APPLAUSE | 0:16:34 | 0:16:39 | |
And now Dj Target please, again. | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
And your sort of job description says you are a DJ and taste maker. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:52 | |
Yes, I guess you could say that. | 0:16:55 | 0:16:57 | |
What does taste maker mean? | 0:16:57 | 0:16:58 | |
I guess I am one of those DJs, I play a lot of music first, | 0:16:58 | 0:17:02 | |
I am ahead of a lot of DJs, and I think a lot of people | 0:17:02 | 0:17:05 | |
look to my shows and what I do | 0:17:05 | 0:17:06 | |
as somewhere where they can make their taste. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:09 | |
So you are telling people what they ought to like. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |
I'm giving them a choice out of some really good stuff, basically. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:16 | |
I just know what I like, and I feel like I play good | 0:17:16 | 0:17:20 | |
music on the radio so people gravitate towards that. | 0:17:20 | 0:17:23 | |
Are you one of those who, if you say that this is going to be big, | 0:17:23 | 0:17:28 | |
or good, or whatever, it will be? Do you...? | 0:17:28 | 0:17:32 | |
I would say I have got a pretty good strike rate of calling out | 0:17:32 | 0:17:36 | |
things ahead of time, so yeah, I would say that. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:40 | |
The reason I play very strong... | 0:17:40 | 0:17:42 | |
Literally from acoustic music all the way | 0:17:42 | 0:17:44 | |
through to stuff that would only scare you out of the studio | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
if I played it to you but, yeah, lots of great UK... | 0:17:47 | 0:17:50 | |
Just give me an idea, a quick example of the stuff that'd scare me | 0:17:50 | 0:17:53 | |
out of this studio. | 0:17:53 | 0:17:54 | |
I can't really do an impression of it. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:56 | |
Heavy, hard, basslines, thumping drums, synths, | 0:17:56 | 0:18:02 | |
stuff that you might not... | 0:18:02 | 0:18:03 | |
Sounds like everything I have ever heard on Radio 1Xtra, really. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:06 | |
There you go, I didn't know you were an avid listener like that. | 0:18:06 | 0:18:09 | |
Well, you mustn't make assumptions, you see? | 0:18:09 | 0:18:13 | |
Right, OK, you got six points, this is the general knowledge round now. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:18 | |
Two minutes. Here's your chance to prove yourself again. Here we go. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:24 | |

Erm... Pass. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:24 | |
BUZZER | 0:20:24 | 0:20:25 | |
I was going to give you another one | 0:20:25 | 0:20:27 | |
but I did not start so I can't finish. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:29 | |
That last one you passed on was the Fabulous Five. | 0:20:29 | 0:20:32 | |
The Spike Lee film that had Fight the Power | 0:20:32 | 0:20:35 | |
and all that was Do The Right Thing. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:39 | |
And that Tupac Shakur double album was All Eyez On <e. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:44 | |
- Of course, yes. - You now have a total of 16 points. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:49 | |
And now A.Dot again please. | 0:20:59 | 0:21:02 | |
You are very new to the station, are you? | 0:21:02 | 0:21:07 | |
- Brand-new. - Brand-new? | 0:21:07 | 0:21:09 | |
- And you're a woman. - Yeah! | 0:21:09 | 0:21:12 | |
Now, I say that, because this is an industry, a genre, | 0:21:12 | 0:21:17 | |
if you prefer, dominated by men. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:19 | |
It is, very male dominated. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:22 | |
But there are a few female DJs, especially on 1Xtra, | 0:21:22 | 0:21:26 | |
they are coming through. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:27 | |
But the music is pretty much dominated by men, | 0:21:27 | 0:21:30 | |
and the people who listen? | 0:21:30 | 0:21:31 | |
I think it is becoming more accessible and enjoyable to everyone. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:37 | |
I think hip-hop and R&B | 0:21:37 | 0:21:40 | |
and all the genres that we play on the station have a broad audience. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:44 | |
I think hip-hop in particular is growing, more appealing to women. | 0:21:44 | 0:21:49 | |
You are seeing that with women doing more hip-hop, | 0:21:49 | 0:21:51 | |
especially in the UK with people like Ms Dynamite, there is | 0:21:51 | 0:21:55 | |
a big scope for more people to come through as well. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:58 | |
So what is the difference, if there is a difference, | 0:21:58 | 0:22:00 | |
between what women do with hip-hop and what men have done traditionally? | 0:22:00 | 0:22:04 | |
I don't think there is a huge difference in terms of what is | 0:22:04 | 0:22:07 | |
delivered. I think there is just more of a history with men in hip-hop. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:12 | |
I think men have been doing it since the '70s. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:16 | |
Not until soft of MC Lyte in the late '80s were women really doing it. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:20 | |
So there is a big gap that we had to catch up on, but we will do that. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:25 | |
Right, that is clear. Now, you have got eight points. | 0:22:25 | 0:22:29 | |
There is a way to go yet, | 0:22:29 | 0:22:31 | |
because there is a fair bit of competition over there. Absolutely. | 0:22:31 | 0:22:34 | |
Let's see if you can do it now with your general knowledge. Here we go. | 0:22:34 | 0:22:39 | |
Which rapper was featured along with Li'l Jon | 0:22:39 | 0:22:42 | |

and first seen in the video for the song Getting Funky? | 0:24:40 | 0:24:44 | |
- Kid And Play? - Yes. | 0:24:44 | 0:24:46 | |
- Oh! - Always worth a guess. | 0:24:46 | 0:24:49 | |
Right, your other passes, well, your passes, that Latino | 0:24:49 | 0:24:52 | |
DJ with the first mixed plate and all that, Disco Wiz. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:55 | |

- Wow. - But that is the flattering bit. | 0:25:53 | 0:25:59 | |
Slightly less flattering part of the question is, | 0:25:59 | 0:26:01 | |
isn't this really a very young person's business? | 0:26:01 | 0:26:04 | |

DJ Red Alert, beyond that, if you like the music music, that's it. | 0:26:18 | 0:26:22 | |
- So it is mainstream now? - Parts of it is mainstream. | 0:26:22 | 0:26:25 | |
- Doesn't it then lose its edge? - Not at all. | 0:26:25 | 0:26:28 | |

He is the most anticipated, | 0:26:38 | 0:26:42 | |
uncompromising artist around at the moment. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:45 | |
He is not going mainstream any time soon. | 0:26:45 | 0:26:47 | |
There is an artist from Manchester called | 0:26:47 | 0:26:49 | |
Shotty Horroh, does his thing the freestyling, | 0:26:49 | 0:26:52 | |
again he has taken it to another level and taken it somewhere else. | 0:26:52 | 0:26:55 | |
He is not mainstream. | 0:26:55 | 0:26:57 | |
He might be one day, but right now, he is perfecting the art. | 0:26:57 | 0:27:00 | |
So what you are saying is there is new blood coming in all the time? | 0:27:00 | 0:27:03 | |
