The Lewisham grime collective perform Lewisham McDeez with their former leader
Following this week’s announcement that Novelist has left The Square, it’s somewhat bittersweet that Black Cab Sessions have now shared an interactive new episode featuring the crew. The video sees the nine MCs in the group split between three cabs, and the viewer is able to switch between them.
“Hailing down three of London’s finest drivers, we split the crew up into the different cabs and got them to record one track together,” Black Cab Sessions told The Fader. “Using some nifty technology we have been able to turn all of this into one session, where the viewer can switch between the three cabs instantly at the touch of a button.”
You can watch the video here and read tweets regarding Novelist’s departure from The Square below.
I’ve left TheSquare. Shifty things have been happening for a while & I’m 18 carrying a lot of people’s careers alone. Time to be myself. 📝

I’m 18 and I don’t give a shit. I don’t care about rules so don’t give me any. It’s about living life in the best way that suits you.
