Musician and academic Mykaell Riley arrives at Interview City ready to tell it like it is. One of the original members of Steel Pulse as well as a successful writer, producer and performer for over 25 years, he’s currently a Senior Lecturer at the University of Westminster and Director of the Bass Culture Research Unit, having recently curated the recent “Bass Culture” exhibition. Articulate and unapologetic in his advocacy, Mykaell talks openly about his experience of being both Black and British, and makes the case for a musical culture that continues to be seriously underappreciated and marginalized. Asking for answers is the writer and critic Paul Morley.

Unfamiliar stories, trenchant opinion, and missing perspectives. That’s what we’re all about in Interview City. Welcomed to the City will be a series of individuals that we know, like and admire. Those who have accomplished things and have something to say about both the current and former state of play. We’ll have ruminations, digressions, revelations and provocations, all teased out by the City’s own writer in residence, the cultural commentator and provocateur Paul Morley.
