Estelle is a Freak?

Rapper-turned-singer (just kiddin)... Artist Estelle returns to our ears with her new single Freak, features Candian rapper (with dancehall flavour) Kardinal Offishall, produced by hit-maker David Guetta (I Got A Feelin by Black Eyed Peas gets wheels on decks).



Well, whether or not I find her attractive, she isn't a universally recognised sex symbol. I feel this will make it slightly harder for her to sell this song. Beat/bass dominates the track too much for me, so to me, it doesn't sound like her song; more a dance/producer compilation CD. Will knock in clubs.

I said whether or not I find her attractive, but I can catergorically state I most definitely wood! I don't segregate or discriminate/ get into that whole light-skin, dark-skin debate; it's all made of the same stuff... skin stuff innit! So if you think she's too dark gelloutahere! She wasn't much a looker in Trixta with Blak Twang, nor 1980, but that could have been down to the whole rapping thing.



Let's be honest, if a female depends on a swing vote, unless she is an undoubted stunner like Lil Kim (early days), Foxy Brown (Broken Silence times), Eve after the peppergrains grew out (Who's That Girl times), Trina or most recently Nicki Minaj (anytime!), femcees don't get that love. Shystie and Baby Blue are aaaalright, but it's debatable. Get my point?

Post 'American Boy' times I've been a fan. Her sister H-Boogie is sexy bad! Estelle/H-Boogie, if you read this holla at me. The beat knocks + knockers = anticipating the vid. All the best with the success of this tune. I like Estelle as a person (don't know her, I rate her grind, struggle and honesty).

Hold tight UK rapper Sway commenting on my blogpost about him Sway's new song... do we care?, then holla'in on Twitter: @Sway_Dcypha: @MarvinSparks read your Sway... Do we still care write up... Interesting...

    I really like this Estelle Joint. It has my vote.
    And I love the beat. It's Serious. Defo one tune that will be in the clubs and be rinsed out like American Boy was.

Marvin Sparks caught up with the hip hop legend to discuss rapping for drug dealers, people caring "more about stats than raps", his inclusion in MTV's Top 10 Hottest Rappers list, and converting to Islam. Marvin Sparks: It has been almost fifteen years since the first Only Built For Cuban Linx, an album that was a 5-mic classic when The Source magazine held weight. Why did you decide make a sequel?

50 Cent premieres Rick Ross Baby Mother Sex Tape

If you aren't familiar with the beef between Pimpin Curly and Officer Ricky, get familyar! Originates from Rick Ross dissin 50 on The Inkredibles produced banger Mafia Music. "We're steppin on your crew 'til the motherfucker's crushed And making sweet love to every woman that you lust I love to pay her bills, cant wait to pay her rent Curtis Jackson baby mother aint askin for a cent Burn the house down, you gotta buy another..."

White band win Reggae Grammy x Koffee x Skillibeng

So a white American reggae band called Soja won the Best Reggae album award at the Grammy's? And you care because? You feel Jamaicans are losing reggae because the Grammy's (a white institution) gave their white American man award to a white American reggae band? You blame the Jamaican government for not showing enough love and support to the music because this is the result? But you don't realise you are giving the Grammy's that much power and don't see where the problem lies? Well let me tell you; the problem is within you. I understand the outrage. Jamaicans built the music and are rarely compensated for all the hard graft. There have been countless examples of the music being used by someone else, often to better results because we live in an ignorant and racist Western world. Historically, white reggae artists like The Police or UB40 are able to achieve better results in the white man's world than reggae artists that are far superior to them. Bruno Mars , J...
