Musician Masego pays us a visit as he gets ready to headline the Cross The Tracks Festival in Brixton. He spills the tea on what it was like growing up with two pastor parents, how he learned to play so many instruments (spoiler alert: he plays at least FIVE) and what the future has in store for him.
Also, we hear from one of you guys who messaged us about awareness of multiple sclerosis in the black community. Natalie Busari explains what life’s been like for her since she was diagnosed with MS, including being disowned by some of her relatives.
And you might have seen a video on your social media feeds about autism in black children in the UK. Neurodivergent consultant Lauren-Rochelle Fernandez rolls through to help us bust some myths and share the facts. We want to hear from you!
