This week on Trevor Blackman Now, we bring you four inspiring conversations with people using creativity, culture and community to make a difference.
We begin with 2 Badda, the poet, artist and community leader whose music has become a voice for the streets. He joins me to discuss his latest EP, If You Can't Hear You Will Feel, his journey from viral freestyles to founding The Badda Trust, and why music should never be afraid to speak truth to power.
As part of our final Pride Month celebration – Standing Firm in Power and Pride – singer-songwriter Shea joins us to talk about his uplifting anthem Born Free, featuring RuPaul's Drag Race UK star Paige Three. We discuss identity, belonging, creativity and why authenticity remains at the heart of his music.
Next, I welcome actor Pyerre Clarke, whose powerful Windrush monologue at Wembley stopped audiences in their tracks. We reflect on his acting career, the importance of preserving Black history through storytelling, and his commitment to giving voice to communities whose stories deserve to be heard.
Finally, filmmaker and campaigner Ed Accura introduces his powerful new documentary, No Lifeguard. Filmed across Ghana, Sri Lanka and London, the film challenges us to rethink water safety and asks why prevention must begin long before anyone reaches the shoreline.
Join me for another edition of Trevor Blackman Now—where music, culture and current affairs come together through conversations that matter.
📻 Listen live every Sunday from 12pm on Maritime Radio 96.5 FM.
