Ben Clapp

If I’ve tried and failed to explain to you the relationship between Michael Jackson and ‘The Conga’, it’s Ben Clapp’s fault. But you’re in luck – all is revealed in this ace episode with Grey London’s ECD.

Laser Quest manager, programmer, breakdancer, journo, Prince super-fan… he’d describe himself as none of these things, but we do chat about them all.

He does, however, describe himself as “I’m very low maintenance.” He eats the same thing for breakfast every day, but doesn’t make a fuss if he can’t get it. He’ll buy a several units of the same garment if he likes it (in black, of course) and cuts his own hair. Doesn’t stack up to someone who’s so slick on the mic, but he is.

You’ll hear The Modern Lovers and Adam Ant, Whodini and a surprising Backstreet Boys banger, but it’s really all about Prince. I’m going to ask for that NonDef Prince playlist for the next one.
