Ep.217 - Artificial Digging & The Cockney Dialect
In a week where:
- R Kelly & Harvey Weinstein rack up more prison time.
- James Bond books are being rewritten in sensitivity measures.
- UK & EU finally agree on a NI Protocol deal.
- A 6.2 magnitude earthquake happens off coast of Papua New Guinea.
- Over 20 people die in Greece after two trains collide head on.
In Media: (12:20) Awards culture is rife in nearly all walks of life. But when you think about it, it's a lot of effort and money to give an award to adults. Are they really worth it?
In Music: (27:59) In Hip-Hop culture, the sample diggers are the obsessive minority that spend their days trying to discern samples. But now that they have AI on their side; it's never been so good for a sample digger.
In the first of two Life segments: (38:00) Within Black British culture, the dominant sect were the Caribbean contingent, but now that the raw numbers show that Afro-Brits make up more of the wider population, is it time to shift the culture to more of an African slant? Is it already happening?
Lastly: (49:17) The Cockney accent - birthed in East London - is one of the biggest cultural exports we have ever produced. But the days of rhyming slang and "Wheeler-dealers" are dwindling; where has the Cockney gone?
