Drill music… it’s topping the charts, on the radio and stuck in our heads. But despite its popularity, it remains a controversial genre. Â鶹Éç Three has just released a documentary, which looks at the police’s response to Drill music. De-Graft sits down with Rianna Gayle, one of the documentary’s producers, as well as Kingsley Okyere - co-founder of Mixtape Madness - to discuss Drill, which is now even being played in courts.

Next, we’re heading to Jamaica, which is currently the only country with our King as head of state where you need to apply for a visiting visa to holiday in the UK. Our very own, Kamilah McInnis, investigates how the policy is affecting Jamaican people trying to visit their loved ones in the UK.

And, you may have heard of Amani Simpson, the award-winning youth coach, speaker and filmmaker. He’s got a new film out called Save Me. Amani also shares his story with De-Graft of being stabbed seven times, and how this inspired him to help others.
