BBC Radio 2 - Romesh Ranganathan: For the Love of Hip Hop, The one where Trevor Nelson returns!

Romesh is joined by DJ, Hip Hop head and... national treasure? Trevor Nelson.

Fellow Radio 2 DJ Trevor Nelson re-joins Romesh to see how he’s getting on, chat Hip Hop... and tease him quite a bit!

Whether you’ve got strong Hip Hop roots, green shoots coming through or your love of the genre is waiting to sprout…Romesh is here to water the rap garden — and this time, he’s joined by fellow Radio 2 DJ and UK music legend, Trevor Nelson.

Trevor returns for Season 2 to chat Hip Hop, select tunes and help Romesh with a mystery task… (*collective Oooo*)
He also admits to booing LL Cool J for being soppy and tying up Snoop Dogg’s shoes. Intrigued?

And if you can make it to the Afterparty on Sounds, the excitement continues as Romesh and Trevor play a brand new, old school game — Biggie or Smalls. Think Play Your Cards Right with rapper’s heights!

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
