GRIME'S BEST KEPT SECRET
Current mood:

bouncy
Category: Blogging

BLESS BEATS TO RELEASE SINGLE 'THE RAIN'

Labelled “grime’s hardest working producer” by Dazed and Confused and having worked with the who’s who of the genre, Bless Beats has firmly established himself within the UK grime scene. The man behind Wiley’s ‘Wearin My Rolex’ is now about to take centre stage with the single ‘The Rain’.

The first cut to be lifted from debut album ‘My Interpretation’, the track features vocals from the hotly-tipped Charlie Brown and lyrics from Wiley. The combination of the three is already proving successful, with early support from Radio 1’s Tim Westwood.

The Rain is out 23 August.

YOUNG NATE DEBUT EP ‘A PIECE OF ME’
Category: Music

Young Nate the 18 year-old north Londoner finally releases his much anticipated offering ‘A Piece of Me’ – an 8-track EP which has had the music industry and fans alike buzzing for months. Credited for injecting a much-needed boost into the UK’s R&B scene, Young Nate has been described as UK’s answer to US superstar Ne-Yo by his peers – a title which he humbly struggles to acknowledge.

The singer/songwriter recently celebrated the success of his debut single ‘I Wonder,’ a heartfelt ballad based on a young mans pain of a bitter relationship break-up.

“Everything on this EP is based on real experiences,” The record is the perfect blend of up-tempo songs and ballads and with stand out tracks such as ‘Mixed Messages’ featuring MOBO Award winner Chipmunk, the funky house inspired ‘Wine It Gal’ featuring Gracious. K‘, ‘Set U 3ree/Waste Man’ and ‘Like That’, A Piece of Me promises not to leave fans disappointed and definitely wanting more.

Young Nate will be touring across the UK over the summer and you can catch him at

Current mood:

eccentric
Category: Blogging

Remember this?

Well, now Loon the Bad Boy is this:

Yes, this is real.

So what is it about Bad Boy that makes rappers ~~get bumped~~ go missing?

Nortorious B.I.G - Murdered
Mase - Born again Christian
Loon - Muslim servant
G-Dep – MIA – if you find him let me know
Shyne - Incarcerated

I've got alot of love for Young Joc and Red Cafe. Hope they learn the lessons from their predecessors.

We'll see...
