UK MUSIC: WRETCH 32 FT JOSH KUMRA – ‘DON’T GO’

July 14, 2011

People seem to be losing their minds over Wretch 32 and his new single Don’t Go featuring singer Josh Kumra.  I just listened to it for the first time today and it will probably do well in the charts.  This is a “love rap/song” and Wretch looks all “sad” and “vulnerable” in the video (fantastic acting), so this should melt the hearts of all the teenage girls out there.

The forthcoming UK film Suicide Kids starring Robert Sheehan, Ashley Walters and N-Dubz star Tulisa Contostavlos is dead!  Okay perhaps that’s a slight exaggeration – there has just been a name change. Suicide Kids was supposed to be released on June 10th and for the past 5 months leading up to that date the makers released a countless stream of mini promo videos featuring a bunch of known faces and randoms each listing their three reasons to live.
