Freight Brixton will present Lost Tapes mixed by Ché Wax on 23 October 2026. The event runs from 18:00 and imagines an album history featuring Kendrick Lamar and Gil Scott Heron. Admission costs from £5.00.
Before Kendrick Lamar, there was Gil Scott-Heron. He laid the groundwork for conscious rap through spoken word and fearless social commentary, drawing on the East Coast jazz poets of the Harlem Renaissance to turn poetry into a political force. Decades later, Kendrick Lamar picked up the mic and carried that same tradition forward, rooted in West Coast hip-hop and built for the mainstream stage. When he quoted "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised" during his Super Bowl halftime show, he was pointing straight back to where it all started.
The Godfather of rap meets his poet laureate.
Lost Tapes asks the question: what would a collaboration between these two sound like? Through DJs, live performance and visuals, we imagine the album that history never gave us, live on London's Largest Rooftop mixed by the legendary Ché Wax.
