Nonzus Magnus on his obsession with film - #Mabcast 025

This week on the Mabcast Dylan and Jack are joined by Belfast's Jordan Adetunji. After his recent nomination in two categories of the Northern Ireland Music Prize the rapid fire MC opened up on his experiences as a rapper in a city not traditionally receptive to hip hop. Detailing his latest track 'Questions' and the subsequent music video, Jordan explains some of the conceptualised thinking behind much of his work, later expanding this into some of the doctrines he lives by. "Do you what you like, do you what believe in and see through your vision. You'll find other people that will organically gravitate towards you, you can go really far off your own vision" Citing influences ranging from Michael Jackson to Chipmunk and incorporating a blend of funk, rock and grime into his music, Jordan embodies what it means to be a modern hip hop artist. Not suffocated by traditional limits of what rap music should sound like, the London born, Belfast based artist champions his approach to making music and noted the importance of his friends, family and team for his growth and success. Having recently featured in a BBC documentary providing an insight in to one of Northern Ireland's biggest festivals - Stendhal Festival, its clear Jordan is destined for big things, catch the interview before everyone else eventually catches onto one of the north's musical gems.
