"What's Good?" W/ Charlie Taylor

Last week, I hit up a couple of exhibitions in London. One of which was "The Ascension Years" in the Black Cultural Archives in Brixton which highlighted the work of Photographer Tee Max.

The exhibition covers his Hip-Hop work right on the precipice of Hip-Hop's 2nd boom in the mid 90s and features the likes of Nas, OutKast, Busta Rhymes, Da Brat, Mary J. Blige, Beyoncé and more.

After a riveting conversation with him during my visit to the exhibition, I said "I need you on my Pod!" and here we are. I talk to Tee Max about his beginnings, how women's magazines ignited his interest in photography; the challenges of Film Photography; his experiences as a Black & British photographer in the 90s; why he took a decade-plus long break from Photography and, of course, his Top 5.
