INTERNATIONAL hip hop star Joe Motley is returning to his roots this weekend to inspire a young generation of rappers.

The world-renowned artist, originally from Oldham, has shared the stage with the likes of Nelly, Beyonce, Nas and Damian Marley.

But he’s going solo for his trip to Square 1 Studios, in Union Street, where he is hosting a hip hop and rap masterclass weekender.
