LATEST STORY - Sean Price: The contender

"We used to sell crack, and listen to the radio all the time...Mr Magic, Red Alert, Chuck Chillout. And when we'd be out selling, my man would beat on the wall, we'd start rhyming, joking around.

LATEST COLUMN - Better pay, more explosions

Preventing a young girl from entering hospital, then continuing to toyi toyi around her as she begins to have an epileptic fit is bad enough. Entering operating theatres while the patient is under anaesthetic and dragging away the nurses, forcing them to join the strike, is so cosmically stupid that it makes me want to shoot myself on the off chance that I ever encounter these people and subsequently die from a catastrophic loss of brain cells.

LATEST SHOW - 01/09/10

Much as we'd love to say we have the new single from the Foreign Exchange, we don't - mostly because it probably hasn't been recorded yet! But they do have a new album coming out (and are now a Grammy-nominated group, trivia fans) and so in their honour we're spinning one of their finest joints: The Answer, off their genuinely timeless debut Connected. The second the new single drops, we'll be on it like a fat man on a buffet.
