‘AIM’ is one of the most disappointing albums in recent years, the fact that it comes from the once credible M.I.A. it’s even more of a letdown. In one of my previous articles, I compared M.I.A. to Madonna – someone who found cutting edge producers to make her […]
Following a natural disaster or an act of terrorism, social media is awash with thousands and sometimes millions of meaningless tweets and posts. It seems that the masses instead of helping or ignoring a tragic event, would rather post an empty gesture like a “prayer” before getting on […]
One completely unexpected outcome of the Brexit vote was the strange and unfathomable reaction to the result itself. June 24th 2016 aside from marking the date that Britain left a corrupt, money-grabbing federal state, was also the day that I finally realised how fake the majority of people […]
Every time we have a public vote, the media and the government love to separate people along a stereotypical left/right divide, and now that the EU Referendum is coming up, these same contrived and polarising ideas are being flogged to the public once more. When it comes to […]
The Martian is one of those films that was wildly overrated when it was first released, including many rave reviews from critics and members of the public, but now that I’ve had the chance to watch it I have no idea what all the fuss was about. The […]
During the late nineties when reality shows like “Big Brother” and “Pop Idol” increased in popularity, members of the public began saying “I want to be famous for nothing” rather than “I want to be the best at something” and this desire for undeserved fame slowly supplanted the […]
This week, Azealia Banks was suspended from Twitter following a racist and homophobic diatribe aimed at One Direction’s Zayn Malik, but for me this was an example of double standards by the mainstream media. If you’re a regular on Twitter, you’ll know all too well that it only […]
Azealia Banks is an attention-seeking twat, she is more famous for her Twitter squabbles than she is for her songs, surely as a “Rapper” she should pay more attention to her music? If she put as much energy into making her mediocre Hip-House as she does her ranting, […]
The word “hater” is nothing new, it was extremely overused in the nineties, in fact it began to gain so much momentum that it subsequently overran into the noughties. The word has even become a horridly hoary term in the teenies thanks to the appropriation of Hip-Hop culture. […]
That whole Trap sound has been grating on the ears for a while now, it was okay in 2010, ’11, ’12 but it’s fast becoming a homogenised and indistinguishable mess. The majority of Trap is mediocre, it possesses none of the credibility of Boom Bap, none of the […]
The show Gogglebox proves how far terrestrial television has fallen over the past decade and a half. Lost in a sea of Reality TV and motivated by low cost and high returns, Channel 4‘s best concept is for us at home to watch people on TV as they […]
Whitewashing in film is the practice of casting a white Actor for a role originally intended for someone of colour. In a previous article I wrote about white Actors donning black, brown, or yellow-face to “accurately” play minority roles, but this time I thought I’d write about something […]
Contemporary men’s fashion seems to be going through a period of stagnancy and almost everything you see on today’s man is an amalgamation of clothing and accessories worn over the last decade. As a rule of thumb, anything underground is cool and anything overground is lame, and anything […]
