[INTERVIEW] Getting Candid with Master Peace

We’re getting candid in our interview with Master Peace.

Master Peace is the artist moniker for London-based Peace Okezie who makes self-proclaimed “electroclash” music for dancing. Earlier this year Master Peace released his debut album and won an award for Ivor Novello’s Rising Star. With huge support slots for the likes of The Streets and Genesis Owusu under his belt, he’s following that up with another EP and a headline tour across the UK and EU this October.

We talk to Peace about how he accidentally started the wave of indie sleaze in the UK, how he has fought against the boxes people have tried to put him in order to make art that fully represents himself, and why ‘happiness and freedom’ are a core part of his philosophies as a human and an artist.
