By now Scroobius Pip will have received his letter from the Queen (very interested to know when she's on the podcast, that'll be ace), and enjoying a celebratory non-hot beverage, so let's all celebrate along with the DPP master and welcome his long term music making partner and long awaited guest MISTER DAN LE SAC!!!It's a long awaited one as people have been understandably hassling since the very first episode and asking when it will happen, but as you will hear it made a lot of sense to let some time pass since their last gig and release until they sat down and had a good old fashioned catch up and run-down of their incredible career as the almighty Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip! The chat went on for so long, as you would imagine, that this is a two parter. In this episode we catch up properly with Dan, and what he has been up to since 'RRR' (Repent, Replenish, Repeat), his current gaming activity over on...

Ed Skrein [part 1 of 2] - Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip #94 Apr 19, 2016

Show notes

Welcome, welcome WELCOME to the 94th episode of Distraction Pieces, an episode so uncontainably fresh it's a two parter! Come around and witness the brilliance of North London's rapper-turned-actor phenomenon mister Ed Skrein!Pure inspirational joy right here while Pip converses with Skrein ("like wine" if you were pondering) and gets unfathomably deep about Ed's insane four year ascension into the world of acting, which threw him into such situations as, oh just a little series you might know as Game Of Thrones, and cinema sureshots such as Transporter Refueled, Kill Your Friends, the Distraction Pieces favourite (in line with most of the world) Deadpool, and his early introduction into the acting scene alongside rapper/singer/director Plan B in 'Ill Manors'. All peppered with his love of hip hop and grime, and wrapped up in a perfect mantra which you should and will take with you and involve in your own life. You'll know when you hear it... Brilliant. And this is only part one... Grab part two right away!
