Since we started 19 years ago, east London has remained our home, and we\u2019re as focused on the people who we walk past each day as on those we cover around the world.<\/p>\n<p>To celebrate the city that has forged us, we\u2019ve put together a digital-only special magazine for our Apple News subscribers, focusing on the best stories of community and culture that London has to offer. On the cover are Krept &amp; Konan \u2013 true London success stories \u2013 who have had to overcome loss and adversity to become UK rap\u2019s most definitive double act.<\/p>\n<p>Then we have Rise United, the ESEA+ football club forged out of pandemic hate, who are now one arm of a rising burst of Asian creativity and community in the UK capital, as well as a micro report into London\u2019s queer line dancing scene at a time when country music is having a global renaissance. We also take readers into Hackney\u2019s Pho Mile \u2013 a stone\u2019s throw from Huck\u2019s Shoreditch base \u2013 and revisit its history of local action, and there\u2019s\u00a0much more to dive into in the magazine.<\/p>\n<p>Check it out <a href=\"https:\/\/apple.news\/Inis8NfouQcO5WvSECYaMtw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>, and do please <a href=\"https:\/\/apple.news\/TYzswnhTsTCC6hvomSlUsFQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">follow Huck<\/a> on Apple News+, to make sure the best of our stories from London and beyond reaches your feed every day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a hyperconnected digital world, where we transport ourselves from overhearing conversations taking place on the New York subway to the inside of a celebrity\u2019s kitchen with the drag of a thumb, it\u2019s easy to forget to take in our immediate surroundings.
