Clash 122 Popcaan

Popcaanis the fourth face of Clash 122.

Lockdown saw Popcaan cut off from the worldso he tapped into his heritage, and burrowed deeper than ever. The results are going to take him to the next level.

With an album incoming, the Jamaican icon talks about his inspirations, and his processes; reflecting on grief, and his need to engage, Popcaan shares his full story – and reveals a little about what’s to come.

Retaining a deep love for British music, he shouts out UK drill, muses on diasporic communications, and exclusively reveals that he’s taking Unruly Fest to London for the very first time.

As he puts it: I use music to free myself its like healing.
