The original UK hip hop website.. Putting knowledge into heads since 1998... UKHH.com was the first internet site dedicated to UK Hip Hop.
We opened back in 1998 and have lived through the good and bad times over the last two decades. We represent for all good UK Hip Hop no matter where it comes from. We aim to cover UKHH artists and music without bias, offering an opinion you can trust, from people who understand the music.
Updated our 'UKHH.com: Summer Heaters' Playlist on Spotify weeks ago and figured would drop the next time there was some Summer😂Today will do. If its grey where you are, inject some sunshine anyway and check our 2024 summer selection ready for parks, beaches and gardens whenever the weather permits! 😎A mix of new heat, some summer classics and a bunch of unsung tracks that deserve their time in the sun.🌞

Solomon PM sat down with Jimmy of the infamous 98s collective a while back. Head to the site to check the full feature.
"UKHH.com has spent the month of April filming the 'Five City Tour' aka 'Hip Hop at 50', a UK wide event with DJ 279 and Cutmaster Swift at the helm. It saw an overall celebration of Hip Hop culture including live music, discussion panels (Respect the DJ, So You're a Rapper, A Different Perspective), paint parties, breakdancing workshops and more. We got to work with some of the legends who pioneered the sound, as well as those who currently exist in the universe that followed, it was a blast! We need more of this unity and celebration in the scene, and we were honoured that DJ 279 invited us to capture the spectacle in all it's glory. We saw a lot of old faces who have given their heart and soul to this music, as well as making a lot of new friends and connections along the way. We have a vibrant Hip Hop scene in this country and it should be celebrated.. this is something you live, so get involved and help push the music forward".

Recent moments like Drake recognising some of the best rappers as coming from the UK have been a long time coming, and have taken the combined efforts of a whole nation of artists and platforms... Fifty years on from the birth of hip hop, there is some small smugness to be found in knowing that the UK is now an integral part of the global hip hop story.
