About

Grown Up Rap is a blog about intelligent and independent hip-hop, with news and reviews, plus long-form essays on the history of the music and where it stands today.

The blog is curated and edited by Ben Pedroche, a hip-hop fan for 23 years and counting. He has written extensively for a range of magazines, including the seminal Hip-Hop Connection. Ben also formerly owned and ran an independent hip-hop label, albeit an unsuccessful one.

He is also a published author, with three books about London history on his resume. Click here to find out more.
