Jubemi is a Nigerian born, London raised, Ayrshire based and Glasgow living rapper and good friend – hes is also known as BEMZ.
As rap culture has progressed in the U.K, have you wondered what it takes to enter and navigate the scene – especially in Scotland? Jubemi aka BEMZ speaks his biography for us to better understand it.
Jubemi opens up about his journey (from Nigeria to London to Stranraer to Ayr to Glasgow) and the support for his passion in each varying location. He also speaks openly about the racism and discouragement spit-balled at him in less gentrified locations.
Expect to learn:
- That hardship was the pen Jubemi used to write lyrics – without his life hurdles the BEMZ tracks wouldn’t exist.
- How to be unapologetically YOU and transcend this headspace into a creative outlet.
- How BEMZ wishes unity and togetherness in the Glasgow rap scene
- How Jude and BEMZ separate themselves on and off stage
We also have an absolute piss take throughout and it was hands-down one of the funniest and most energised podcasts I have done.
Hope you enjoy!
Thanks Jubemi again for coming on!
