Their latest show focuses on the infamous book Subway Art and is a tribute for all writers worldwide and paying homage to Henry Chalfont and Martha Cooper, the two that made a book which changed lives. It is a must listen to so check out that show here!


DJ Philly's aim is to bring back the pause mix-tape era and beats to make your necks snap. He presents Trackside Burners, a hip hop soundscape for all writers & b-boys/girls on the legendary Itch FM & his aim is to promote the movement and the art form of our hip hop nation.
