British writer and journalist,\u00a0<\/span>Aniefok Ekpoudom<\/span>\u00a0is releasing his first book,\u00a0<\/span>Where We Come From: Rap, Home and Hope in Modern Britain<\/span><\/em>, and it’s set to be published in 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n

The book will explore Ekpoudom’s travels through South London, the West Midlands, South Wales, and more, encapsulating the story of UK rap; from its inception through to today, where the genre is blossoming more than ever. Additionally, Ekpoudom will tell the story of how migration and a spirit of resistance have shaped the music that the UK has produced.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fellow writer and critic, Candice Carty-Williams, describes the book as “a stunning exploration of a genre, a movement, and a world,” while Yomi Adegoke dubs it as a piece of “landmark work that will undoubtedly shape conversations about not just UK rap and grime, but British music for years to come.”<\/span><\/p>\n

In celebration of the release of\u00a0<\/span>Here We Come From: Rap, Home and Hope in Modern Britain<\/span><\/em>, Aniefok Ekpoudom will be discussing the book at the Queen Elizabeth Hall at the Southbank Centre, London, and will be joined by Candice Carty-Williams and chair Yomi \u1e62ode.<\/span><\/p>\n
