Ultimate hip hop

To celebrate Grandmaster Flash taking over the 6 Mix for Pioneers month, Tom and the 6 Music listeners compile the ultimate hip hop playlist.

To celebrate Grandmaster Flash taking over the 6 Mix next week for their Pioneers month, Tom and the 6 Music listeners comply the ultimate hip hop playlist.

Starting with Grandmaster Flash and working through the Bronx and the rest of New York in the late 1970s and 1980s across to the West Coast, Tom gives listeners the opportunity to salute their favourite lyricists, beat makers and everyone else who has inspired or learnt from this revolutionary music.
