Welcome to Season 3 of Improv and Magic!
To kick off Season 3, my guest today is the amazing Will Naameh, known all of the world as MC Hammersmith. He is a multi-award winning hip hop comedian. He writes and performs original hip hop comedy tracks, and performs improvised freestyle rap comedy based on audience suggestions. He is the world's leading rapper to ever emerge from the ghetto of middle class west London. MC Hammersmith has won several awards, including 2017 UK Improv Smackdown Championship, 2018 Scottish Comedy Award (Best Newcomer), and 2020 Scottish Comedy Award (Best Improv/Variety). His show has been described as “Stomach achingly funny”, "A masterclass in lyrical improvisation", and "An improvised hip hop masterpiece”.
Will was an absolute blast to talk to! He was very friendly, very insightful, and shares a lot about his beginnings and how he became the MC Hammersmith we know and love. In this conversation, his passion and his excitement really comes through, and I hope it brings as much joy to you as it did to me!
