UK COMEDY EVENT: THE LOL SHOW – ABOUT 2 BLOW

February 13, 2013

LOL Show presents UK Tour ”About 2 Blow”. A live stand up and improv show featuring 7 of the Britain’s most talked about young urban comics such as Babatunde, Axel, Mikey Carpenter, Dane Baptiste, Aurie Styla, Mo The Comedian and Travis Jay. “URBAN” comics? is this now the acceptable term used when describing black comics?

WEB DOCUMENTARY SERIES: NOISEY JAMAICA (EPISODE 2 – POPCAAN)

February 11, 2013

I don’t know how I feel about this web documentary series that is supposed to be about Dancehall culture and is co-executive produced by Snoop Dogg aka ‘Snoop Lion’ 😦 In episode 1 the narrator reveals that she was born and raised in Jamaica but you don’t sense any real connection there. She sounds like a stranger who is just discovering Jamaica and it’s music scene for the first time. Episode 2 just makes me cringe for a number of reasons. The world does not need to see ridiculous groupies hanging around rehearsal studios and a young […]
