Coming up on today's show I caught up with a true legend of Hip Hop, Masta Ace. Masta Ace has been rapping since the 80's where he appeared on the Juice Crew's classic Posse Cut. From there he has gone from strength to strength including his iconic album Disposable Arts and for Eminem to mention him as one of his influences in his book The Way I Am. 

Despite rapping since the 80's he shows no signs of slowing down. Masta Ace continues pushing art in general – and music specifically – forward. 

“I think I have contributed music that has challenged the status quo in hip-hop,” he says. “I have given heartfelt music that moves listeners emotionally, music that does more than make you wanna do something. I made you feel something and think about something.”
