2 Designers Transform Each Other’s Work (ft. Valentino's Pierpaolo Piccioli & Thebe Magugu) | Vogue
https://www.youtube.com/embed/Swrr92xQy2w
i think the concept of reworking and reinterpreting another designer's work is very exciting i think it creates an opportunity for there to be creative tension i love the idea of reinterpreting that actually i even more love the idea of creating a moment between two identities to culture a moment of meeting whatever this is in my favorite color already rice wow gorgeous when i opened the box from valentino for the very first time i was incredibly nervous because i'm a bit of a planner so i like to know what i'm getting in advance beautiful but it was completely kept a secret so when it arrived i opened up the box and was this beautiful fuchsia pink oat couture dress with these incredible pleats laying it on the table you really start to appreciate the level of work and craftsmanship that has gone into this garment and it's quite a lot of fabric on it not only the silk taffeta but inside it's lined with a very soft pink teal and then under there a very hard and even harder tool it really is a work of art and you almost have to just stand and be really arrested by its beauty even if it does come apart i think we will just replete the section that we need yeah stressful but it'll be okay it was very exciting this idea of reworking and recontextualizing another designer's pieces because it speaks to the conversations we're having already around this idea of overproduction you know instead of making new things let's look at what we already have and try and upcycle and reinterpret and change that the look that tab sent me was the very classic contemporary suit done with the blankets from his history his heritage i love the idea of reinterpreting i even more love the idea of creating a moment between two identities to culture i'm italian we are here in roma and we're working on a work of a human that comes from another part of the world and i wanted to get this heritage into my own culture which is the culture from a conversation always comes something something different especially when when you talk with people that are different from from you that have different stories of course i still feel that fashion is a self-expression is a language actually the the things that impressed me the most was this letter the one that tebby sent me he says something that is very moving to me and parallel tribe called the bassot and blankets form a very big part of our culture so i wanted to light this fabric but also this his culture and so that was the very starting point of this collaboration work or interpretation whatever you are calling i often say i'm not a great verbal communicator so to make up for that i use my clothes in a way to almost speak on my behalf i really wanted to take this out couture piece and move it into my universe my context and especially my way of working which is more in a really to wear context so for the dress i'm thinking it's going to break my heart but i'm going to completely unpick it remove the skirt part remove the top part and use one of my patterns to re-cut it as a very elevated trench coat and with the leftover fabric i think we're going to create a wide leg pair of pants with a very generous cuff on it and a matching shirt the cape is the the purest expression of future because it's so simple so pure and it's done with uh just cut and super knot decoration we deconstructed the suit actually and we we are applying the suit the the fabric on top of the cape giving shape to the cape but using the blanket as an embroidery saw between the cape as expression of couture and the blanket that is expression of debbie's culture i think this creates a conversation and a good tension between our history and his heritage i was very excited to work with pia paolo on this project i deeply respect what pierre paulo does as a as a designer i think his relationship to color his relationship to proportion is so fresh and i think he's certainly contributed to the changing conversation around what old creature is i love it clip there and it creates a really beautiful shaped hat i thought tepe has something to say he's from south africa which is i think it's difficult it's not exactly in the middle of fashion i think we share same values because talking about identities being faithful to who you are trying to face another world i think it's it's interesting i think the connection has to be human first of everything actually i don't have idea of what tev will do i sent him a very say classic in volume future tough address and i hope that he will handle it in his own way i think i've been respectful of his work but i've worked with my own instruments and i hope he will do the same i expect that he's going to do the opposite of what i'm doing so taking something uh and ready to it and moving it into his very high old couture universe i'm almost doing the opposite in a lot of ways taking this incredible piece that he's created at valentino and moving it into ready to wear where more people essentially can't see themselves in it what i did there was a exactly the mix between creating something which was the connection between your uh identity and my own identity it was actually quite intimidating because it arrived in like a very big metal flight case with not only one but like two keys but once we opened it you really get such a even bigger appreciation of like okay turn what uh pia pilot does because you know it's it's