Most of you will know by now that I don’t have much time for rap/grime acts from these shores (bar a few) but this performance (believe it or not) was the only highlight (for soooooooo many reasons ha ha) of an other wise uneventful and painful evening. I would like to hear Jay-Z, Eminem, Fabolous and Kanye rapping over this beat. Anyway your thoughts on the performance please. Hit or Miss?

Only Girl In The World is taken from Rihanna’s forthcoming album Loud. This track would have gone down a storm in a rave, out in Ibiza during the early 90s. Your thoughts please. Hit or Miss?

It’s been reported that rapper Nelly will headline this years MOBO (Music Of Black Origin) awards, which will take place on the 20th October in Liverpool. If this is true then why have Nelly headline the event? If this was 2000/2002 then it would make sense because he was at the height of his popularity then. But booking him as the headline act in 2010 makes no sense. When was the last time he released any new music? I wonder how many […]

You Are The One is the debut single from singer Nadine Charles, taken from the EP Introducing Miss Charles. You Are The One has got that old skool 80s Soul vibe going on. I love it! And the same goes for the video, which also features singer Kele LeRoc. Your thoughts please. Hit or Miss?

People were losing there minds over So Appalled after it hit the net last night. The track featuring rappers that I know and one I’ve never heard of before (Cyhi The Prynce) left me scratching my head. I was confused. Sorry but am I missing something here? What is so great about this track??? Also this line “champagne wishes, thirty white bitches” is a highly inappropriate line to spit. Imagine the the backlash and fall out (and rightfully so) if a white […]

The choice of clothing, adult hairstyle, public appearances and photoshoot in Paris all make sense now. Anyway check out Willow’s debut single Whip My Hair. LISTEN Young girls (6-10 year olds) will LOVE this track. It’s cute and catchy. Your thoughts please. Hit or Miss?

When I first heard about this collaboration (Kanye’s idea) I looked at a picture of Raekwon taken during the glorious Wu-Tang era and sighed. Die hard Raekwon / Wu-Tang fans must all be looking up to the sky and shaking their heads in despair. Check out some of the comments below posted on The Smoking Section website. Raekwon’s verse was actually dope…why are you giving him all the sh*t? If anyone should be getting smacked it’s Kanye. WHY IS KANYE MOLESTING MY CHILDHOOD!? I can understand why Bieber wanted […]
