Hosted by DJ Ronsha and G-Zon, the esteemed Boom Bap Show showcases an outstanding selection of Boom Bap, Hip Hop, and Rap music. This programme is a vital component of Scientific Sound Asia, a distinguished DJ agency, radio station, and event organiser with a significant global following, particularly throughout Asia.


G-Zon, a prominent figure in Paris, has been an influential presence in the French hip-hop scene since the 1980s. Alongside DJ Ronsha, he co-founded La Meute, a collective that has played a crucial role in the development of French Boom Bap and Rap music.


Their impact extends far beyond their musical achievements, leaving a lasting imprint on the wider French hip-hop landscape. Renowned for their combination of raw, powerful lyrics and soulful, dynamic beats, the works of G-Zon and DJ Ronsha continue to resonate with both traditional and contemporary hip-hop enthusiasts.


La Meute's acclaimed album Danse Avec Les Loups represents a significant milestone in their careers, featuring collaborations with some of France's most esteemed artists, including 20SYL (of Hocus Pocus and C2C) and Black M (of Sexion d'Assaut). This album not only solidified their status within the international music scene but also demonstrated La Meute's ability to evolve, seamlessly integrating various styles while preserving their distinctive underground sound. Their authenticity and talent for crafting meaningful music have established them as respected figures within global hip-hop circles.


DJ Ronsha, also based in Paris, is celebrated for his exceptional production skills and serves as the official DJ for the Boom Bap Show. His influence on the Boom Bap genre is profound, having collaborated extensively with La Meute and produced tracks for a variety of underground artists.


Ronsha's intricate beats have earned him a reputation as a master of sound, providing an ideal backdrop for the incisive and straightforward lyricism characteristic of La Meute. His ability to broaden the horizons of Boom Bap while remaining true to its roots has established him as a pivotal figure in the evolution of the genre's sound.


G-Zon and DJ Ronsha have cultivated a distinctive fusion of classic Boom Bap music that resonates on a global scale. Their influence transcends the recording studio, as both artists actively engage with their audience through vibrant live performances, hosting radio programmes, and organising memorable events.


As members of La Meute, they have been instrumental in shaping the underground French hip-hop scene, extending its reach across borders and connecting with fans worldwide. Their ongoing collaboration continues to expand the possibilities of Boom Bap, ensuring that their legacy remains deeply embedded in the culture.


The show opens with a nostalgic nod to classic DJ culture, weaving scratching and sample flips into a confident introduction. Chill Rob G sets the tone with urgent reflections, while Godfather Don and Jazz Spastiks lay jazzy loops beneath razor-sharp delivery. As the set grows heavier, OC From NC’s aggressive lyricism meets experimental psychedelia from Boxguts and Krohme's militant posse cut.


In the next phase, the production shifts between mafioso grit and spiritual focus. Kool G Rap returns with street-coded poetics, contrasted by TriState and Vinyl Villains' metaphysical stylings. Soulful grooves balance out the darkness with Reuben Vincent and 9th Wonder offering reflective highs. Meanwhile, UK presence and Christian rap elements deepen the lyrical scope, adding layers of meaning to the boom bap foundation.


As the mix progresses, the show explores more narrative and emotional territory. Tracks like Lorraine and God’s Children offer storytelling and inspiration, while Lords Of The Underground inject crowd energy with Snowgoons’ aggressive orchestral beats. Abstract bars, horror-tinged verses, and dystopian visions push boundaries before Justo The MC critiques materialism through smooth, conscious textures.


Closing out, the set dives into rugged cyphers, battle-ready anthems, and off-kilter experiments. Kool Kat and RJ Payne deliver raw, unfiltered verses alongside eerie production. Jazz-laced instrumentals and UK grit lead into hard-edged finales from Ill Clinton, Bub Styles, and Che Noir. The episode ends on a reflective note, tying together street wisdom and introspective truth with soul-sampled clarity.
