There’s been a bit of a ruckus after the Grammy for Best Reggae Album went to SOJA, a nearly all-white band. They won over five Jamaican artists. We hear from DJ, BBC 1Xtra presenter and Grammy award-winning producer Seani B, for his take on the backlash… and he has plenty to say about it!

We also catch up with Mary, a Nigerian medical student, who was left stranded in Ukraine when Russia invaded.

And that’s not all. With 2022 set to be a big year for women’s rugby, we also chat with Shaunagh Brown, a player for England’s national team, the Red Roses. The team are the current world champions and favourites to win the Six Nations Championship and the upcoming Rugby World Cup.

Presenters: De-Graft Mensah and Roshan Roberts
Producer: Kamilah McInnis
Researcher: Michele Theil
Sound: Dave O’Neill
