British comedian Jason Lewis’ new comedy sketch show Sniggers With Attitude will air soon on the BBC, but in the meantime check out this clip from the show.

VIBE MAGAZINE FRONT COVER (JUNE ISSUE 2010) – NICKI MINAJ

Via Punchbowl Blog Nicki Minaj on a personal level is probably a really nice woman. But she is a TERRIBLE artist. You know what?  The way the industry is trying to force her down our throats, her music, her image, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs taking her under his wing… it’s just comical. All I can do right now is laugh.

UK NEWS: MARK KERMODE REVIEWS SEX AND THE CITY 2

My favourite film critic Mark Kermode reviews Sex And The City 2 and SLAUGHTERS it. I love Mark! Hilarious! Sex And The City just doesn’t work on the big screen. The first film was a let down. I remember when the show was about the friendship between the four women first, then the relationships, and last but not least the fashion/lifestyle. Now the film franchise just seems focused on the fashion and product placement. They should have just focused on making another series. Forget []

That tabloid rag The Sun, currently the “number 1 source” for UK “Urban” music news, will probably report soon that music industry executives Stateside are going “CRAZY” for Plan B and his “new sound”. I bet the wheels have already been set in motion for Plan []

UK NEWS: DIZZIE RASCAL SAYS HE’S ‘NO SELL OUT’

Dizzee Rascal wants us to know that he is not a ‘sell out’, and has dismissed claims that his new single ‘Dirtee Disco’ is mainstream cheesy trash. He disclosed to the ridiculous Daily Star that, “People say I’m selling out but it doesn’t get to me anymore. It depends on what people mean by selling out, and who’s saying it. “Some people think it’s morally wrong of me to not ‘keep it real’ but a lot of the time this is coming from drug dealers and robbers.
