The Edge 173 - Saluting a UK Gospel Trailblazer | Roger Moore Interviews DJ Fitz | Affinity Xtra Join Roger Moore on a nostalgic journey through the history of Urban Gospel in the UK as he sits down with DJ Fitz, the former host of the BBC 1Xtra Gospel Show and a true pioneer of the scene. In this first-ever interview, DJ Fitz shares his journey—from growing up in the church to embracing Hip-Hop, Dancehall, and US Garage (yes, even spinning Anne Nesby vinyls!). His story reveals the passion, challenges, and dedication it took to become the voice of Gospel on mainstream radio. Though our community didn’t always give him the flowers he deserved, his impact is undeniable. We at Affinity Xtra salute DJ Fitz for laying the foundation for what the UK Gospel Music scene is today. #DJFitz #UKGospelHistory #AffinityXtra #RogerMooreTalks #UrbanGospel #BBC1Xtra #Trailblazer #GospelPioneer #CHHUK #DancehallGospel #HipHopFaith #GiveThemTheirFlowers https://youtu.be/kMTKVwyORSE