precision to look absolutely effortless you know and everything like nothing was out of place and i think the exciting challenge with it was using absolutely everything the zips the corsetry um the construction the tube i felt like if i was going to un-pick the beautiful cleats um on the waist i was going to just get struck down by lightning so we just preserved all the plisay pleats and moved it into the armhole and then the white tube that was inside the dress um we took for dying with this incredible dye master called paul in the south of johannesburg and we matched the pink to the exact level um as the as the original fabric on top so there was a lot of there was a lot to play with it was a lot of fabric right it was a lot of memory as i told you i love the the fact that this this fabric was originally a blanket and was it was definitely part of your culture i i wanted to be to yes to light the your identity your culture and your heritage with something that could be uh more like italian kind of cucu it's like a melting between the two the cape is a symbol of you know italian madonnas the renaissance culture and it's also a symbol of cujul because it is the purest shape in couture the fabric was the the starting point of the process and so what we did was to cut the the fabric in order to give it a different placement to a light the the fabric itself so i used a different fabric because there were not as much to to yeah i wanted to use the fabric as the embroidery itself or the of the game i'm very happy of you know this this the connection we created because i felt that even in yours there's something something that came out from our meeting and that's it so it's not something that i could do alone or nor you could do alone so yeah it's the result of the meeting of two humans which i like in my own work i really do love throwing opposites together just that idea of things that shouldn't even be together just like being meshed into one thing i think that's where a certain magic can happen the final look reflects the respectful conversation we we have in a way it reflects the roots of table his tribe it became a suit and now he had a new transformation becoming a cape because of how i grew up i used to be so embarrassed about everything around me but like i've made it my own personal mission to almost take that and move it into the echelons of luxury you know i think people have really stale ideas about what african fashion is i just want to show people that we're very nuanced so it's like a cape in a facing contemporary and it's of course the end of this path we had with tabeth i just hope that tebbe will recognize himself i think when you explore collaborative efforts like that and you test things that are very disparate i think when they come together it forms something new altogether something challenging and i think this project was exactly that i'm very happy i have to say that what i saw because at the end the challenge was to to reflect two stories to identities two big cultures melting together into something that could reflect both together you

West African Peanut Sauce with Udon Noodles - How To
https://www.youtube.com/embed/liYKQlhJ-CM
♪♪ -Hey, what's up, everyone? I'm J.J. Johnson. I'm the chef and founder of Fieldtrip in Harlem. I'm making West African peanut sauce with some udon noodles. It's gonna be super delicious and you're gonna want to cook it for everybody you know. I'm going to make the peanut sauce. Small dice on the onion. I'm going to use half of this onion. So, listen, there's five mother sauces right now. Tomato, bechamel, veloute, espagnole, hollandaise. And that's how you learn the cuisines of those regions of the world, through the mother sauces, in culinary school; I want culinary schools to add the West African peanut sauce and then culinary schools from around the world will be learning what West African food is all about.
And that's where it starts, right with the mother sauces. I don't like to peel my carrot. I like to taste a carrot before I peel it. If it tastes nice and sweet with the skin on, it's great. I'm going to small dice these carrots too. And the flavor here is gonna be a little bit spicy, a little bit sweet. You don't need them to be the perfect size because you're gonna blend this all up at the end. So, some oil. Onions -- have my pan at a medium heat. And add some salt just cause I don't want to get any color on my onions. Sweat those out for thirty seconds. I'm gonna throw my carrots in. I'm gonna add salt again. I'm gonna let these go. -Smash my garlic. Gonna small-dice this here too. Normally I would add garlic in first, but I want the garlic just a little bit of heat because I want the spiciness in the garlic.
When you talk about mother sauces, they come from a specific region in the world. And none of the mother sauces include Africa, which is one of the largest continents in the world. You learn cuisine through mother sauces so if there's no mother sauce that is taking us through West Africa, then how can you understand the food? So a little bit of celery, gonna sweat this down, and add a little bit more oil, a little bit more of salt. I love seasoning in layer, so everything is getting seasoned evenly. So I seasoned my carrots, my celery, my onions. Nobody's being disrespected in the pan. Tomato. Again, another medium dice, or small dice. I want the seeds and the guts. I want everything from the tomato in there for that flavor. Plum tomatoes are good, good balance of water and sweet flavor.
