Two British outsiders found themselves in the middle of Hip Hop, just as it was exploding into a global force, capturing raw, unfiltered moments with legends like Ice Cube, Ice-T, the Wu-Tang Clan, and Snoop Dogg before they became household names. Discover how Martin Pearson and Deverill Weekes navigated wild photoshoots, uncovered hidden political commentary, and assembled their one-of-a-kind book from long ago archives.
If you love music, nostalgia, or back stories behind hip-hop’s biggest names, you’ll dig this conversation!
