About this listen

Get ready to hear your favorite stories remixed with beats and hooks that you can’t find in books!

In Once Upon a Beat, host DJ Fyütch and his sidekick/turntable Baby Scratch drop the needle on classic stories, spinning them up with a hip-hop twist. They’re turning the tables on your favorite fables. Chicken Little runs a place to eat, RumpleSkillSpin drops magic beats. A grasshopper grooves while the ant gets to work, and a mixed-up Frog Prince goes berserk!

Where hip hop and fables meet, it's Once Upon a Beat!
