I have always found BBC Radio personality / Hip Hop DJ Tim “Big Dawg” Westwood funny, while others have accused him of being just damn right rude at times. But after watching this throwback interview from late 2008 where Westwood interviewed singer Craig David and fellow radio personality DJ Spoony, I now see exactly what they mean. There seemed to be a lot of animosity in the air. Craig looks visibly uncomfortable, Spoony is trying his hardest to remain professional, and when Westwood drags Reggae DJ Chris Goldfinger in to the mix […]

JLS are back with the new single Eyes Wide Shut featuring the man of the moment Tinie Tempeh. Believe it or not I really like this track, but don’t understand why they felt the need to feature Tinie. Eyes Wide Shut could have done without the rapping. But because Tinie is the “man of the moment” I’m guessing that he has just been included for the sake of it. Your thoughts please. Hit or Miss?

Hit or Miss?

I prefer the original version and see absolutely no point in releasing this version. But I guess Lethal has his own reasons for doing this, instead of creating a new hit anthem from scratch for 2011. Your thoughts please. Hit or Miss?
