This post is for all the Bhangra fans! I recently had the honor of meeting and presenting a custom-made T-shirt to Birmingham's beat master, Dr Zeus (). As a singer, composer, and producer, he is a true legend in the music world.

​It was a fantastic experience meeting Zeus and his team. He was incredibly appreciative of the shirt, and thought my illustration was uncanny, which I presented on behalf of and . I chose a clean, simple design and added a touch of "bling" to make the top pop! We had a great chat and managed to grab a few photos before he headed off to work. He's a great guy, humble to the max.

​When he played "Jugni Ji" later that night, the memories came flooding back—my little boy loves that song just as much as I do and it's requested by the 3 year old constantly in the car. I am truly grateful for the opportunities coming my way and want to thank everyone who has supported my journey with The Funk Academy.

If you have a favourite Dr Zeus track then leave the title in the comments and we can see if it becomes my son's favourite too 💙

An absolute dynamite meet-up with the presenter, sports reporter, host, and all-round superstar that is Amber Sandhu.

​The Funk Academy had the opportunity to create a unique T-shirt for Amber to showcase her love for being a fan. The real joy was seeing her expression of appreciation for my work and hearing her say, "I really love this; I’ll be wearing this all the time!"

I had the chance to explain the inspiration behind the design. Knowing Amber is a huge Wolverhampton Wanderers football fan, I designed a full-print pattern of her name and knocked out the Wolves logo in the centre so it stands out vividly. The palette was entirely inspired by the team’s iconic colours.

Hope you enjoy wearing the T-shirt, , as much as I enjoyed working on it!

I was proud to be invited to the "Decade Of Blues 4 All" anniversary. This was an evening to celebrate the togetherness of the inclusive community and recognise the achievements of members who have dedicated their efforts to champion Blues 4 All supporters group.

The Funk Academy was asked to create a number of unique T-shirts for the individuals receiving awards on the night. With the brief provided by Bik of , I was able to design football related T-shirts for the individuals that captured their personalities and recognition of the work they do at Blues 4 All.

The room was filled with a fantastic community which has supported Blues 4 All over the decade. Along with the Birmingham Lord Mayor ( ) who presented the awards, the evening was hosted by a very energetic Amber Sandhu ( ), keeping the crowd engaged before people let loose on the dance floor with entertainment provided by and a special appearance from DJ Zeus ( )

I had such a memorable evening surrounded by fantastic people, it was so great to see the individuals receiving their T-shirt awards which I created from scratch so they can wear as a constant reminder of the efforts volunteering at Blues for All.

I'll be posting more pics over the next few days of the event so stay tuned.
