It is my greatest honour to receive the DJ Mag Top 100 2022 Lifetime Achievement Award. I accepted this award on behalf of Manchester – it’s such a rare occasion when anything like this is awarded North of Watford plus I have a sneaking suspicion that I am the first woman (black woman) to win it which makes it even more special and historic. This is also to prove that you don’t have to be an Instagram influencer with millions of followers to make your mark. If you can make a difference, be fearless and make a difference. This is also for anyone who gets knocked down nine times and stands up ten. I see you. And so do they.
September’s all star guest for the Paulette Takeover on Reform Radio is Razor N Tape’s JKRIV – we are not worthy.

I loved this story in The Guardian today - it is a good reminder that no matter what we humans think of ourselves, we cannot control the weather and that there is and will always be something much greater than us out there. It is also a reminder that the earth, trees, plants will be here in some way, shape or form long after we have gone. It is a timely reality check.
