Fazer: “I feel like the justice system is still very dated, in that sense.”

Fazer: “I feel like the justice system is still very dated, in that sense.”
Cool, so I went totally off-script, okay?
Because how could I not? This is a chat with Fazer - about music and where we’re at today - at a time of huge significance for this scene.
I think it’s wicked in this chat how Fazer is so positive about the growth of UK music.
Listen to his answer when I ask what he thinks about those who might be entering a scene for their own gain, without being personally invested: “It’s been happening since Elvis, mate.” Classic.
And I get the vibe that this is because it’s all love. I feel like Fazer’s upbringing showed him that, while where we’re from is foundation and formative - it shouldn’t define what we can and can’t do - and where we can and can’t go in life, you know?
Like, he’s seen and lived two sides of this - and that’s seen him manifest positivity.
What are you manifesting after listening to this chat? Let me know - I’m @lilliealmond on Twitter and @almondsweetness on Insta.
And we’d love you to leave us a review! Thanks for listening x
