“I met Shante at the Cold Chillin' record label offices. She had a great sense of humour and didn’t take herself too seriously, which makes things a lot easier for a photographer. This shot wasn’t used at the time and hasn’t been seen since.” Lawrence Watson
Lawrence first travelled to the United States in March 1985 to shoot the early stars of hip-hop for NME. It was the first of over ten trips he would make in the next two years, documenting the artists who took hip-hop from block parties to the Billboard charts.
