Kano on 'Game Over'

Spotted this over at Soul Culture. This isn't another Kano jacking and stomping all over someone else's beat like Pow! 2011. This has an interesting background:

"Having collaborated together in 2006 on Kano‘s “Hustler” remix from 140 Grime St, Swedish rapper Lazee and Kano teamed up again in Stockholm, summer 2009 to record some tracks with producer Ishi. One of these tracks was “Game Over”, a record you’ll probably recognise as Tinchy Stryder‘s latest release. Watch below as Lazee & Kano vocal the first version of the “Game Over” production in the studio before it became Tinchy’s cut."



Full track:



You hear he used the "Hood like little Red Riding" as he did on Pow! 2011?

Random Flashback: Wiley x Kano x Ghetts 'She Glows'

Received airplay on 1Xtra, not sure where it charted. Let's be honest this song is absolute garbage. Randomly crossed my mind today. 3 of grime's greatest lyricists ever put out this nonsense.



lol @ the extra's doing the electric slide throughout the vid. That's on par with directors sticking breakdance in videos. It worked for 21 Seconds but the rest of you need to cut it out.

And what the hell was the skank Ghetts doing at the end of the vid. Ghetts skankin is one of the things no one should ever see.

This period of grime was funny. Not gonna lie. I wonder if they cringe about this.

Marvin Sparks blogs for Musicology

Yeah so I've added another avenue to the resume. Check out my piece on Jah Cure's 'Like I See It' with Ricky Ross here

Other things should be poppin soonish.

Tune of the Day: Jah Cure 'Jah Jah Bless Me'

One of my favourite Jah Cure ever. So much love for this tune here. #RandomFact I never knew this was Jah Cure singing until a couple years back. Used to hear it on radio but never knew who it was. My reggae/dancehall credibility is so high that I can tell you that and feel no way.

"I know Jah Jah bless me/ No wicked heart can test me/ No matter how they try" I beg someone tell me of another genre that a song like this gets a massive response alongside what many consider as negative songs (gun and slackness)... It's alright I can wait...



Richie Spice 'Earth A Run Red' is a killer track too

Maaaan, this is that real music. Sorry, but nothing compares to reggae. NOTHING!



Geogia: We Are London



If I said I didn't kinda fancy her I'd be lying. And with that being said, I'm gonna lie... Big up your chest reppin your ends

Fan get Drake face shaved into HIS head

Jacked from PunchBowl

What the hell is going on with this world?! If a girl did an Amber Rose bawlhead then weird but ok I accept you can be bessotted by him. But a man? Really? REALLY?!

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?

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...
