PODCAST: JOURNEY INTO HIP HOP
Jon Saxon was born six months before hip hop, in 1973, and was raised on Bromyard Road in the rural-England market town of Tenbury Wells, Worcestershire – 5539 miles away from hip hop’s Sedgwick Avenue in the Bronx. The two would eventually meet in front of the high school bike sheds 12 years later. This podcast charts Jon’s musical journey towards that very day, and celebrates the relationship that endures nearly 40 years on with the help of old radio recordings, a living room full of vinyl, and a raft of ridiculous childhood memories.
EPISODE 004: We say hello again to 14-year-old Jon – this time for the second half of his 1987 – for yet another 12 months of firsts: from hearing Chitty Chitty Bang Bang being cut over the top of a 1986 rap track, hearing the alarming ins and outs of LA gang culture aired by King T on John Peel’s programme, to the exciting launch of a brand new Friday night radio show packed full of hip hop.
