UK music’s national treasure Mike Skinner (The Streets) is set to host a brand new series he has co-directed with Noisey. The 6 episode special will see the artist/producer/label boss explore Palestinian Hip-Hop.

During this 6 part series we meet Tamer Nafar, also known as the godfather of Palestinian Hip Hop who founded the group DAM, Ohad Cohen who after being a regular in the Tel Aviv rap scene as a teenager then moved towards ultra orthodox Judaism, but still has ambitions to be a famous rapper, and Ben Blackwell, who is part of the fascinating Hebrew Israelite community of the desert town of Dimona. Plus many other MCs from all different backgrounds including Subliminal, Saz and Rebel Sun.

Buy tickets to the world premiere at Everyman Cinema in Angel, London, as part of the Music and Film Festival including Q&A with Mike Skinner.
