socially responsible? Yes, As fun? Probably not....

As with absolutely everything in life, even vandalising public transport has gone digital.

The internet turned all our wild trouble-making passionate youths, into lazy, seat jockeys with a PC instead of a personality!



Thank you Bill Gates.

9th Wonder and David Banner - Slow Down

I'm not the biggest David Banner fan but I love 9th's production to the death, they're working on an LP together named Death Of A Pop Star, and I believe this is the one of the singles from it.
The video is meant to have a few hidden connotations in it,and at first I could only spot a couple but it took a Youtube commentator to school me.

So Watch the video and spot some weird shi*


42012jburnna breaks it down like this :

Paper money is most peoples god, whilst the Pigs represent greed. The headphones are meant to be icons of Dr.Dre's latest business venture, that are feeding "bullshit" music to children and everyone else turning them into monsters...you know when they go all green and what not. Whilst the skull and cross bones on the Starbucks cup symbolise the poison foods we eat, provided by equally poisonous multinational companies.

Whether you agree or not the beat proves 9th wonder is a genius, and the video is better than most generic hip hop visuals we're used to.

Holla.

Note: He didn't explain the stone faced matrixy people running about and disappearing. *Kanye Shrug*

SUPPORT...























So Giggs' XL recordings debut 'Let em have it' hit stores today! cop it on itunes for £7.99 or do what i'm doing & grab the special edition cd with the bonus disc...

Its a big deal for UK music, Giggs hasn't compromised his own style which is something every other UK act except for Dizzee Rascal on 'Boy In Da Corner' has had to do. He has creative control so he's done it his own way, no crossover attempts, no collabs with other so called big UK artists...Raw UK Hip Hop at its best!

Make sure you support!

What a let down...

It has recently occured to me that almost EVERYTHING that I've been anticipating of late has been a let down...

The World Cup: England have been over shite, Brazil dont look like Brazil, Spain are air, Argentina have been alright, Portugal lit things up today with the 7-0 parrage of North Korea but its not living up to the hype!

Drake's album: Ive had it since it leaked 3 weeks ago...the only songs I actually bump are 'Show me a good time' 'Unforgettable' & 'Light up'. This time last year I was still bumping 80% of 'So far gone' which I'd had for 5 months...fail!

Summer: It all started so well, heatwave in April & weve had days of summer here & there but its june & sunny mornings followed by overcoast breezy afternoons & cold nights are not the ting!

But....

This week my saving grace approaches, GLASTONBURY...






Last year was my 1st time going & it blew me away! The weather forecasting motherfuckers are predicting good things, the line up looks niiice, im gonna be djing most nights, the YoYo gang are throwing a party too...

Fingers Crossed!

Hate Football, Love Great Ideas

Since the advent of Youtube (which recently celebrated it's 5th birthday) we've seen a completely new form of advertising.

30 sec adverts were always limited to that time frame, because TV time is really expensive, so a craft was developed in 30 second messages.

However, the fact that most online video hosting is free, their is potentially hours of footage to be put online, that is easily accessible, and can be watched repeatedly, and most crucially, shared amongst peers, means that the advertising industry has changed completely.

The widespread availability of digital cameras, and free hosting websites, that get billions of hits a day, means that instead of blowing a massive budget on a 30 second advert advertisers are increasingly basing content on strong ideas, visuals and music.

This means the crap quickly disappears, and great ideas like this, are a winner.
