational much? Most definitely!

Expect to hear our Ls, Ws, tweets and songs of the week, and get inspired by Celia's extraordinary journey (and this is just the beginning)! Come through for the usual banter and good vibes only.

In this episode, we talk photography and directing with Eazy Visuals, who really knows how to bring visions to life through his camera lens. Scrolling through images on Tumblr lit the spark that led him to develop his own projects. Eazy has now crafted a distinct style, leaving his own unique stamp in every shot. And we're talking range, from intimate shots of the female form to GRM Daily music videos, and shooting the likes of Tion Wayne, Micheal Ward, Solela Malila and Ovie Soko in the process. This creative is clearly in the midst of building a serious legacy.

That said, if we're keeping it 100, it was his crazy stories from shoots that had us really gasping! No spoilers but at one point, his life was literally on the line! Among the classic Ls, Ws, tweets and songs of the week, we break down what it takes to create your own lane as a photographer and director. Pull up for all jokes, vibes and usual antics with our very first special guest of season 2.

This week, our guest is demystifying the world of data, analytics and consulting. Sam is defo one of the funniest consultants around but it wasn't easy to get his job! From studying chemical engineering to interning at Google and now working at IBM, the oldest existing tech business in the world, he's jumped through all kinds of hoops. It's safe to say this former basketballer just loves a challenge, whether that's balancing his creative side with a 9-5 or getting through work video calls while his dad slurps up lunch in the background. Don't miss it, we've been brewing up the banter for this Season 1 Finale!!
