Romesh welcomes the Philadelphia hip hop group Digable Planets onto the show for a chat. Featuring music from Camp Lo, Knucks and MC Lyte.

Romesh gets the inside scoop on Philadelphia's hip hop trio Digable Planets, before they head to this year’s London Jazz Festival, to celebrate 30 years of their 1994 album Blowout Comb. Together, they talk through the importance of being original in rap, some of their greatest hits and merging the sounds of jazz and hip hop.

There’s also time for tunes from Shade Sheist, Ja Rule, Subculture Sage, Kendrick Lamar and Eve.
