Episode 79: 1999

Recorded at Eggslut restaurant, Portobello Road, Notting Hill. This week we continue with part 2 of our 3-part run recorded at Eggslut. While working their way through the menu, Reg, Baba, Owen and Uzo discuss the 'racist raps' complaints made against Dave at this year's Brits. Was his performance really underpinned by racism? Which part of Britain actually made the complaints? How have the Brits responded to being called out for under-representing Black artists? They also discuss the death of US Rap star Popsmoke and the intersection between social media, success in music, street culture and how it's all intertwining to lead to such tragedies. On a lighter note, the boys also confess their first-ever TV presenter crushes and discuss why 1999 was one of the best years for film, ever.
