Ep.209 - DITD 4th Anniversary Special

Four years ago on April 10th, Diggin' In The Digits began. Since that Tuesday, we have dropped an episode every Tuesday. We've never missed a drop and have learnt so much over those four years. We celebrate with a reflection, our favourite episodes in the past year; an existential question linked to Hip-Hop's upcoming 50th birthday and we bring back Deadpan Recitals.Thanks for spinning as we continue our journey.TIMESTAMPS:Weekly Music Roundup - (1:43) (Ben = Bold / Charlie = Italics)GQ - For Good MeasureC.S.
