No way, That's Huw Stephens! The man is a legend, he lives in cardiff and is a top bloke. First person to ever play glc a couple of years back, better than zane lowe for sure.

well why does he ask him gay questions like "what do you think about people who say you've paved the way for acts like the streets and dizzee?"

if you're going to be interviewing roots manuva on national radio then at least take the time to think of some decent questions and get to know a bit more about the uk hip-hop scene. streets and dizzee for fucks sake!

i've loved roots manuva for ages. and OF knows that i appreciate some of the classic's he has produced (dreamy days,witness, wheremy mind is at etc etc etc) i just find at the moment his stuff to be a bit "normal" which is exactly the opposite of old skool roots. he's a rudebwoooiii but i dunno, i go through phases. i even stopped liking phi life cypher for ages, but i like em again now. saying that, i might have a butchers at the academy tickets  :-))(  

gwaaaaan roots prove me wrong.
