BLK BRIT delves into Victor Ray and Walé Adeyemi’s favourite fashion staples, how to make a statement, main influences and more. It’s time to get into it - these are our December 2024 cover stars.

Renowned British-Nigerian fashion designer Walé Adeyemi MBE needs little to no introduction. He offers reflections on the fashion scene past and present, networking laterally before upward, what making a statement really means, and highlighting what he considers a timeless wardrobe staple. 

Victor Ray is a name that has been steadily rising in the UK music scene. He embodies the ethos of perseverance, self-discovery, and a passion for making meaningful connections through music. His message is clear: every voice matters.

Äyanna is a pop/RNB artist who delivers sweet and soulful sounds to listeners who are open to hearing a refreshing sound from the UK scene. With only a few years of musical experience under her belt, the opportunity for Äyanna arose - providing backing vocals behind Stormzy’s popular track Hide & Seek alongside Afrobeats star, Oxlade.
