This week we explore all the latest rumours, news and changes in the fashion world - from creative director changes across fashion houses to collaborations between fashion and sport - fashion's finally fun again, and we're talking all about it.
In our latest episode, we meet Kenny, marketing agency founder and (the Premiere League’s first ever) creative director.Hosted by Kesi, we explore Kenny’s incredible journey — from co-founding Playdot Apparel (IYKYK) and owning his own post office franchise, to creating his own marketing agency and a soon-to-be launched production company.

There’s been a lot of pushback from artists — from SZA to Fireboy — for being forced into genres they feel they don’t align with. It begs the question: is the industry pigeonholing artists? Is Wizkid really not Afro anything? Let’s get into it.
