Show Notes

[Nigel Webber](http://www.instagram.com/makingplansfornigel/) is a local writer and the author of the upcoming book [Gritty City](http://www.instagram.com/grittycitywpg/), an oral history of Winnipeg hip-hop. We talked about the ambitious project, the wide range of artists he has interviewed already, some of the long-lost Winnipeg rap records he has yet to hear, and more! Get a taste of Nigel’s project in this month's Stylus Magazine, which includes his hard-to-argue-with [list of Winnipeg’s top 100 rap songs](http://ckuw.ca/stylus/2020/10/06/winnipeg-state-of-mind-top-100-winnipeg-hip-hop-songs/). This episode brought to you by [Rob Crooks](http://robcrooks.bandcamp.com/), whose outstanding new album, Introducing the Ghost, is out now from [Saskatoon Folk Rap Records](http://saskatoonfolkraprecords.bandcamp.com/)! It’s also brought to you by our pals at the [Beer Boutique](http://www.facebook.com/beerboutiquewpg/)! Huge thanks to everyone who supports the podcast on [Patreon](http://www.patreon.com/witchpolice). You can help out for as little as $1 a month if you like the show and want to throw some change in the guitar case!
