Sowmya Krishnamurthy
Manage episode 378654886 series 2037892
From we were knee-high, one thing we were taught in our respective communities (Black, Asian and Hip Hop) is that you have to look good. Anything less was uncivilised. Real talk, Hip Hop and Fashion are so intertwined. Don't believe us? How many trash rappers get a pass because they look the part and dress well? No questions. We have too many answers.
This week, we're joined by Journalist, Writer and all-round bad gyal with the pen, Sowmya Krishnamurthy, who has just released her first book, Fashion Killa: How Hip-Hop Revolutionized High Fashion. Sowmya shares the origins of writing the book, the years it took to get the story straight, challenges, lessons learned and everything in between.
