Third Country Radio Episode 40: Rap It Up

Third Country Radio is joining in on a summer-long celebration of hip-hop and rap! Over the last fifty years, the genre has gone through many styles and permutations - and that's before we think about how the music has changed when exported around the world! We talk all about the impact of hip-hop on a national and global stage, while also playing great tracks by De La Soul, Beastie Boys and Black Star.