And then add some cumin, not powdered cumin, cumin seeds. I went this cumin, the seeds to pop, and you get all that nice flavor from that fresh cumin when it hits the oil. This is really smelling amazing. So good. So a couple of keys here. I'm going to add in the tomato paste first and I'm going to pincage this, and you know pincaging means separating the oil in the fat, but really cooking the paste to ignite the flavor so it doesn't taste like canned tomato paste.
I'm gonna let that cook for a couple minutes. I'm gonna get my peanut butter ready. Unsweetened peanut butter. And it's okay if the oil separates on the top. That's some good peanut butter. If your peanut butter doesn't separate, you should question the peanut butter maker, because peanut has oil in it and it should separate because it's... ...it's a liquid. Now, I'm going to add in my peanut butter. My history with the sauce is I cooked in Ghana in 2011. That's where my inspiration has always come from. I look through food to the West African lens everywhere I go when I travel. The next largest population of West Africans in the world is Brazil. And in this certain region in Brazil, the Japanese and the West Africans live together and they eat stewy meets with pasta or noodles.
So this was my inspiration of, you know, doing research and really seeing that these cultures really have an influence from West Africa from a food perspective. And that's what I celebrate. So you can start to see the peanut butter and the oil starting to separate. That's really good stuff. I'm going to turn this down so we don't burn the peanut butter. I'm going to add in the tomatoes and add in a little bit of my stock. I'm gonna stir this up, bring it to a simmer, as you can see. I'm gonna add the rest of the stock, or a little bit more stock just to see when it reduces. Gonna add a bay leaf. I'm gonna cut this bird's eye chili in half for some spice, with the seeds and the stem, because the stem is the spiciest part of the pepper in any pepper -- I learned that from a grandmother in her kitchen in Ghana when they were making their hot sauce.
And when she would add the stems in and blend it up, the fragrance and the aroma and the spice would just be at another level, so... Okay, let me add in the cilantro. Give it this nice, herbaceous flavor. I don't like to take the stems off. I think a lot of us remove the stems from our herbs and the stems have really great flavor. I'm gonna add that in. Gonna bring it to a hard simmer. Let it go for about 10 to 15 minutes. I'm going to make the udon noodles now, or the base for the udon noodles. So this time I'm using a yellow onion. And a little more oil here; salt. Okay, carrots. The food past of West African food around the world doesn't come from a celebrated moment in life.
There was West African slaves, they were taken around the world. When they didn't want to do the work, then there was other cultures that came in -- so you had the migrant Chinese workers, you had the migrant Vietnamese workers, the migrant Japanese workers that filled in to do the work because West African slaves refused to do it. I researched those places and I figure out how to make super crave-able amazing food around it. Let me check this West African peanut sauce. Ooh, yeah, look at that. It's coming together nice. I'm going to blend this sauce. I'm gonna blanch off my udon noodles. So you'll just drop them into some hot simmering water, doesn't need to be like a hard boil, for about two minutes. At a young age my grandmother injected DNA -- like, food DNA into me, like, I didn't watch cartoons at a young age, I was, like, in the kitchen with her.
I don't know if I was really cooking. I was there peeling carrots and onions, supposedly. My kids, they're in the kitchen with me all the time. I believe that if you cook with your kids in the kitchen, they will eat better because they feel like they're involved. You're able to teach your children the world through food. So, some udon noodles here, some peanut sauce. Ooh! Look at that! Little salt... Black pepper. The final touches -- some edamame. ♪♪ Just going to add a little bit of fresh lemon juice here.
Brighten it up. All right. Let's plate this up. A little bit of these edamame on top. ♪♪ Some Thai basil, little bit of mint, a little bit of basil flavor. It's going to be creamy. It's going to be like, goodness. Good. Great nutty flavor. You get a little bit of the cumin, a little heat from the bird's eye chili. And the basil goes so good with the peanut butter, get a little bit of that mint flavor, a little bit of the -- that nice sweetness. So good that you need to click the recipe below and come uptown to Fieldtrip between 115th and 116th on Malcolm X Boulevard, right in front of the 2 and the 3 train, and you can see me there.
♪♪ ♪♪.

