If you're looking for a upper class gentleman rapper with a ukulele, you've come to the right place! Mr B the Gentleman Rhymer joins Shaun to celebrate Chap Hop.

Shaun does wonders for your ears from his impeccable taste in music, to big, small but always interesting guests. Shaun is joined live in studio by Matt Everitt for an irreverent take on the day's music news. And as for the soundtrack? We're talking...The Smiths, The Beatles, Friendly Fires, Bon Iver, Steve Mason, A Tribe Called Quest, Bowie, Prince, MGMT... need we go on?

Shaun looks ahead to this weekend's St Georges Day with a special musical guest. Mr B The Gentleman Rhymer joins Shaun on Thursday and performs his own style of hip hip - Chap Hop. Mr. B raps or "rhymes" about high society, pipe smoking and cricket while playing the banjolele. His debut album "Flattery Not Included" was released in 2008 for the Grot Music label, which includes the track "Chap-Hop History" which is a Received Pronunciation reworking of some well known hip-hop classics.

Should be a corker, join Keavo from 7am.
