Filmed over seven years and not available to watch online, Street Smart explores how American hip-hop gave a generation of young people in Britain a voice through decades of struggle, creativity and change.

Told through rare and uncensored interviews, the film features artists and figures from across hip-hop and music culture, including Ghostface Killah, Method Man and Statik Selektah, alongside photographers, filmmakers and musicians whose work has connected them with the likes of Kendrick Lamar, Jay-Z, The Notorious B.I.G., Aaliyah, Nas, J. Cole, Freddie Gibbs and Giggs.

The film also includes rare behind-the-scenes footage of all the living members of Wu-Tang Clan together in the UK – the only footage of its kind captured in more than 20 years.

As part of Urban Kingdom’s 15th anniversary celebrations, Docks Academy is one of a limited number of venues selected to host a special screening of the film.

The screening runs for approximately 80 minutes, with a soundtrack of classic hip-hop keeping things going afterwards. Grab a drink, watch the film on the big screen and stick around for the music afterwards.

Nirvana Tribute

Comments Off on Nirvana Tribute
Saturday 7th November 2026
Doors 7pm | Curfew 11pm
Ages 14+ (U18s to be accompanied)
Advance Tickets | £20 + Fees

The audience for this show will be standing

This world-renowned tribute has toured in more than a dozen countries across North America, Europe and Asia, and has won over fans and received high praise from audiences and critics alike.

Despite disbanding in 1994 following the tragic passing of frontman Kurt Cobain, Nirvana have remained a staple of music and continues to influence the music world even nearly 30 years after their disbandment. Songs like ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’, ‘Come as You Are’, ‘Lithium’, and ‘Heart Shaped Box’ have all been picked up by new generations of fans and cherished by those who were around during the late ’80s and into the ’90s when Nirvana dominated the world of music.

Their authentic take on Nirvana is fronted by Jon O’Connor, who faithfully assumes the role of Kurt Cobain and captivates audiences from the get-go. They’ve even caught the attention of Nirvana’s original Drummer, Aaron Burckhard, who’s given them his approval, stating that they are “the closest to the real thing”. Nirvana Tribute carefully respects and continues the legacy of one of the most beloved bands of all time.

“The closest you will ever come to hearing Cobain’s voice in person” – Loudwire

“Nirvana Tribute took stage & tore the roof off” – KERRANG!

Space live at Docks Academy

Comments Off on Space live at Docks Academy

Liverpool cult favourites Space bring their dark-humoured, hook-laden classics to Docks Academy, Grimsby, on Friday 6 November!

Space are a band from Liverpool, England, who formed in 1992 initially as a trio of Tommy Scott (vocals, bass, guitar), Jamie Murphy (vocals, guitar) and Jamie Island (drums), who was later replaced by Andy Parle. Keyboard player Franny Griffiths joined the line-up a year later, and the band signed to Gut Records in 1995, eventually rising to prominence with hit singles such as “Female of the Species”, “Me and You Versus the World”, “Neighbourhood”, “Avenging Angels” and “The Ballad of Tom Jones”, the latter a duet with Cerys Matthews of Catatonia.

Space pursued an eclectic sound dubbed “queasy listening” by critics, embracing electronica and sampling in their work and drawing from genres as diverse as hip hop, techno, post-punk, ska, lounge music, easy listening and film scores, the result of the differing tastes between band members. The group were also noted for their deliberately tongue-in-cheek, dark humoured lyrics inspired by films, which frequently deal with topics such as serial killers, failed relationships, social outcasts, and mental illness. Whilst Space’s eclecticism and camp humour polarised listeners and critics, they have maintained a devoted cult following.

Space experienced several line up changes, with Scott being the only consistent member. Their first two albums, Spiders (1996) and Tin Planet (1998), achieved great success and went platinum in the UK, along with scoring eight UK Top 40 singles.
