Advantages: Music, Guests, Top 10 at 10

Disadvantages: HIS VOICE

'Tim Westwood is regarded as the most influential figure in hip hop in Europe and as a pioneer of the UK scene' says the Radio 1 site. I agree.

He began life as a DJ in the famous pirate days of KISS. He then went on to do the Capital FM Rap Show for 7 years, before moving to Radio 1.

The man is a legend and a household name all throughout the country. When he ran a regular Saturday night slot last year, he attracted 3,500 every night and brought along Funkmaster Flex, Busta Rhymes, Jay Z, Lil Kim, Mase, EPMD, K-Ci and Jojo, Gang Starr and the Jungle Brothers to name a few.

Tim's show unleashes all the latest unreleased and released hip hop to your ears every Friday and Saturday night from 9-11 on Radio 1.

There is also a taste of NYC once a month, with the live New York Rap Exchange, with Funkmaster Flex. Every Saturday the studio is filled with fine guests such as Method Man and Redman, Jay Z, Puff Daddy, Busta Rhymes and Eminem, who Tim chats to and counts down the top 10 with.

If you're a fan of UK or US hip hop, you MUST check out this show.
