Every day there are more and more musicians who change their style in order to “crossover” to the mainstream. None more so than Katy B, who with her follow-up to the 2011 album “On A Mission”, has created such an obvious attempt at sucking up to Pop Music, […]
Sub-Culture styles are only genuine when they are first created. If you were a “Punk” in the late seventies, you meant business. If you dressed “Hip-Hop” in the late eighties, you meant business. Ever since the nineties however, with the arrival of mass-production and mass-marketing; Sub-Culture fashion has […]
What is the point in the MOBO Awards? What started as a wannabe BET-cum-Source-Award-knockoff has slowly become shittier and shittier over the years. The longer this lame excuse of an award show goes on, the more it seems to sell-out. I mean having Jessie J, Ed Sheeran, and […]
MTV is lame; plain and simple. It has always tried to give an impression of being “cool” and “underground”, with its colour-changing logo complete with a spray-painted graffiti-style “TV” against a solid-looking “M”. In reality MTV is far from cool. From the minute they played the mundane “Video […]
It’s 2013 and Hip-Hop is almost dead thanks to a handful of lame faux-MC’s that spurt out the same lyrical content on every track they spit on. Contrivances like “Clubs”, “Cars”, “Clothing Labels”, and “Champagne” is all these cunts seem to yap on about. If it weren’t for […]
From the minute we hear Jay-Z’s faux-A$AP-Rocky flow on the first track of Magna Carta… Holy Grail, we are reminded of how tired this old rapper has now become. Jay-Z has gone from being a wannabe Jaz-O, wannabe Biggie, wannabe Nas, wannabe Russell Simmons, to wannabe credible. With […]
Glastonbury was never in the same league as Woodstock or Monterey Pop. It was however, a festival which, with its juxtaposed atmosphere of open green country and electric guitars, became a British staple for Indie Rock lovers and left-wing hippies. Even though the festival began with Glam Rock, […]
Dr. Dre is a great example of media spin and blatant lies. He is sold to the public as some sort of Great business Genius, one of the Greatest producers, and the Godfather of Gangsta Rap. The only place in reality that Dre is a “G” however; is […]
Eminem is an extremely over-hyped media creation. If all of the undue praise he receives from corrupt mainstream critics was removed, it would be obvious that he is a mediocre rapper, producer, and actor. If you look closely into his eyes, you can see that even Marshall Mathers […]
Ever since the sun set on the Golden-Age of Hip-Hop, fans and the industry alike have been looking for a Savior to kick-start a new Rap epoch. However, when an entire culture is on a constant lookout for a Hip-Hop Second Coming; they collectively end up lauding someone […]
Timbaland and Pharrell Williams are walking, talking, and producing examples of musicians who have sold-out. These two Virginian Pop-whores managed to take a genre famed for its grimy sound, and over a decade metamorphose it into modern-day Disco trash. Because of these two money-hungry bitches, Hip-Hop will never […]
In Autumn last year, I found myself cringing while I watched Trinidad James’ “All Gold Everything” on YouTube. At the time I optimistically assumed that a lame joint like this would fizzle away, but it seems Trinidad James and this bullshit track are refusing to die down. Even […]
Hip-Hop as a genre has completely sold out over the last decade and become a mass advertisement for clothing labels and expensive objects. The majority of rappers these days are constantly, both lyrically and visually, promoting products which are out of reach for so many working class fans. […]
