Feeling this video, even if it does remind me of Jay-Z, for a number of reasons, including the MIA/Santigold sound-a-like sample on the hook!! Dude's got flow and bars, with a chain and watch to let you know he's bout it bout it!

Fresh reggae hip hop straight out of Brixton. This one over the classic Shyne and Barrington Levy track 'Bad Boys'.

VOLUME CONTROL edition 1 DOT ROTTEN - THUNDER

Episode one of what looks to be a great series of videos. Who better to kick it off with than Dot Rotten?! Interesting video format as well... watch and see...s/o to Hyperfrank.

5 February 2011

Video: Juelz Santana – Home Run (Feat Lil Wayne)

Juelz and Weezy F. Baby team up for this slightly predictable but none-the-less heavy tune... These guys work well together and Juelz is some what under-rated in 2011! As an all rounded mainstream rapper he's representing NYC to the fullest!

Download: Rewd Adams - Rewd Awakening

The artist formerly known as Skandal welcomes you to Rewd Adams' world with his new album, for free. This is not only streets ahead of most of the 'UK hip hop scene' (Whatever you perceive that to mean) but also a promising look at what's to come! Check the trailer below but before you watch it...




This is my favourite track off the album, featuring the ever-ill Black the Ripper.. hopefull we'll see more collabs between these two in the future.

Masssive link up here - Flexplicit who's also known as Flex the Truth links up with Detroit's Royce da 5'9 who's certainly one of my favourite underground US rappers (and my favourite member of Slaughterhouse)! Have to say I'm surprised to see Black the Ripper on here, considering he had a recent Twitter beef with Royce!! Big tune tho, respect to all involved...

Video: Ed Sheeran 'No. 5 Collaborations' interview

VidMy new interview with Ed Sheeran who hit #2 on the itunes chart with his 'No. 5 Collaborations' project which featured the CREAM of the grime scene including wiley, p money, ghetts, dot rotten, JME and more!

WRETCH 32 and JEREMY KYLE - The inevitable has happened

Great PR for the guy tho! All congrats are due to Wretch for hitting no. 5 in the national charts with Traktor, and retaining his dignity as a real lyricist! On top of that the tune's not poppy/commercial/sell out!!
It's definitely refreshing that Jeremy Kyle plays along with it!
