This is the spectacularly good front cover to LIVE 34 - London's finest youth publication. If you don't know LIVE is a magazine for young people by young people aged 13 to 22 and every element of magazine (every word, photo and all the design) is done by young people with help from mentors such as myself, Emma Warren, Hayley Joyes, Zena Alkayat, Steve Yats and Camelia Muldermans.
In all my years of working on LIVE - four and counting - this front cover is the strongest, it's got such a fresh, light spring-like feel so massive props to Charlene Nakamusa for organising and executing the photoshoot with such panache and professionalism.
If you want more infor on LIVE, or LIVE EAST - the sister title based in Whitechapel - drop me a line.
In this issue of LIVE you will find interviews with Tinie Tempah, beautiful cover star Mpho, T2, Estelle's younger sis H Boogie, Mercury prize winner Speech Debelle and hard hitting features on binge drinking and the reality of life behind bars.
Big pat on the back to TEAM LIVE
