Romesh celebrates the women of rap with Clara Amfo.

Romesh is joined by Clara Amfo to celebrate the women of rap - from genre-defining legends like Missy Elliott and Queen Latifah to newer stars on the block like Little Simz.

For Hip Hop's channel swimmers, scuba divers and those just thinking about buying some goggles… Romesh is here with an episode all about the women of Hip Hop.

Let's finally put aside any idea that the genre is a boy’s club as Radio 1 DJ and former Strictly contestant, Clara Amfo joins Romesh to chat about some of the finest women rappers out there - from Queen Latifah to Megan Thee Stallion to Little Simz.

Clara sneaks round the bounce to return for the Sounds Afterparty and takes control of the playlist - selecting some lesser known bangers from greats like Eve and Lisa 'Left Eye’ Lopes, then lays out her hot tips for the future.

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
