“I’ve been into makina and its associated MCs like Stompin since I was about 11,” said Patrick. “MC Stompin is maybe the most legendary MC in the North East and so many people had been asking to play some makina this time. I thought because of COVID, I wanted to do something unexpected which resonated with the region, so I kept it a secret, then brought him out for 20 minutes and the place went mad!”. The energy throughout MC Stompin's appearance was incredible, and it was a memorable way to end a culturally significant evening.
