As an asain listening to Jungle music in school, Original Nuttah was my favourite track on Jungle Hits 1. However, more importantly, hearing that UK Apache was asain too made the music feel more accessible to me because someone I could identify with was actively contributing to the scene. Thank you, UK Apache, and big up Ron as always 🙏🏾

I am Puerto Rican from NYC. Was a skin in the early 80's. We were influenced by English skinheads that listened to ska, two tone, Oi!, and punk. We often fought the Nazi skins that mostly came from Long Island and New Jersey suburbs. I started working in clubs in NYC that played House music. Which became my journey into the rave scene ie The Limelight club. And later on jungle. And naturally living in Brooklyn we had Hip Hop and dancehall. I finally went to London in 2018 a dream come true. Visiting the places I heard of as a kid. I wish I was there now. About to miss David Rodigan play. And about to miss Dillinja playing in Brixton. NYC use to be the place for all things important. Not anymore.

London's melting pot created some of the most amazing talent. UK Apache's story is so unique and his legacy lives on. There were very few Asian and Arab MCs in the scene back then. UK Apache being one of them, there was MC Riddla D, MC Mighty Moe, MC Spidey G, MC Hyperactive, MC Skanker, and, MC Magika. Credit to them all for repping! Such a shame UK Apache gave it all up! Surely, he has to make a comeback.

[@markuseden2105]

I think Apachi probably did himself a favour walking away when he did and finding something deeper. The likelihood of him ending up a one hit wonder like Levi was high and would have just lead to frustration. Junglist Girls was a much weaker record than Nuttah was and only a year later the whole ragga jungle fad was over and it was Goldie / Photek and Bukems time in the sunshine with a more "refined" version of jungle / fledging dnb. Big up the man dem! Really enjoyed this interview. He seems to good / honest for the music industry anyway.

[@Adam-g-uk]

Not necessarily the goldie era, the scene split, you had the v/chronic/formation ect stuff that spawned the hip hop jump up dnb and you had the darker metalheadz/source direct/ no u turn type of stuff....

[@markuseden2105]

@@Adam-g-uk I'm talking about the commercial success side of things. Goldie had a hit with Inner city life in 94' and from then things went down that route pretty quick - i.e. ragga went out the window. Then u had Roni Size / Reprezent in 95 / 96 and at the same time Bukem's sound blew up too. Anyway, details. :) Short story - Apachi would probably not have been in the game for long with the Ragga ting.

As a Tooting lad and massive Junglist from back in day, this is by far my fav interview. It was always Bevin' vs Furzedown - I love reminiscing about those days! Ron I loved the way you kept pulling up the interview as insight hit you, as it captured key moments and connected the dots of the conversation. I was lucky enough to see Outlook Orchestra @ Royal Festival hall. We had no idea UK Apache was the special guest, trust he tore down the place like an oldskool sweatbox AWOL, as good then - if not better. I appreciate the candour and honesty of Apache opening up about his family and musical challenges. I love the sentiment of him having no regrets and not dwelling on what could've been from a financial POV. hindsight's a b*tch - if only's a story we can all relate to! Keep the interviews rollin'.

[@scarbsmandem]

So here is another example of why I respect you so much Ron. Big up Uk Apache for doing this interview, for sharing his feelings surrounding him leaving the scene and for being open to hearing a different take on certain things. I did want to point out that there was a section of this interview where UK Apache was speaking more from the heart and his hurt feelings vs from a factual standpoint. 99% of interviewers would have just let Apache continue on. Some might have even used his words to create some clickbait around his hurt feelings to get viewers. Big ups to Ron for stopping to ensure that Apache understood that he was incorrect with his narrative. This can only help him heal from a difficult situation that occurred in the past but is clearly still something that he is holding on to (I would to, no judgement here) Top notch interview once again. Big up both of you for the amazing things you have both done thus far on this blue marble. Can’t wait to hear more from you both.

[@LondonSomething1994]

Thank you for your observation and kind words to us both. It was and to a degree is still a challenging period for him to recount but with alternative POVs for him to consider him and others can learn from his experience. Thank you for your supports, it’s genuinely appreciated 🎁

UK Apache, always real! Great chat, love the journey! There was an interesting word used in the interview used to describe the consequences that came about following the huge decision UK made in the early stages of his career "Accountability"... While that is fair in some regards, shouldn't we also use the term "Responsibility" when in comes to some of the influential elements surrounding UK at the time. Some people clearly took advantage of the situation, shouldn't they also be considered?

[@LondonSomething1994]

You’re absolutely right. We’ve discussed off camera pre and post the episode how important it is to have trustworthy representation in this industry and any other legal undertaking. The fates of so many at that time were left at the mercy of those who with hindsight only had their own interest at heart.

[@sukantchandan7255]

UK Apache is of course correct in stating that many MCs were blocked by the Jungle DnB and Garage elites in the late 1990s into the 2000s. The frustration was turned positive when that pressure produced the Grime movement. UK Apache is a super humble brother. It’s a shame that his comments and feelings on Gaza and Palestine were not developed, was this a deliberate act of censorship? People are saying this platform is compromised in this regards cos Rinse FM is linked to Sony.

[@LondonSomething1994]

No re your question on censorship. This platform has no affiliation to Rinse FM apart from its first three episodes being filmed in their studio in 2018.

[@sukantchandan7255]

Thanks for the reply. Of course, anxieties in this regards can be present even if there’s not formal relation to racist capitalist interests who are hostile to Palestine. You said you would chat about Palestine with UK Apache later in the chat, and then there’s nothing. So perhaps you can appreciate the lack of confidence here. If you don’t mind the question: why didn’t you pursue that line of chat when clearly UK Apache is so motivated on the issue? Also, the bit where you got annoyed at UK Apache calling out the discrimination and shadiness in the industry at circa 1hr 15mins had some edits which raised an eyebrow in me, as it were.

To suggest there was no politics in the scene is ludicrous, dj rap confirmed this and also det did in this very same podcast series. The same can be said about uk garage scene with the youngers like Wiley and co which led off to a whole genre split. As for the major test for uk apache, this was a major failing from the Muslim community who should have had a support network for himself and his grandmother and mother during that turbulent time. One cannot even fathom how difficult that must of been and this really doe take a chunk out of sometimes life away. Given Muslims are so supposedly organised when it comes to aid charity in war conflicts what was to stop them from helping him out with some aid to relieve someone so well known in this scene and community ? Yes we all we have difficult struggles but a helping hand doesn’t go to far. As for the issue of the duress and such, Abdul wahab if you are reading then sadly they mislead you to an extreme understanding of this. The issue of duress and lesser of the two evils has complex environments from which a jurisdiction would never allow one to engage in fisq. And this blame really could have been prevented from people who mostly wealthy and make money via Islam in the media etc. Not calling out names ,but those who ask the ummah to fund their camera equipment etc for their KZbin could have donated some charity to Abdul Wahab. So for those that know, this is the fault of the madkhali and ikhwani movements down south London. May Allah grant you sabr and thabat for your enduring times of difficulties and elevate your status, music is a great difficult thing to give up and especially granted you are at the status you were. Much love since 94.
