Well, this was kind of the universe: As we prepare today to transition from punk to hip-hop, here's a brand new podcast about the Clash narrated by Chuck D! "Stay Free: The Story of the Clash" is a new eight-part series developed by the BBC for Spotify. The pairing of Chuck D with the subject is not incongruent. As explained here, Chuck D founded the hip-hop group Public Enemy amid discourse about wanting to be "the hip-hop version of Joe Strummer," the figurehead of the Clash. There's also a related playlist.
