We're super excited to have Elijah join us at LLAIS for a talk and Q+A which takes place just before the Next Up gig which is headlined by D Double E and supported by some of Wales finest emerging Grime and Drill artists. 

Elijah is an artist, writer, DJ, manager and curator. Having run the independent and influential grime label Butterz that he founded with Skilliam in 2010, his daily writing project of 'yellow squares' on Instagram represents his reflections, ideas, questioning and curiosity about the creative process and what it means to be an artist right now, posing many questions that often don't get asked around being an artist, promoter or manager and covering topics including club nights, funding, music communities, gatekeeping and social media. This talk is for all – whether you’re an emerging artist, a budding promoter, journalist or simply a music fan.
