Welcome to Immigrant Island. Reimagining a certain legendary radio show for a new generation, we invite one very special guest to select 8 records to take with them to a desert island.

Now imagine each episode as one of those small boats - crossing the Channel, carrying change-makers, young creative entrepreneurs, poets, musicians, visual artists, founders of charities, festivals, activists and community leaders.

Now more than ever, its time to spotlight the unsung heroes that make this strange island of Britain, Great - powered by intimate stories of immigration, identity and subcultures. A revealing mix of a deeply personal interview, soundtracked by the songs that define their life and career.

Hak Baker's music selection was top drawer. Unexpected gems from Reggae to Ital Disco, via 90's Chill Out and West Coast Hip Hop. The chat was peppered with laughter, touching moments and revealing stories of MC battles in youth clubs, navigating prison life, blue Ford Focus' and ASDA's champion CD section. And of course a few live surprises (check out the bonus content). But could we secure the dubplate...? Hak Baker is one of a kind. A British-Jamaican musician firmly rooted in London's East End, he is once-in-a-generation storyteller; counting the likes of Skepta, Celeste, Pete Doherty and the late Benjamin Zephaniah as fans and friends, Hak's music is unfiltered and uncategorisable sitting somewhere between The Streets and Billy Bragg, via grime culture and reggae roots. He has performed at Glastonbury Festival's famous Other Stage, and our very own Rum Shack, Royal Albert Hall and headlined Somerset House. He has just released an acclaimed documentary 'Hakeem' which premiered at London's BFI iMAX. Lyrix Organix reimagines a certain legendary radio show for a new generation, inviting one very special guest to select records to take with them to their desert island. The twist? One of our guests' track selections, re-recorded as a 'special' by the original vocalist, pressed as a one-off dubplate and presented in front of a live audience. Imagine each 'Immigrant Island Dubplates' episode as one of those small boats crossing the Channel - carrying change-makers, entrepreneurs, poets, musicians, charity founders, festival pioneers, activists and community leaders. Now more than ever, its time to spotlight the unsung heroes that make this strange island of Britain, Great - powered by intimate stories of immigration, identity and subcultures. The show was recorded live at Royal Albert Hall's Elgar Room - , in partnership with Royal Albert Hall. Thank you making this episode possible. On the night there were surprise live performances by acclaimed poet Yomi Sode, and Hak himself.

Welcome to Immigrant Island. We couldn't have asked for a better guest to launch Immigrant Island Dubplates - Jordan Stephens has done the lot. So we listened to his favourite music, heard some incredible stories, and presented him a very special gift. There may have been tears. Jordan has been a chart-topping rapper with Rizzle Kicks, best-selling author, poet, actor (inc Star Wars: Rogue One), TV presenter and mental health campaigner. The multi-hyphenate creative guides us through his impeccable 'desert island' selection - spanning Lauryn Hill to The Streets via Radiohead - with profound personal tales, childhood memories and industry misadventures. Jordan is a rare beast - an unfiltered, funny and brutally honest guest who speaks openly of drug addiction, social anxiety, ADHD, bullying and toxic masculinity. And how music helped overcome many of these challenges. In true 'Immigrant Island'-style, Jordan is also an inspiring force for positive social change - launching major mental health campaign #IAMWHOLE (which was mentioned in the Houses of Parliament). His highly-anticipated autobiography 'Avoidance, Drugs, Heartbreak and Dogs' is out on 22 Aug 2024. Imagine each 'Immigrant Island Dubplates' episode as one of those small boats crossing the Channel - carrying change-makers, entrepreneurs, poets, musicians, charity founders, festival pioneers, activists and community leaders.
