Jamil GS

In 2018, Globetrotter caught up with Copenhagen-based photographer Jamil GS during his trip to New Delhi, India. At the time, his “American Royalty” exhibit just made its Asian debut at the inaugural HGStreet festival.

The exhibition featured a selection of iconic photos of hip-hop legends—Jay-Z, Outkast, Mary J. Blige, Chuck D, Diddy and many more— that Jamil has taken throughout his decades-spanning career. Relive our interview where Jamil talked about connecting to a new audience in Asia through his photos, the influence of his music on his works and more.
