miRecommend: Ed Sheeran

Touched down at one of them showcase thingy's called Wired yesterday. Man like Lawrence Gichgi (http://onceabartender.blogspot.com/) informed me that Pixie Lott performed the previous month, and Amy Winehouse was in the house gulping wine* (gulping wine may or may not be true, I put it in there for the lolz).

Couple acts were there but stand out artist for the night was this guy Ed Sheeran. Me and my girl Leats (http://thatgirlleatz.blogspot.com/) are fans. Coincidentally, keyhole to the roads SBTV (http://sbtv.co.uk/) uploaded a video of him on Sunday (see below). Ed Sheeran is one of these urban accoustic artists that I'm feeling - the other being Maverick Sabre. Tune in



He had the same thingy he uses to record the beat on the spot last night. Never seen it in my life. That alone blew me away let alone his voice. Broke into Welcome To Jamrock last night much to the crowds pleasure. Both him & Maverick Sabre seem to have urban influences including reggae, social commentary and play a guitar = WIN! I'm wouldn't say one is better than the other; they're similar but have different delivery. Maverick Sabre is much harsher, and less of a singer in comparison. Remember when Plan B was like this?

Check out this tune too



If you're wondering who this Maverick Sabre geezer is, I blogged him as one of the acts I'm looking forward to hearing more from in 2010, and here is a vid



Out now, cop if you like

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...
