Hip-Hop at NPR America's National Public Radio (NPR) seem to be going through a bit of a hip-hop phase, with recent shows focussing on hip-hop pioneers Grandmaster Flash, Melle Mel (the orginal vocalist for Flash's crew the Furious Five), and DJ Kool Herc (the father of the DJ breakbeat).

They're worth listening to just for the humour in listening to the educated 'public radio' voice of Terry Gross in contrast to those of the black hip-hoppers from New York.
