Afrika Bambaataa!

Huey is joined by a legend, and one of the godfathers of hip hop, Afrika Bambaataa. He'll be talking about 40 years of the Universal Zulu Nation, and playing the tracks that shaped his career.

You can expect to hear stories of the legendary Hoe Avenue Peace Meeting, where New York's street gangs gathered to organise a city wide truce, and how pioneering DJs like Kool Herc created a new sound that exploded out of the Bronx. A sound that we now know as Hip Hop.

Huey will be exploring Bambaataa's influences and legacy and so you can expect to hear tracks by Kraftwerk, Yellow Magic Orchestra, Hashim, Cybotron, Rage Against The Machine, Gary Numan, and KRS-One.
