THE TRIBE UG PODCAST is a weekly podcast discussing the different topics of the UG Hip-Hop industry with an African/global approach by the hosts. In 2013, we started a journey! A journey on which we told UG Hip-Hop stories and documented the game. The journey has been an eventful with major milestones because of your support. On this journey we have pushed the game and built different properties such as; the blog (www.thetribe.africa), The Tribe UG Magazine, UG Hip-Hop Awards (2016-2020), Tidal African Hip-Hop Playlist & a content driven agency (skyline media) that monetizes UG Hip-Hop.
