April on BBC Radio 1Xtra marks MC Month; and to celebrate, the station will be exclusively revealing the UK's Official Top 100 Hip-Hop Songs. 

1Xtra DJs Ace, Yasmin and Nick Bright will be unveiling the rundown from 12pm on Easter Monday (that's April 17).

The Top 100 is, of course, based on Official Charts Company data, combining sales (physical and download) and streaming equivalent sales.

Without wanting to give too much away, it's pretty safe to assume that the chart will feature plenty of classics by the likes of Jay Z, 50 Cent and Eminem, as well as huge hits by Drake and Kanye West.

You really want to get a sneak peak? Ok then... here's the Top 10 just for you. That's still 90 massive tracks you need to tune into 1Xtra for on Monday.

One Dance is a dancehall song, not a rap song!

Aha, One Dance and See You Again are NOT hip-hop. Drake and Wiz Khalifa are hip-hop artists, but those are not hip-hop songs. That would be like saying Shape of You is a folk song. Ed Sheeran is a folk artist.Shape Of You is not a folk song.
