What’s the best about London’s music scene?
We have so much un-genre’d music everything and everyone is experimental and just about showing talent and being expressive. Slowly people are starting to work together, especially London, I do feel collaboration used to be difficult but visions are becoming shared and open now.

There are so many pockets of fashion and designers. A designer could be my favorite artist such as Rihanna or Kanye. I wear a lot of brands which I’ve become friends with such as Supreme, Off-White, A-COLD-WALL, I love Riccardo Tisci for his impressive growth from Puma to Givenchy, that’s very aspiring.
Your favorite places to shop in London?
I actually hate physically shopping, it stresses me out. I just naturally collect items when I travel – there’s a flee market in LA off Melrose every Sunday which is the chillest place I’ve been physically, otherwise I spot items online.
