In a slightly shorter but just as special interview, I head to Barbican to talk to co-founder of UK’s leading hip-hop dance theatre company Boy Blue and composer/producer Michael "Mikey J" Asante in anticipation for Boy Blue's new show "Cycles". With Hip-Hop as an accidental throughline for the interview, we talk his beginnings, starting a dance company, the aim of "Cycles" and of course his Top 5.
