DJ Semtex | The Man Who Broke Kanye & Drake In The UK Before Anyone Cared

Sobre este episodio

<p>He broke Kanye West in the UK before College Dropout dropped. He filmed Drake's first ever UK interview in Hyde Park — paid the cameraman £50 out of his own pocket because the station didn't care. He flew to New York to sign Fatman Scoop and got aired for a week until a 4am diner meeting sealed the deal. Ghostface Killah called his book the Bible of hip hop. Chuck D wrote the foreword in five minutes.</p><p>And before any of that, he was an 8-year-old kid in North Manchester who discovered what the N-word meant because there was a game in the playground called "Catch The N****r." This is DJ Semtex. And this is the conversation I've been waiting to have.</p><br><p><strong>Semtex:</strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/djsemtex/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a> · <a href="https://x.com/DJSemtex" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">X</a> · <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@dj.semtex" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a> · <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_19sw2aJrxVjx8kWyQ4flA" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a> · <a href="https://djsemtex.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">djsemtex.com</a></p><p><strong>Marvyn:</strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/discoverwithmarvyn/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a> · <a href="https://www.instagram.com/marvynharrisonpodcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Podcast IG</a> · <a href="https://x.com/Marvyn_Harrison" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">X</a> · <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@marvyn_harrison" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a> · <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@MarvynHarrison" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a> · <a href="https://www.marvynharrison.co.uk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">marvynharrison.co.uk</a></p><p><strong>Dope Black Dads:</strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dopeblackdads/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a> · <a href="https://www.dopeblackdads.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">dopeblackdads.com</a></p><p>The Marvyn Harrison Podcast: culture, identity and fatherhood, hosted by the founder of Dope Black Dads.</p><br><p>Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MarvynHarrison</p><p>Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-marvyn-harrison-podcast/id1456522027</p><p>Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3cIh6ejnk3lUUVhqSKzPUS</p><p>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marvynharrisonpodcast</p><p>Partnerships and sponsorship: marvyn@belovd.agency</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