Afrobeats is the Nigerian sound taking over pop music
https://www.youtube.com/embed/RzT-NqqazDw
The individual vocal singing is Wizkid. He'' s a Nigerian singer. As well as this moment, when Wizkid sings on this track, was a huge deal for a musical genre It'' s called Afrobeats. It ' s high-energy, autotune-heavy, with a constant percussive beat as well as a kind of electro-hip-hop sound. It'' s likewise way even more than that. pop music all over the world. It'' s the tale of Africa ' s social impact, He'' s one of the most significant Afrobeats stars in the globe. Today, SARZ is one of the top Afrobeats producers out there, as well as he'' s a huge component of why Afrobeats appears the means it does. Afrobeat was Fela Kuti'' s large band, jazz-style, Afrobeats is entirely different. It'' s electronic, catchy; the noise of urban millennial Africa. As well as there'' s likewise this, and also certainly the kick drums. it simply made every little thing integrated. Also, there are keys. And also, include her vocals to it, as well as we have Maradona."" So, as African as this appears, it also appears. universal, like any person can hear this ... - ... And associate with it? - And also connect to it. As well as for me, that'' s a winner. This is The Beat FM, a London radio station. that plays nearly completely Afrobeats. - We'' re still in the UK.This is Afrohits on The Beat London 103.6 FM. Maintain it on The Beat! Allow'' s go!- As soon as it came, it simply took control of. DBoy and also Shopsy Doo are DJs here. And also they state this noise is anywhere in London. - The only songs they intend to hear their events, at their clubs,. at their occasions, is African prominent songs, a.k.a. Afrobeats. The Beat FM is possessed by a Nigerian firm. Their sis terminal is one of the greatest stations in Lagos. And if you ask these people why Afrobeats is removing. Bigger than the songs itself. I went back to Nigeria when I was 11 years old. Afrobeats faucets right into one of the most loyal. and prevalent fan bases on the planet: the Nigerian diaspora.Any area on the planet where there are Nigerians, Afrobeats allows.- The Nigerian diaspora is without a doubt one of the most essential. part of promoting Afrobeats to the remainder of the globe. Afrobeats has only been able to spread out around the globe as a result of YouTube,. and also social media, and streaming systems like Spotify as well as iTunes. As well as that ' s done something actually crucial. for'Afrobeats artists back in Nigeria. It ' s permitted them to in fact make cash from selling their songs.- Do you have an iTunes account? - No, I put on ' t. -Exactly. Spotify isn ' t available in the majority of Africa.'And also Nigeria is among great deals of countries where Apple ' s. settlement regulations make iTunes nearly difficult to utilize. The major songs circulation system in Nigeria is this: Road hawkers offering pirated music.These individuals can get you practically any type of. of the most popular Afrobeats tracks.
- You have music? In Lagos, Africa ' s biggest city, thousands. of CDs like these are scorched everyday.'And when it isn ' t taking place in the roads, it ' s happening. online, where lots of young people download complimentary music. -Provide me Tiwa Savage. And while it ' s casual as well as disorganized, it ' s quite reliable. The trouble is that it ' s awful for artists. Also as Nigeria ' s music scene flourishes, the. Or else, you can just truly generate income. from shows, wedding celebrations, ringback tones. - The origin and also the heart of the music is in Africa. -Twenty years from currently, you ' ll have appears coming from every edge. And also that ' s when we ' ll have our sector. Eze desires to develop a music distribution network in Africa that ' s so strong, music won ' t have to travel to London, or to New york city, for artists to make cash. African musicians can generate income selling their music in Africa. As well as for Universal, this is larger than just Afrobeats. -We have many various sounds, so numerous different. markets, and we still need to connect to every other. Eze claims a continent with greater than 54 nations, with over. a billion people shouldn ' t be reduced to selling one noise. And that ' s what Afrobeats has actually unlocked. There ' s a whole lot extra going on musically in Africa than just Afrobeats. Due to the fact that if the increase of Afrobeats proves anything, it ' s that markets from Lagos to London are prepared for even more. And additionally sign up for the Quartz network for even more video clips similar to this one. And also when it isn ' t taking place in the streets, it ' s happening. And also while it ' s informal and unstructured, it ' s pretty effective. And also that ' s when we ' ll have our market. Eze desires to construct up a songs circulation network in Africa that ' s so strong, songs won ' t have to take a trip to London, or to New York, for artists to make money. There ' s a lot much more going on musically in Africa than simply Afrobeats.
