So I did an interview with The Guardian last night on the UK battle scene...
 

...and our Barmageddon events.

Not sure when it's published, but i'll inform you when it is. It was weird man, not at all what I expected, had someone with a camera filming the entire thing and a lighting girl even though the article was to be typed up. Maybe they do it incase something's inaudible when they watch it back and they're taking excerpts?

Taylor said he saw something in the headline they had about Mark Grist but I've no idea, I didn't see it.

@Flo Real I started writing last night at half time in the Arsenal game. I'll post most likely tomorrow. My life's been hectic of late.

words cannot describe how excited I am right now..

Nice lars - they probably will use it for an online feature - pretty sure if your a member on the guardian Site thy have loads of recorded interviews so I'd look into it. No worries look forward to seeing it. What was that about grist btw?

My boy Taylor came through with me, he was sat behind the guys asking questions/recording and he reckons he saw some typed up bit of the article mentioning Mark Grists name. His and Blizzard's battle went viral so it makes sense they would mention that.

You just brought my avatar back.

Pussy.

UK battle scene > The world

@Lars yeah I remember when they interviewed grist after it went viral - tried making out blizzard was his student

Do you mean organized league battles? If so, I agree. But that's it.
Links to interview asap lars. You want it print too, cause the guardian has deep circulation. Really good exposure.

There the only battles I know tbh

Good looking out.

They'll link my FB page to it I'm sure, I have Pete and the interviewers added as friends.

Why do you do?
Like, why are you getting interviewed?

I'm a rapper/event co-ordinator/host of a local league called Barmageddon I started back in January 2012 with Skitty.

Prior to that I battled in JumpOff, Art Of Freestyle, Got Beef?, The LAB, Don't Flop etc

They've been to a few of our events previously to see what they were about, contacted us via Facebook to see if they could interview us on the current UK scene, where we thought it could go, what are future plans were, what if any problems we've had along the way etc

I didn't really want to talk about someone getting glassed at the first event but Skitty went right in and said it haha!

Wow. I was unaware of all of that.
What name did you battle under? Can I find your battles on YouTube?

And is that the Australian got beef battle league?

BRB I'll have my secretary mail you my info.

I can't remember the password I used for my Baron Mynd name here, but yeah, that's me.
