Ep.131 - #UKBHM 2021: Skepta
On Ep.131 of DITD: Continuing our UK Black History Month celebrations with a retrospective on Skepta.
There are those artists that are right on the frontlines of cultural phenomena. But there aren't many that have been in several like Skepta. From the growth of Grime, to the gold rush of the late 00s/early 10s, to the complete cultural reset of Black British music. Skepta was there for all of it.
