Tim Westwood chats to I Like Music
Tim Westwood is the most recognised urban DJ of the decade, a pioneer of the UK hip hop and urban scene with two show's on BBC Radio One broadcasting to over 1.5 million listeners. He has the biggest selling urban compilation in history and hosted the most successful MTV UK production of all time, Pimp My Ride. He's won the Best UK Radio DJ at the MOBO awards three times and Best Radio DJ in Hip Hop Connection Mag since 1992 - every year!
Evidently, Tim Westwood is the man.
I Like Music caught up with the Big Dawg himself to talk about who's hot in hip hop right now, his career and the whole do-it-yourself revolution.
"I Like Music, but especially rap music because… it's the most powerful music in the world. It's certainly influenced my life, it's defined my life and who I am. It's all about sending out a powerful message. Rap music has a whole culture and lifestyle with it. It talks directly to you and I think it's just incredibly powerful music and an important voice to the community." TIM WESTWOOD
