This week we assess the meaning of the word longevity in relation to rap, who are great examples of longevity and how it can both help and harm artists. We explore the development of music videos in the UK from the past to the present, from Channel U to GRM Daily. 

Then we ponder what could have been for grime collective Nasty Crew, once home to the likes of Kano, Ghetts and D Double E. In-between, we share what's been on our rotation this week, show Ice Spice some love, and more!

In our first episode of 2023, we turn our attention to a UK legend, the genre-bending, indomitable artist known as Ms Dynamite! An artist who, in the beginning of the 2000s, arrived with such force that she rewrote the rules on how to be a musician from the UK, taking her blend of UK garage, R&B, ragga and rap to the world and back.

We get into how we discovered her, how she transcended her UK garage origins, her catalogue - including her 2002 Mercury Prize winning album 'A Little Deeper' - her messages, impact, legacy and contemporary artists and producers we would love to see her collaborate with.
