    Ok quick correction I know Tim is actually 2 years older than I say he is in this Vid. I meant to say he's in his 60s. But whatever. Thanks for watching.

      I moved to the Uk in 98 from Philly and I listened to Westwood every Friday night. I gotta admit I thought he was cheesy AF but he had all the top artists on so you had to listen. He is as certified as it gets. 💣 💣 💣

      Black community and DJ's lost out on jobs to White guys who learnt inside knowledge and craft from them and been losing out on gigs ever since. Yes there are some Black pps who made it but a lot didn't due to be appropriate and pushed out hence why Pirate stations started. Some youngers have no idea what it was like in the 80s. Media wouldn't touch Black music on radios etc and told us RAP was a fad it was very racist and Tim ended up being the poster boy. Still happens today. Yuppies jumped on DJ circuit when it became trendy but back in the day they sneered at inner cities youth and other musicians also undermined the music. He's also a Peado.

    to all the comments that are like "erghh hes cringe" hes not...hes just awkward and nerdy and theres nothing wrong with that,he has a unique approach that makes him stand out and i hope he never changes..
    he loves the music and the culture around it, he doesnt pretend to be someone hes not, so just shut the fuck up until you get a bit older an you understand that lifes not about trying to be hard and it doesnt matter where someones from or what their background is, TLR is a certified OG who actually gets all the right details unlike mainstream news that spread lies that end up putting pressure on communities. so smoke your herbs and just watch...

    3. Tim Westwood was hated so much in the 90s by other DJs/ Promoters cause he would always tell the American Rappers, if you work with anyone in the UK that is not part of his team, they'd not be welcomed back at the BBC.

He IS Hip hop, through and through, he loves the culture, supports the culture and you can see he's enjoyed every minute of it, now that's a career and for the culture, and it just reminded me of listening to the Radio 1 Rap show every Friday night in Kent, from 1996 to probably 2006.

    He's gotta be at least 63 years old since he was apparently born in 1957. Hearing that he was born in 57 makes it seem weird that he's a hip hop DJ but if you really think about it, it's really not that weird. Being born in 57 made him 30 in 87 and at that point hip hop was pretty popular so it's really not that weird that he is a hip hop DJ at his age. Especially since he was around 22 when he first played Rapper's Delight back in 79. Yeah he's at a grandpa age but he basically was growing up with hip hop
