It’s more likely that you’d have heard of the lads, who make up rapping trio ‘Kneecap’, through news apps and social media discourse then you would have because of their music. From falling out with countless governments, to being charged with terrorism offences, it’s easy to say that Kneecap has sparked nothing short of scandal and controversy ever since their inception.

Whilst they've made their fair share of enemies, Móglaí Bap, Mo Chara and DJ Próvaí have become responsible for something far larger than some angry politicians- some could say that the trio have been critical in driving a resurgence in the Irish language.

So who are these rappers and what is Kneecap all about? To be relieved of such questions and learn about the trio's links to last week's 'Fontaines D.C.', look no further than this episode of Six Notes of Separation.
