HYPER: The Stevie Hyper D Story arrives in Odeon Cinemas nationwide today 🎥
The brand new documentary spotlights the life and career of legendary Drum & Bass MC Stevie Hyper D, real name Stephen Austin, from his rise to fame in the DnB and Jungle scenes to his untimely death in 1998.
Featuring @andyc_ramagram , @nickyblackmarket , @evilbmc , @therealharryshotta , @navi4real , @rebelclash , @uncledugs & more, this is a must-watch for all Junglists & DnB heads 🌍
Big news potentially coming in West London 💙
Off the back of HYPER: The Stevie Hyper D Story, there are now calls in collaboration with Hammersmith & Fulham Council to recognise Stevie with a blue plaque on the house he grew up in on Stephendale Road - marking where Stevie Hyper D lived.
From pirate radio to raves, to helping shape a whole sound and culture, Stevie’s impact is still felt worldwide. A plaque like this would be a powerful, permanent reminder of where it all started - and another meaningful addition to his legacy.
Who would like to see this and Stevie being honoured? Big love to everyone keeping his name, voice and spirit alive! 🎤 LINK IN BIO FOR MORE INFO.
