Defend Truth

Rob Boffard

Rob Boffard is a freelance music and technology journalist. He's been writing, talking and thinking about his specialty, hip-hop music, for over ten years - and been trying to convince people of its awesomeness for about the same amount of time. He has written for The Guardian, The Mail and Guardian, The Saturday Star, NME, Wired Magazine, Computer Music Magazine, Okayplayer, Beatnik and The Jewish Chronicle, among quite a few others. He writes a weekly column for The South African newspaper in London. Rob is also a radio presenter and producer, hosting the popular 20/20 music show on Recharged Radio, where he tries to combine South African rap with music from elsewhere in as unobtrusive a manner as possible. Mostly, it works.
