“Unravels the complicated calculus between hip-hop and its offshoots (UK garage, grime, drill) against a backdrop of resistance (the Met police’s highly controversial Form 696/Operation Domain policies) with mathematical precision and a genuine fans warmth”

MOJO (4 STARS)

“Kane builds bridges in a rich musical universe full of heroes and villains—and plot twists. With an inimitable style, he merges culture high and low to bring new meaning to the music. What Do You Call It? is a landmark tome for UK rap music.”

Wax Poetics


DJ Dibnah’s musical journey started in lo-fi bands on the east London pub circuit of the 00s, inspired by bands like Pavement and the Silver Jews. In recent years he has developed an interest in electronic beats and remained true to his teenage love for hip-hop. His mix for the release of What Do You Call It? takes in classic era Britcore, and early 00s UK hip-hop, together with a few unexpected contemporary heaters.
