Kamal.

Name, where are you from?

Kamal. from Harleseden, North West London.

Describe your style in three words?

My dress sense is comfy and clean.

What’s the best gig you’ve ever been to?

The best gig I’ve been to was Slowthai in Brixton. I got knocked over twice in that mosh pit.

If you could be on the line up with any two artists in history?

Frank Ocean and Prince, but I’ve got a long way to go and grow to rub shoulders with those names.

Which subcultures have influenced you?

I’ve been influenced by indie and grime a lot, but I subtly adopt aspects into my own work.

If you could spend an hour with anyone from history?

It would probably be my great-grandmother Pearl Prescod. She was by all accounts a very talented, intelligent woman, who had an admirable passion for change.

Of all the venues you’ve been to or played, which is your favourite?

Village Underground. The energy was tangible and there’s something about the brick walls and high ceiling that create a sense of grandeur.

Your greatest unsung hero or heroine in music?

King Krule. I think he both had and has the potential to reach millions more with his music, and some of his projects are genius.
