Kojey Radical is my fourth guest on A Way From Home.
London-born multi-disciplined musician Kojey and I spent an hour or two chatting and listening to music in East London in December 2016.
We talked about identity, London, creativity and rejecting hip hop history, and about political consciousness, cross-cultural controversy, Saul Williams and Scrubs.
We shared a lot of different music, though it might make for a better listen if you don’t know what’s coming next.
Our conversation begins with Kojey telling me about his worst ever show, in Oxford.
