As a portrait photographer, her work as been featured in <i>Vogue</i>, <i>i-D</i> and <i>Elle</i>. As a director, she has worked with various brands and artists including Spotify, Nike, Skepta and Jorja Smith. Rose is one of few female photographers who have documented the Grime scene, and in 2016 she published <i>This is Grime</i> with journalist Hattie Collins.\n\nThis photograph was taken at Visions nightclub in Dalston, east London, in 2016 while filming the music video for British MC and rapper Skepta’s single ‘Man’ from his fourth album, <i>Konnichiwa</i>. Skepta has been a notable figure in Grime since its nascent days in east London, as both a solo MC and as a member of collectives Meridian Dan, Roll Deep and co-founder of Boy Better Know. Skepta was later instrumental in the resurgence of Grime in the mid-2010s, cementing its return to the mainstream as he won the 2016 Mercury Prize Award for <i>Konnichiwa</i>. \n\nIn this image, Skepta can be seen in the middle of the crowd, with fellow rappers Chip and Lethal B to the right. Chip, formerly known as Chipmunk, is a British rapper whose debut album <i>I Am Chipmunk </i>(2009) featured four Top 10 singles, earning him multiple MOBO nominations and wins. Lethal Bizzle, also known as Lethal B, gained recognition as a member of the Grime collective More Fire Crew and later as a solo MC. His solo debut single, ‘Pow!’ (2004) has become an anthem within the genre. \n\nThis photograph is from the series <i>This is Grime</i>.","physicalDescription":"A black and white photograph taken in a nightclub.
