Aniefiok Ekpoudom is undeniably one of the greatest writers in the country, and has been documenting the music and the culture that surrounds it for many years now. Where We Come From was an inevitable next step for a writer of Aniefiok Ekpoudom’s stature, and after working on it for the best part of five years, Where We Come From is almost upon us.
Due out on the 18th of January 2024, the book is a seminal text capturing the history of UK rap and grime. But rather than a simple re-telling, Aniefiok Ekpoudom has carved out something truly unique, and is as much about the music as it is about the intimate, individual stories of those that make it.
The book captures the rich social history that brought the music that we love to life, and is told by one of the most talented wordsmiths of our generation.
