Richard Blackwood
Considered by some to be the UK's answer to Will Smith, TV presenter, comedian, pop star/rapper, actor and radio DJ Richard Blackwood has many strings to his bow. As a rapper and singer, Richard had a no.3 hit single in 2000 with his cover of Junior's 'Mama Used To Say' (who happens to be Richard's uncle!), reworked as 'Mama Who Da Man'. Nowadays you will mostly find Richard on the stand-up circuit.

Dane Baptiste
After growing up in '80s South-East London and surviving a post-Bush, post-racial, post-Thatcher, post-Twilight Society, Dane realised that it was a moral obligation to chronicle and in some places parody the human experience and contemporary western culture. Star of hit podcasts Dane Baptiste Questions Everything and Quotas Full. As seen on Live at the Apollo, 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, Sunny D, Live at the Palladium…pretty much all over your TV screen. 'Brilliant' (Comedy Blogedy) 'Intelligent and genuinely hilarious' (Adam Bloom) 'Observational comedy at its finest' (The Independent) 'Baptiste is a comical genius' (www.EdFestMag.com) 'A thunderingly charismatic comic' (The Guardian).

Toju
The Jimi Hendrix of comedy, Toju has been on the comedy circuit for 17 years. His TV credits include 'The Real McCoy', Channels 4's 'Balls Of Steel', 'The A'Force', 'Get Up, Stand Up' as well as many others. He is one of the most invigorating young stand-ups to emerge from the new generation of black British comedy. While his targets include the empty commercialism of modern culture, he uses a wide variety of mainstream references to make his points: Brit gangster films, martial arts movies, the Incredible Hulk. His influences range from Dennis Leary and Bill Hicks to sitcoms like Rising Damp. Although often angry, he is also gloriously inclusive.
