Watch Lethal Bizzle, Semtex, DJ Target and A-Dot battle it out on TV quiz Mastermind

Grime’s sharpest minds brave the famous black chair.

Hearing John Humphrys saying “Wu Tang Clang” repeatedly is only part of the fun in this one-off episode of long-running BBC 2 quiz Mastermind, filmed as part of Radio 1Xtra’s Hip Hop Month.

DJ Target answers questions on UK grime but stumbles on a Lady Sovereign question, Semtex absolutely nails it on Kanye West and G.O.O.D. Music, A.Dot is grilled on Jay Z and Lethal Bizzle tackles Wu Tang Clan. A hip-hop general knowledge round follows (so no questions on 19th century British prime ministers or the like, sadly).

Watch the show in full on BBC iPlayer and read the Guardian’s behind-the-scenes report from the show.

The show’s presenter also got dragged into this absurd collaboration with 1Xtra’s Charlie Sloth, a hip-hop reworking of the show’s theme tune. For the kids, like.
