In 2020 the Brixton Project worked with artists Create Not Destroy on the now iconic Ty mural in Valentia Place. Ty was a much-loved local MC, producer and hip-hop artist who sadly lost his life to coronavirus.  Ty, born Benedict Chijioke, lived in Brixton for many years. The huge mural serves as a permanent memorial to a local hero and legend. Indeed, his legacy lives on through the Pass the Torch Foundation which supports independent black music artists with annual bursaries in Ty’s name.
