Trace UK

Trace UK live doesn't bother with mainstream pop charts; it's laser-focused on the sounds that actually move the UK's club and street culture. The playlist leans heavily on current hip-hop, Afrobeat, and dancehall, with a healthy dose of grime and UK drill that you won't find on BBC Radio 1. What sets it apart from American hip-hop channels is the curation, there's a specific Britishness to the track selection, even when playing US artists. The channel runs music videos 24/7, but the real value is in the themed blocks: late-night mixes from specialist DJs, old-school garage and bassline throwbacks on weekends, and a daily countdown show that actually reflects what London, Birmingham, and Manchester are streaming. Graphics are clean, no cluttered bugs, and the video quality is crisp. If you're tired of the same tired playlists on MTV or Vevo, Trace UK feels like the underground version that's somehow not underground anymore. You can watch Trace UK online on Tvivu and keep your finger on the pulse of British urban music. It's the channel to leave on if you want to discover what's about to break next.
