“They say don’t conform to the stereotypes, but the Black in me has been wired in.”

Welcome to the world of The Spit Game.

We are a creative collective representing young Black London cultures. Through our films, we explore some of the challenges young Black people face. Through our music, we champion and celebrate the vibrancy of young Black talent.

In our exhibition, you’ll see four short films that we made as part of our year-long Just Futures residency at Science Gallery London.

These films have been inspired by research we conducted in local secondary schools; existing research in the Arts & Humanities faculty at King’s College London; and our own experiences.

We invite you to watch the films and take a look behind-the-scenes to discover how we use music and film to champion authenticity and self-expression. Then step into the Spit Game Studio, and give voice to your own kind of creativity.
