Can anyone confirm whether or not if this is a legit casting? There isn’t an official website (that I can see) that provides further information. UPDATE: I have been informed that this casting is in fact legit!

Tinchy Stryder and Maverick Sabre were challenged by Twin B to create a new track from scratch with students from the DV8 College, as part of 1Xtra’s Schools Tour. Check out what they came up with… ………………….. I hope those students put in the same amount of energy and show this level of interest when it comes to settling down and studying those books! Anyway couldn’t they come up with a more imaginative track title and concept? It’s time the UK retired […]

Tabloid rag The Sun like every other newspaper this morning has news of the tragic events that took place in Norway yesterday splashed across their front page. But instead of doing the necessary research the editorial team opted instead to report online speculation as fact and were quick to vilify the Muslim community (once again) by blaming this atrocity on ‘Islamic extremists’. The idiots! Click HERE to read about the attacks in Norway. Rest In Peace to all those who lost their […]

I have met several women who say they have given up on hairdressers due to far too many bad experiences and now opt to wash, treat and style their own hair. After a rather unfortunate hair experience several months ago I can’t say I blame them. Earlier this year I was bored with my usual hairstyle so my hairdresser suggested I try ‘Pick and Drop’ braids. The ‘Pick and Drop’ style involves braiding long extensions in to your hair, stopping just as […]

I don’t know how I feel about this track. But it is different and for once Dizzee isn’t spitting over a Techno/Dance beat. That’s a nice change for him. As for D Double E… I don’t know what to think…. Haha. What does Bluku Bluku mean? Your thoughts please? Hit or Miss?

Jay-Z and Kanye West have sampled the late great Otis Redding’s classic Try A Little Tenderness on the track titled ‘Otis’, taken from their highly anticipated collaboration album Watch The Throne. ………………………… A Jay-Z and Kanye collaboration hits the Internet and people lose their minds. They love it – “it’s fire” they scream. But in my opinion Otis is far from “fire”. It’s just borderline OK and nothing to write home about. Rest In Peace Otis Redding. Your thoughts please. Hit or Miss?

Last week I posted the news that UK artist Skepta’s new single Dare To Dream had been removed from YouTube and passed on to golden boy Eminem by Interscope Records founder Jimmy Iovine (Click HERE to read all about it). And since then it’s been revealed just how this all went down. Website Torrent Freak writes, After “Dare to Dream” was put up on YouTube one of its early listeners was Jimmy Iovine, founder of Interscope records. Recognizing quality, Iovine had plans […]

………………. MC Harvey and Mista Brown have teamed up with Reggae star Gyptian on the new single Hot Gyal. I don’t think this collaboration works. Mista Brown and Harvey don’t really bring that much to the track. They just look and sound like your average run of the mill UK rapper in 2011 – dull! Gyptian without a doubt steals the show here. I would even go as far as saying that the single should just feature Gyptian. The video – It looks like it was filmed in […]
