UK Rap, Grime and Hip-Hop

Jools looks back at some of the incredible performances from the UK’s finest stars of rap, grime and hip-hop, many of whom made their TV debuts on the show. From a trilogy of rap and garage acts in 2002 including So Solid Crew, Ms. Dynamite and The Streets to grime pioneers Kano, Skepta and Ghetts, and new stars of the scene who soon became global names like Stormzy, Dave and Little Simz. \n\nThis programme also looks back at some of the artists filmed in unique locations for the show during the pandemic such as Pa Salieu and Mahalia at London’s Conway Hall, Enny at the renowned Church Studios and Berwyn in his mum’s kitchen. You can also catch performances from UK artists like Birmingham’s Lady Leshurr, Northampton’s Slowthai and Manchester’s Bugzy Malone.
