Dap Adeola (DAPS) takes us on a blunt, honest journey through his life as a British Black African. From an early age he was destined to live his life, on his terms. Having left his parents behind in Nigeria at the age of four, he lived with his Aunt, in South London until 2011. Still considered the ‘black sheep’ of the family his non-conformity shows up throughout his life, and sees it as a strength he brings to his art, cartoons and more recently in his award winning children’s book illustrations. It’s an inspiring, entertaining honest story. Well worth a listen.
