Where We Come from: Rap, Home and Hope in Modern Britain

This groundbreaking social history explores how migration and resistance have shaped the current realities of British rap and grime. From south London to the West Midlands and South Wales, Aniefiok Ekpoudom travels the country to paint a compelling portrait of the dawn, boom and blossoming of UK rap and grime.

Through his lyrical prose, Ekpoudom illuminates the lives of those who have found solace in these sounds and words. He reveals how underground genres are not only thriving but also becoming some of the most popular music in the nation.
