Maybe you've come across my work in The Guardian, Empire Magazine, British GQ, BBC News, Vice, TIME, The Telegraph, The Independent, The Times or Dazed. Either way – thanks for swinging by. This is usually the part where I tell you a bit about me, right?
I'm a London-based writer and editor specialising in music, film, TV and the arts. I'm also the third member of best-selling rap crew Run The Jewels, as this photo clearly proves (eurgh, alright, fine! I'm also a presenter, and that shot's taken from one of many live Q&As I've hosted across the UK).
I've worked as Editor-In-Chief of FACT Magazine, Deputy Digital Editor of NME and Staff Writer at Q in my 12 years as a journalist. In that time, I've swapped yoga tips with Björk, had coffee in Bologna with Francis Ford Coppola, nerded out with Kendrick Lamar, got lost in Colombia with Foals, received dating tips from Alicia Keys and questioned whether I'm a replicant while producing a documentary about Blade Runner. Tyler The Creator shot me in the leg with a paintball gun once, too. Yep, it's been a wild ride. Here are some cover features I've written:
I also have my own podcast, called Script Apart. Each week, an incredible screenwriter shares with me their first draft of a now-iconic movie. Since launching in June 2020, we’ve raised tens of thousands of pounds for great causes and welcomed some of the biggest names in cinema onto the show, from Lilly Wachowski and Richard Linklater to Aaron Sorkin, Edgar Wright and Sofia Coppola.
