It’s a black hairy flower wasp. You’ll see them zooming around at knee height looking for grubs on warm days. They paralyse them and drag them back to their burrows. They lay an egg on top and off again for more. Really great things to have around the garden as they eat all the grubs that would otherwise be eating your plant’s roots. Totally non-aggressive, unless you’re a grub…

You do realise that rap and hip hop began in the seventies…?

And that rhythmic spoken work precursors to rap abounded in jazz and blues since before music was recorded at all…

Liberate yourself from some of those gnarly old tropes you’ve imbibed sometime and try listening to, say Miles Davis, whose final album before his untimely passing was a hip hop album. De La Soul - whose stuff is now finally streaming - had nothing to do with the Gangsta Rap you seem to think encompasses all hip hop.

By all means stay in your time capsule but try not to spread those old, frankly racist, tropes to another generation…

Oh, btw, I’m pushing sixty, and I love Billie Eilish and Mo, Ju’s (formerly Mojo Juju) new album is a killer …
