#HaveYouHeardGeorgesPodcast Episode 1 Listen Closer

George explores the roles of family and formal education in the lives of marginalised young people. With more elaborate scene-setting, his lyrical stream of consciousness flows over a soundscape that is increasingly cinematic and journalistic. The Poet argues that inner city music acts a pressure valve for voiceless young people who face systemic disadvantage. Expanding on the points of the previous episode, he advocates for youth having space to "speak their truth", and for listeners to take consideration of the problematic realities behind this art.

Featured songs: 
Klashnekoff - Murder

A young teacher's daily struggles provide the backdrop for this harrowing reflection on the Grenfell Tower tragedy. In a move from journalism to drama, George departs with the documentary-style narration of previous episodes to deliver a heart-wrenching story of resilience and neglect in London's inner city. Enlisting the help of rising star Jade Alleyne, poet Sophia Thakur as well as his own brothers, Freddie, Michael and Kenny Mpanga, George introduces a small universe of characters whose witty exchanges offer insight into their respective environments.

Chika Dole - Touch

#HaveYouHeardGeorgesPodcast Episode 3 A Grenfell Story

Adamant that his podcast should serve as an educational tool, George revisits the (previous) Grenfell episode to walk the same analytical path he forged in the series debut. Complete with space and time travel, this psychedelic experience sits in the midpoint between journalism and drama.

#HaveYouHeardGeorgesPodcast Episode 4 It's On Us

Have you ever wished you could teleport? Or mind-read? Or travel time? All of these are easier than you think. Every time you press play you step into another world and open yourself up to someone else's experience. This might not sound like a groundbreaking discovery in an era of constant verbal and visual bombardment, but the potential of this truth is limitless. In his own wildly unconventional way, George the Poet uses music from his environment to convey this point. All you have to do is press play. 

Featured songs: 
Mucky - It's On Me
Maleek Berry - Gimme Life
Bonnie Beretta - Team Bonnie
Guala - Guala Gwala
1011 - Next Up?
