How The UK Changed Hip Hop Forever - A new BBC Radio 1Xtra podcast series to mark the 50th anniversary of hip-hop, presented by Ashley Walters from Top Boy. Each episode of the series, with all episodes currently able to listen to, looks at a different major moment with the help of a contributor, including Tiffany Calver, Estelle and music exec Cookie Pryce. Similar to the BBC Radio 6 Music podcast on Britpop that we featured in this newsletter two weeks ago, the series also unearths the BBC’s rich music and interviews archive.
