More than just a musical genre, hip-hop has become a global youth culture.

Alan Yentob embarks on a journey of discovery, encountering both young UK rappers and big US stars.
4. Stella's Story
Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Moss and Vogue's Anna Wintour contribute to the tale of Stella McCartney's rise from student at St Martins to her big break into the fashion elite.
