Want tips on MC lyricism from an originator in the UK music scene? We had the incredible honour of hosting MC Navigator on Glowitheflow recently. MC Navigator presented the BBC's first ever Jungle radio show: Radio One's 'One in The Jungle'. He is an originator of the Jungle scene. His MC style was forged in the fires of Jamaican Dancehall and Reggae sound system dances. These live sessions were so loud and pumping, you had to make sure your voice carried on the mic. If not, you'd risk getting boxed in the head by a Rude Boy, or worse still, getting bottled 'til you got off stage.
Navigator is one to look up to and here he offers tips and advice on writing generated over years of mastering his craft in song-writing and vocal delivery. A qualified sound engineer; music producer and mentor of youth, he has everything covered that Hip Hop HEALS promotes so chatting was a real joy.

We first met Gardna, aged 19, at a Bristol free party. Hard to believe almost a decade has passed since we chatted in that derelict warehouse car park. Since then, he's gone on to make waves. Just before the pandemic, he was telling us how he'd been booked to play on a super yacht in Dubai. And it's no wonder. This Bristol-based artist is so talented, so fun, so good; you just have to listen to his music and check him out. He fuses elements from across the sound system spectrum to conjure up his own unique rhythmic blends. His music channels Bristol’s rich musical heritage and earns him critical praise from across the globe.
