James Stewart
Student / Model — Brighton
03Interview
Name, where are you from?
James Stewart - Brighton East Sussex.
What do you do?
Student / Model. Skating, Fashion, Music.
Describe your style in three words?
Typically, rare, teen.
What’s the best gig you’ve ever been to?
Eminem at Twickenham. Have been a huge fan for as long as I can remember. Would spend hours in my room rapping along trying to get as fast as him. My 12yr old self was literally shaking with excitement at the gig and his energy did not disappoint.
If you could put any three bands in history on a lineup?
Arctic Monkeys. Easy E. XXXTENTACION.
Which subcultures have influenced you?
I think I'm influenced by so much and pretty contrasting things too. I guess inwardly I’m a bit of a hippy but outwardly I’m probably more influenced by street culture. I love the relaxed vibe of the skate scene.
If you could spend an hour with anyone from history?
The Notorious B.I.G - I'd ask him who really shot him.
Where is your favourite independent venue?
Concorde 2 Brighton. Haven’t been to lots of smaller venues in my life yet but the Akala gig I went to here was amazing. It's so small and intimate. Also by day it's a cool place to skate.
Your greatest unsung hero or heroine in music?
Probably Drex Carter. Awesome meaningful lyrics, such a smooth voice and nice beats. Definitely deserves more recognition.
