words: Kari Rosenberg Recently, a close friend – we’ll call her ‘Bridget’ – was traumatised while taking a toilet break at work. No need for euphemism here, she was taking a shit. Or at least trying to. Having sussed out an isolated loo for her daily turding needs weeks ago, she wasn’t accustomed to having […]

All the time, people tell me I’m lucky because my hair is ‘sooooooooo straight!’ I understand where they’re coming from. I leave the house at super quick speed each morning and when I return my hair looks almost identical to how it did when I left. With a crop, there’s very little that can go […]

EIC is nay a music blog, but that doesn’t stop us being well a-ware of Brixton rude-voice Jessie Ware. She looks Spanish but hasn’t got a margarita making gene in her. This week, Jessie’s tune with Bristol dubstepper – JOKER – [The Vision (Let me breathe)] – reached silly popularity levels. Zane Lowe’s Hottest Record […]
