Playwright, arts journalist and editor Kelundra Smith is this month’s interviewee on Black Artistry: Inspiration Recrafted. I first interviewed her to talk about her debut play The Wash, which received a Rolling World Premiere from the National New Play Network: Listen here: Morley Prize - S4Ep3 - Morley Radio
In this podcast, we chat about Monarchs and inspirational short story writer J California Cooper and her ‘Color Me Real’ from the collection A Piece of Mine. I can’t wait for Kelundra to bring these two plays to London!

How lucky am I? I get to interview Black creatives about their art and inspirations. This interview was recorded in the summer with the artiste Soul Rebel, who’s got reggae music in the blood. She talks about one of her inspirations, a reggae legend, as well as her own journey into reggae music. What I love about Soul Rebel is her vibe and positive energy. And of course, her beautiful voice, which she shares with us in this podcast.
