Rodney P to Visit Point Blank for Exclusive Talk on Innovation in the Industry

We’re excited to announce that the legendary Rodney P will be joining us on February 6th at our facilities on 26 Orsman Rd, London N1 5QJ for an exclusive talk about his innovation in the UK music scene. Want to learn about the industry on a more permanent basis? Why not check out our Music Industry Management Degree course.

Rodney P is widely regarded as the Godfather of British hip hop. He, along with his rap group London Posse, inspired a whole generation of British emcees and producers by being the first to rap in an authentic London accent and produce a distinctly authentic homegrown UK hip hop reggae vibe.

The London rapper has had one of the longest and most respected careers in UK hip hop to date. After setting up his own label in the early 2000s, Rodney then went on to have his own show on BBC Radio 1Xtra where he interviewed the likes of Pharrell, Diddy, 50 Cent and Kanye West to name a few. In more recent years, he went on to present “The Hip Hop World News” on BBC 4 where he interviewed hip-hop icons including Russell Simmons and Rakim. 2019 saw the MC return to BBC 4 where he presented ‘Beats, Bass & Bars’ – The Story of Grime.

So, if you’re a Point Blank student who’s interested in learning more about making it in the industry, join us on Thursday, 6th February in Studio 1 where the UK artist will elaborate on his experiences and discuss navigating through the different positions the music business has to offer. From artistry to presenting, Rodney P has a wealth of knowledge to soak up.

Although this industry talk is set to take place at our London HQ, we also have facilities in Los Angeles, China, Ibiza and Mumbai where we regularly host masterclasses much like this one.
