Tim Westwood with his good friend Nicki

Hello people! I’ve got some news for you all! As we all know Tim Westwood has been in the game for a LONG time, he’s been DJ’ing since he was a teenager!  He’s really seen it all, all the game changers and artist blow ups. He is a talented DJ, otherwise he wouldn’t be so popular, he keeps us entertained with the latest hip hop, R&B (slow jams), grime and dancehall. For a middle aged Englishman that’s pretty sick. Unfortunately, from being replaced on the drive time spot on BBC Radio 1xtra last year, he is now being robbed of his Saturday night spot on Radio 1 and 1xtra which resulted in him being booted off altogether.

Ok yeah so Tim Westwood is 55 years old and all but he is well known in the industry and very well respected, because of his knowledge of the industry! He has a lot of fans, and I am definitely one. We actually spoke last year at an event organised by  Bigga Fish (Not for profit organisation) and BBC Radio 1xtra . There was a huge event where a few 1xtra presenters where DJ’ing,  Tim Westwood turned up to the event, and we ended up having a chat about what his plans were for the future, his experience and we had a good laugh as well. Can I just say, Tim Westwood is passionate about what he does and is a lovely and ambitious man and it’s a shame he’s been kicked off 1xtra, it really is!
