Netflix’s latest release, “Champion,” has captivated audiences with its compelling drama, created by renowned author Candice Carty-Williams, celebrated for her acclaimed novel “Queenie.” This gripping series, now available for streaming in the United Kingdom and beyond, immerses viewers in a narrative enriched by an ensemble cast, including dynamic Jamaican entertainer Chi Ching Ching.
The series, accompanied by a standout soundtrack, features performances by its stars, including Malcolm Kamulete, Corz, Ray BLK, and the ‘Roast or Fry’ hitmaker. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the project draws inspiration from the vibrant tapestry of Black British and Caribbean music, reflecting the creative vision of Carty-Williams, a native of South London. The authenticity of the compilation was paramount in ensuring a genuine representation of the series’ thematic essence.
For Carty-Williams, the music component was particularly significant. “Working on the music for the show was the best part for me,” she expressed. “Books were the beginning, and TV is now this part, but music has been the biggest part of my life.”
Noteworthy contributions to the soundtrack include those of Ghetts and Ray BLK, the latter also assuming the role of Honey in the series, serving as Music Executives and credited writers. Their involvement is complemented by a host of other talents, such as M1llionz, Shola Ama, and Debbie, each contributing their unique expertise. The collaborative efforts of credited producer Ceebeaats further enriched the sonic landscape of “Champion.”
“Champion” weaves a compelling narrative, drawing viewers into a world of drama and poignant storytelling, promising an engaging viewing experience with its blend of seasoned performers and emerging talents.
