About

A collection of exclusive hip-hop interviews filmed by KillerHipHopTV since 2009, alongside our columns and a record of the wider scene.

We bring you in-depth interviews and features with hip-hop legends and rising artists.

Interviews and features

Our interviews are made by KillerHipHop and our YouTube channel, KillerHipHopTV. Many were filmed in London, often backstage or on the day of a show. That is where artists tend to relax and talk openly.

You will find conversations with 50 Cent, Wiz Khalifa, Kendrick Lamar, Cypress Hill, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony and Ice-T. You will also meet plenty of artists at the start of their careers. Alongside the interviews there is live footage and event coverage, such as the Rocawear UK launch party in London below.

Every one of them is collected on our Originals page.

Columns

Our columns take a closer look at the music and the people who make it.

• 1 Verse 1 Hearse: one verse from a track, taken apart line by line.
• You're Killin' It: credit where it is due, from Drake to Nardwuar.
• Deaf-Initions: words that rappers use, and what they really mean.

The wider scene

We also share interviews and videos from across hip-hop. Together they tell the story of the scene through the late 2000s and 2010s.
