Skepta: Greatness Only reveals all about the enigmatic genius currently leading the British Grime scene. Written and presented by Skepta's sister and Beats 1 anchor, Julie Adenuga and directed by friend and collaborator, Matthew Walker, Greatness Only is set to become the definitive documentary for Skepta fans.
Filmed in the weeks leading up to the biggest show of his career at London’s iconic Alexandra Palace, Greatness Only features raw footage of Skepta throughout his career, insightful interviews with Semtex and Pharrell Williams and contributions from Skepta’s inner circle including his brother, JME and mother, Ify Adenuga.
"It really means the world to me to be able to tell people this story, and to tell it properly. I’ve watched it from the very beginning, I’ve seen his highs and his lows. The reason I wanted to make this film is because of how inspirational his actions are and how much belief he openly has in himself, a belief that has pushed him to headline the biggest show of his career, just a few years after being at his lowest point.” - Julie Adenuga
Speaking in the film, Skepta says: "Everybody in the scene wondered what I did, but we just had to make the mistakes, and then someone had to be brave enough to choose themselves to go and risk it all.”
