Richmond based rapper Kam-BU, 25, has the world at his feet. He made waves with his acclaimed debut EP, Black On Black, and he’s about to play the Great Escape Festival in Brighton next weekend - but what he’s more concerned with right now is climate change.
“Music’s cool, I love music and I love doing shows, but I feel like there’s more to do with my time and looking after the environment is one of them.” When we speak, with him Zooming from his dad’s home in Richmond, he’s on a rare day off in between recording his next project and his volunteering work, both with the London Wildlife Trust and at Twickenham’s Crane Park. This is not your average music interview, it’s fair to say.
