Hip Hop Saved My Life with Romesh Ranganathan

On this week’s very special show, acting A-lister Rafe Spall joins Romesh for a one-on-one chat about his hip hop journey. From an early obsession with some of the UK’s rap legends, to discovering The Roots and Rawkus Records, having a go at running his own label and bonding with CASISDEAD over Kate Bush. Banger!

He’s a stand-up comedian, radio host, TV presenter and life-long hip hop head who we’ve been trying to get on the show for years. And now he’s finally here - the one and only Nish Kumar!

Actor, writer, director and co-star of People Just Do Nothing Steve Stamp joins Rom and Rumaj to chat PJ & Duncan, Wu-Tang, Tyler The Creator, owning one of Questlove’s drumsticks and meeting Pharrell. It’s a Kurupt FM banger!

We’re honored to be joined this week by one of the hottest names in broadcasting right now - DJ, presenter, author and lead cultural curator at Apple Music: Ashley ‘Dotty’ Charles. Hold tight for one banger of a show!

We’re joined by the one and only Donae'o - a rapper, singer, songwriter and producer who’s been a major player in London’s garage, grime, UK funky and Afrobeats scenes for the past two decades. Alongside his many solo projects, his enviable list of collaborators includes Giggs, Fredo, Dizzee Rascal and JME.

We’re back for HHSML Series 4, and to kick things off in style we have two amazing guests for you: UK super-duo Barney Artist and Mr Jukes. Alongside all the regular hip hop chat, they give us the lowdown on their brand new album, The Locket. It’s a certified banger!
