Broaching subjects with unmistakable honesty, Skeamer documents life in Battersea, south west London. Whether he is lamenting the past, recounting the present, or prophesying the future, Skeamer shines a heavy light on the many challenges he and his peers face on the notorious Winstanley estate in Clapham Junction. Delivered with lyricism that can resonate with even the furthest removed listener from his own environment, he embraces hardship and narrates that this is where the foundations of unbreakable social bonds are forged. If witnessing the rise of Battersea’s own So Solid crew acted as an inspirational start point, it is the ever-shifting reality of his surroundings that drive Skeamer’s artistry upwards. From prison time to lost friends; pain and sacrifice are underlying themes in the music he writes. However, with pain comes hope, and for Skeamer it is all about legacy. He explains; “My motivation is my kids and to be heard, in that order. Where we come from is a tough environment and we don't really have a voice. I want to be heard.”
