Chase & Status Feat Kano - Against All Odds!


If you had to have a theme tune to accompany you whilst you flew light speed through space in one of those space craft things... Well, this would be it for me!

Serious boys of grime killed it on this record - they've also hooked up with Plan B on 'End Credits', which is perhaps more grimey than dancey, but either way, Kano goes hard on this tune.

Loving the old skool feel all over this record; plus Kano spits quite imaginatively on each bar too. A real fresh b-boy tune to break to. Hot video - hot tune! End of.
Justin Bieber Feat. Usher! Somebody To Love (Remix)!


It doesn't matter who you are or where you are - this kid is f@&£%*# everywhere?!

In all honesty, I ain't feeling his usual Disney-touchy-feely-tweenie stuff, but this tune is heavy!

Is it all about the 'Bieber' these days? Seems like there's quite a few rappers getting their PR peeps to hook them up with this kid for some easy promo - but he's just everywhere right now isn't he.

I guess we'll just have to see how long he stays around for, but this tune with Usher is suprisingly good. Although teens singing about love is a bit daft right? Anyways, it's a killer beat and I likes.
Klaxons - Flashover


3 years since the last Klaxons stuff - and it's fair to say 'Myths of the near Future' was a roaring success as far as indie-disfunctional-new-rave-hypnotic-acid-beats was concerned.

This new tune however... well, it's a bit more... erm, samey? I'm not sure - but it sounds similar to 'Magick', 'Atlantis to Interzone' and 'Totem on The Timeline'? Can't say it's a massive change of direction; however I don't think the Klaxons formula needs meddling with to be honest. I was all for the psychedelic-hippy-grime'a'tronic music from the last record. It was a brilliant journey into their imagination and way of doing things.

I think after the third spin, I was humming it and nodding my head to the heavy riff and 'weeee-woooowww' bits in my head too. Dirty beat'age with lots of slimy riff'age and techno-art-funk graffiti-trance is how I would best describe this tune.

A good return to the much needed boring indie music scene of late (well, bar the new Foals record by the way).

I think it's looking positive for these boys, and if this tune is anything to go by, the new album will deliver.

The future is bright.... The future is new rave?! (or is that dead now...)

Feeling The Dream - Makeup Bag Feat. T.I


Got this tune a short while ago; however I cannot stop spinning this record.

I've only got into The Dream a short while ago, mostly stuff they did with Drake and my other fave song 'Fancy'.

They seem to have an air of relaxed-laid-back-chilled-method to their music, but I'm kinda into that right now.

But the melody and beat is seriously on point on this track. My fave tune of late. End of.
Oh Africa and a can of PEPSI!

As much as I can't wait for the world cup to begin - I also can't get enough of the marketing and branding associated with the world cup too!

Another brilliant advert inspired by football - and more importantly Africa. PEPSI have done well here!

This is a great commercial for PEPSI; namely with the use of some pretty big named players too. Loving how everyone in the video has a funny-light hearted role to play - from Drogba, Messi, Kaka and Lampard - they all carry through the good vibes this commercial was designed to instill.

A nice funny and upbeat advert - with some great tune'age from Akon with the most hammered song on my iPod - Oh Africa. I'm loving it! (oh... that's Macdonald's isn't it?)

Probably the best football TV advert ever?!?NIKE Write The Future!


After watching Inter Milan claim the UEFA Champions League trophy last night - this advert followed during the commercial break.

I couldn't keep up with the number of sports personalities in this advert.

It's brilliant how they manage to include different scenarios with each twist and turn (resembling each twist and turn of fate perhaps?)

It just excited me beyond belief - a truly fitting and amazing advert by NIKE - breathtaking I tell you!

I cannot wait for the World Cup... Ohh Afrikaaa!!!
Drake for the summer! Listen to July :)


This is an old song from Drake (about 2007), but it's sooo right for the Summer!

It's a lovely-light-airy-cupcake of a tune with a sweet melody and thought provoking sentiments of time old relationships.

Kinda song you and missus could listen together to without either of you getting embarrased to sing along to the hook.

Can't wait for Thank Me Later soon! It's gonna be huge!

Love, Drake and Summer; such a wonderful musical cocktail. Down in one my baby :)
How hot is Nicki Minaj!?! (Girl can spit too!?!)


This girl can certainly drop some bars! I first heard her on 'Bedrock' with Drake and Lil' Wayne; but damn... You could easily mistake her for a Playboy Centrefold right? I loved her remix of Drake's 'Best I Ever Had' too; seriously hot!

Once you get passed the boobs, curves and the 'junk in the trunk', this girl is spitting hard fire right now.

She's pretty much going to be huge in 2010, and after hooking up with the 'Young Money Cash Money' boys; big things are in the pipe line for her.

I reckon she has that dirty-drunk-comedy delivery that Lil' Wayne prides himself on; but she has bags of sex appeal; like Lil' Kim and Trina do too. A marketable and profitable package some may say.

Is she the next 'Queen of hip-hop'?... well perhaps is far too early to consider her just yet, but i'm sure Hot 97; MTV; Vibe Magazine and all other media outlets will be pushing her tunes.

Check out one of her earlier and most popular tunes to date above - 'Itty Bitty Piggy'. Whatever you think of her, I love the girl!?!
Pure Wu Tang Clan Gold - Gravel Pit! "Back, back, and forth, and forth!"

The 'Wu' have such an epic armoury of killer hip-hop hits; it's hard to pick a fave! Some people LOVE the stuff of '36 Chambers'; some people say 'The W' was epic; but I reckon this single was possibly the ultimate 'Wu' classic!
Such a pulsating bass line with an infectious 2-step hip sway to it; loving the mix of dynamite lyricage and comedy value in the video too.
With a kick ass old skool kung-fu 'Street Fighter' style fight scene mixed into the video, this tune was pure club-crazy-grimeness!
It's all about the 'back, back, and forth, and forth'!?! Try not to nod your head to this banger. Pure Genius :)

Crazy Cousinz Feat. Kyla - Do You Mind!


Probably the best funky house tune I've heard... Ever?!

Loving the stuff Crazy Cousinz have done with Meleka recently also, but I cannot get enough of this tune. Liking the steady keyboard and soft tones of Kayla all over this too.

Just got to skank hard to this tune; and best done when turned up loud!?!

Absolute fire 2-stepping goodness. Beautiful!
Drake - Find Your Love


Drake is on fire and I can't wait for the album to drop! Looking forward to 'Thank Me Later' in June; this is possibly going to be one of the most eagerly awaited hip hop albums this year.

I've followed Drake for sometime now, but this song with Kanye West is beautiful. Wonderfully distorted-fuzzy-crackling-futuristic hip hop with soft delicate r'n'b tones drizzled all over it - like a warm-Matrix-fudge cake!

It's all about the Drizzy right now. Yuuupp!
Tinie Tempah - Frisky Live!


Absolutely feeling Tinie right now. Seriously getting into my grime-garage-dub-step-wave at the mo!

This tune will be massive on a Spartan-Greek-War level! It's currently measuring at an earthquake on the Tune'age scale. Frrrr'iskeeeee!?!
PUMA + Amazing Football + Gnarls Barkley = Genius.


I love this commercial so much. It was on before the Trailers during this weeks release of Iron Man 2 in cinemas.

Can't get enough of the tune either - 'Going On' by the groove-bots Gnarls Barkley! Fantastic eye-welling happiness :)
