I caught up with Speech Debelle a couple of weeks after her Mercury win. I was initially anticipating interview overload on her part but to her credit we had an enjoyable little chat about hip hop, education and Mcdonald’s amongst other things.

Considering the Mercury win and small venue however, I was a bit gutted to see the place wasn’t rammed – what does a hip hopper have to do to fill a place out, eh?
