TIMELESS with Teddy Abrokwa
MISTA SILVA & SKOB ORIGINAL — Artists | The Truth About UK Afrobeats (From the Archive)

Before Afrobeats became a global movement, pioneers in the UK were already laying the foundation.
In this episode of TIMELESS with Teddy, UK Afrobeats trailblazers Mista Silva and Skob Original join Teddy Abrokwa for an open and energetic conversation recorded at JOAT Studios in East London.
Both artists have played key roles in pushing the early UK wave of Afrobeats, breaking barriers and helping shape a sound that would eventually travel far beyond the UK scene.
In this candid discussion, they reflect on their journeys in music — the highs of pioneering a movement, the struggles for recognition, and the role the UK has played in the global rise of African music.
Mista Silva also addresses some notable moments from his career, including the widely discussed stage incident with Shatta Wale and clearing the air regarding differences with Tion Wayne.
At its core, this episode is about perseverance, positivity and the responsibility of artists who helped build a culture before it became mainstream.
