Sean 'Diddy' Combs

The BBC News website reports that Sean Combs aka Puff Daddy aka Puffy aka Puff aka P Diddy aka Diddy aka Papa Diddy Pop, has expressed admiration for today’s ‘UK Hip Hop scene’.  

The star believes that British Hip Hop is “on the verge of breaking into the US charts”, and added,  

“I’ve always been abreast and respected the UK Hip-Hop scene and I look forward to great things,”  

(saying this in a broad Jamaican accent) –  STOP LIE!!!!!  

But I would love to know the names of the artists that he admires within the UK Hip Hop scene. If we are talking about the usual mediocre mainstream suspects who currently reign supreme in the UK charts, then old man Diddy needs to be guided in to the right direction.  ASAP!!!

 Anyway….  

Tinie Tempeh is the only one who stands a decent chance of breaking into the US charts, only because his tracks so far have been well produced. Other than that I think his lyrics will go down like a lead balloon over there.  They don’t want to hear about chocolate biscuits.

18-year-old Ngurah Alit was forced to marry a cow after he was spotted naked standing behind the animal, in a Bali paddy field.

Alit claimed the cow was a young and beautiful woman and that she had seduced him with flattering comments.

Detik.com reports that the teenager was then forced to marry the cow to cleanse the village of  the beastility, but passed out during the ‘ceremony’.

The cow was then drowned in the sea as part of the Pecaruan ritual, and Alit was only symbolically drowned and bathed on the beach.

Chief Ida Bagus Legawa declared that the village had then been ‘cleansed’ from the ‘defilement from the incident.’

NO COMMENT!

New group Frixion have teamed up with FDM (aka Fun*dmental) on their debut single Afraid.

I really like this song and it’s good to see FDM back on the scene.

It’s strange this is Frixion’s debut single but FDM almost steal the show.

But the groups do sound good together and I think Afraid will go on to become a hit single.

Release Date: July 26th

Nelson Mandela with great-granddaughter Zenani

Nelson Mandela’s great-granddaughter Zenani Mandela was killed in a car crash yesterday.

The 13 year old was on the way home from the World Cup kick off concert when the accident happened.

Johannesburg Metro police spokeswoman Edna Mamonyane disclosed that the driver of the car had been arrested and charged with drunk driving.

Mandela and his family were “torn up” by the accident, the foundation added.

It’s been also reported that Nelson’s former wife Winnie Mandela was treated for shock at a hospital after being informed of the accident and the death of her great-granddaughter.

She has since been discharged.

Rest In Peace Zenani Mandela

Every up and coming artist should watch this.

Sad….

So the mighty J-Hova is “King Of America” now is he?

Complete and utter nonsense!

Footballer Jermain Defoe is a clown!

I am a bit of a control freak. If I get married, my wife isn’t going out. No way. She’s staying at home. She’s not going out to clubs without me. I’ve already decided the rules, whoever she is. [The Sunday Mirror Magazine - Celebs On Sunday]

I wonder if Jermain was actually being serious when he said this….

Then again it might explain why none of his ‘relationships’ stand the test of time, because the women he tends to go for are far from the ’stay at home’ types.

Hailing from South London Comedians  KG & Marston who brought us Shadrack & The Mandem, are back with hilarious new creation Caramel.

Caramel, London’s R&B duo. Faison, and Dajuan. London’s best R&B group, who have sold over 2 million records, worldwide. Music produced by Tripleseven Music. Lemonade Money Records.

Finally some current British comedians who are genuinely funny!

UK artist Orie has just released the videos to his  singles  Zonin and Fly With Me.

Check it out below.

The intro goes on for too long and the vocals sound slightly off-key and shaky, but perhaps this was done deliberately for effect???

However this is the type of dance track that will probably get some air play in other parts of Europe.

The video -  I don’t really understand it, but that’s one interesting looking blond chick.
