Rejected petition Erect a Sculpture of Richard Kylea 'Wiley' Cowie in Bow, E3 London

In 2013 More than 2,000 people joined a campaign to erect a public statue of Wiley, widely considered the Godfather of Grime music, in London. The petition was rejected.
5 years on, and Wiley’s influence has grown ever more significant and his status in urban culture has been written into history
