Thanks to everyone who turned up to turn up and help us launch ACCLAIM issue #31, The Loud Issue. This one saw us teaming up with our friends at CAT Footwear to make the magic happen, while Kirin beer and cider ensured that the bar was quality. Of course, The Underachievers and their esoteric brand of lyricism brought a killer rap show and a transcendental experience – if that didn’t open your third eye, then I don’t know what what will. Meanwhile, New New York homie Joey Bada$$ also stopped by to say hi. Shoutouts to Niche Productions and to DEER, Rydah (UK) and Mat Cant for performing on the night and being so damn good at what they do.
