RIP the fallen soliders in WW1. Today is rememberance day if you didn't know.

Kano responds to Jay-Z

"SoulCulture.TV caught up with Kano the day after Jay-Z’s BBC shout-out to explore his thoughts on the compliment (noting, “There’s one thing someone knowing you and there’s one thing someone liking you”) and why he may have caught Jigga’s ear. He also talks about meeting Hov several years ago and their mutual views on retaining UK artistic integrity."



Kano's LAUGHING! Let the breddin, hatin and begging for collab's begin...

Random Tune of the Day: Wet Wet Wet 'Love Is All Around'

If you don't rate this song, we can't be friends. This song spent so long at number 1. Hated it them days. I always wanted something young and fun to be number 1. I grew to like this soon after though, which lead to me being upset I didn't appreciate seeing it every week on Top of the Pops.



New: Yasmin 'On My Own'

Made its debut on Mista Jam's BBC Radio 1Xtra show last night. "Jam's Jury" is a part of the show where listeners call it guilty or innocent of being a banger. Most of the listeners voted this "Guilty of being a banger"

I actually caught the end of the tune (watching the boring Manchester derby). But here it is. Like the lyrics and concept, beats good apart from the drum roll thingy at the end of every single bar. Would have preferred it to be a 4 bar drum loop rather than one. Producer Shy FX is the daddy of Jungle by the way.

Dem Free Buju... kinda

Reggae star Buju Banton has been granted bail by an immigration court in Florida while he awaits a retrial on drug charges.

The Jamaican was released from jail after Bob Marley's son, Stephen, put up his own $300,000 (£186,000) home as collateral.

Struggle still continues but at least he's out on road. I heard about the Stephen Marley bit in bold a few weeks ago. Such a good man. Piss take that Buju has to go back to give regular samples of his, erm, piss (couldn't resist). They won't let him bun a piece of marijuana. It's a part of his religion.

Maverick Sabre's mixtape

If you've been visiting over the past year you will have spotted this name before. I fully banged on about this guy. Put him in my "Looking forward to hearing more from" list back in January. Basically, Irish kid born in Stoke Newington, east LDN (where the man dem boop boop boop), sounds like Finley Quaye, hip hop x folk x reggae x grime influences. We'll just say reggae cos it's all reggae innit?

Features on Professor Green's new tune Jungle



I don't like something about this video.

Haven't listened to it yet, but I'm sure it will be sick!

Marvin Sparks x Raekwon interview

Wu-Tang's in-house "Chef" better known as Raekwon proved he is still a force to be mentioned alongside the hottest rappers in the hip hop game with the release of Only Built For Cuban Linx... pt. II - sequel to his 1995 debut album. 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.

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...
