Ep.207 - "We Put Ourselves First" W/ Apex Zero

This is one of the longest interviews I have done and for good reason. A week & change before this recording, Apex Zero was in the centre of an amazing proof of concept day of exhibition & immersive performance with "Drummer Warrior Storyteller", a multi-format project that was five years in the making and is only the beginning.I was invited to the day of note at Rich Mix in the heart of Shoreditch to look at the exhibition which featured photography, painting, visuals, fashion & even blacksmithing that provided a prelude for a performance that contained rap/spoken word, dance, ritual and drumming.With all that said, I spoke to Apex Zero about all of the above; but also his beginnings, his battles, travels, past projects and - of course - his Top 5.AND, for the second time, this will drop with my own photography which you can peep here. Be sure to spin the short film "Drummer Warrior Storyteller" which also dropped today & the EP which you can find here.Rate & ReviewE-Mail: [email protected]: @The5thElementUKWebsite: https://medium.com/@the5thelementIntro Music - "Baxter" By Brock BerriganChillHop MusicOther Podcasts Under The 5EPN:Diggin' In The Digits5EPN RadioBlack Women Watch...In Search of SauceThe Beauty Of Independence
