[dropcap style=”font-size:100px; color:#992211;”]A[/dropcap]s Robert Glasper took the stage a familiar sea of mobile phones were held aloft.
We were reminded of something Bruce Lee once said: “Don’t think, feel… it is like a finger pointing a way to the moon. Don’t concentrate on the finger or you will miss all that heavenly glory!”
Open your eyes, open your ears, Glasper is pure musical genius.

Photographer, published poet, former party animal, body builder, grave robber
to the stars and renowned chainsaw juggler, Carl can often be spotted on his
Harley Davidson pretending to be in Terminator 2. He is also frequently seen in
the press pits of old London town, camera in hand, avoiding being hit by bottles
of wee and crippling his opposition with secret Kung Fu moves.
