He is BACK.. after taking a step back to work on a few films including '4.3.2.1' and his second album (titled TBC) This is definitely a long awaited track (for me at least!) Using Baby D's classic 'Let Me Be Your Fantasy', Bashy has made a track that will be rinsed all summer, I can picture it already (reeeewiiind!) !! The track is expected to be released roundabout the time he does his first official gig @ o2 Islington in early September... Its been a minute... Welcome back!


Can I start with..."looooooooooool".... I never thought Lowkey would ever go on this tip, but i guess he felt strongly enough to do it. Known for his political lyrics and speeches this was definitely not expected. Some people have commented on how Lowkey should have never sunk to this level..but in his defense... he is allowed to just kill someone lyrically for the fun of it... it certainly had me LOL throughout the entire track! Big track! Don't get me wrong, Chimpmunk has done good for himself but for everytime I've seen him, he seems very up himself.. soo I guess Lowkey was simply "grounding" him! Ima attach the lyrics coz its tooo funny and gonna highlight my fave lyrics......." "pregnant head!!!" (ROTFL) You are not the grime scene saviour
You sly weak hater
A little pop tart that owes wiley favours
And doesn't really understand these shystie majors
They sell your pop songs to these nice teenagers
And don't get me wrong you might be famous
But they buy green acres
You buy me trainers (Nikes)
You were more real as an id faker
Make enough love songs and you might see paper
When you see 1, the label see a hundred crispy bills
That is what happens when you sign 360 deals
Give this chump a little chance, punch you in his heart
Got signed for a chump then bumped for his advance
Getting hyped cos sum 12 year olds felt your song
But what you gonna do when all the little girls are gone
You'll be as frail as the songs you got wealthy from
And be a tiny little dancer for elton john
You aint even worth the ink in my fingertips
Does this little midget really fink he's a lyricist?
The drink from my flippin sink is a privilege
Copy jay z and make your fingers a pyramid
Keep making soulless music your fans buy
But jam your hype and hang tight with your damp rhymes
Hearing you is sad like watching ants die
But people know the truth bashing your hand signs
Am not telling anybody to get hostile
This is just a hobby I feel sorry for this lost child
Chipmunk chipmunk chipmunk chipmunk
Lyrical skill isn't measured by your income
They tell me leave the kid alone
He's faker that silicone
My lyrics expose reveal the soul of this jiga clone Little jigga minnie me, didn't sleep just twitter beef
Still its peak for this little meek in his skinny jeans
Should I snap fingers, end all tweeting, take off ma slipper get parental beating
Sword razor tongue/ means your days are done/ this yout is big headed in more ways than one
You diss vex but you spit wet
Little Princess, Sony is searching for the next bigheads to pick next, you not hard Lil pop tart
Think you got bars
U might top charts
but lyrically u flopped hard
Silly voice pretty boy that shaves his eyebrows
Grime scenes very own amy winehouse
Ur loopy lately
Could you be crazy
What kinda man calls a rap song oopsy daisy
I'm a real mc they won't forget me
fill up your bank account your soul is empty
If u getting vexed asks you what u represent
U can't get respect u talk about of the devils breds
And the money u made will mean nothing when you're dead
so think when u get that deep thought through your pregnant head
If u get depressed u can pay for next tattoos
Or phone up your mandem jls to back u
Pick the wrong option
Its likely u got problems
U can't try me I'm not wiley or dot rotten
Not the hardest mc far from the best rapper
Not in this scene but maybe on xfactor
Hide inside your house cos were sick of your wining mouth
Every sentence will slay the secrets under simon cowell
Stay calm fool when the napalm fools
All the youths on your ends call u 'Hey Arnold'- Ahaaaaaaaa
Gutless diva with a tough demeanor
How does it feel to be the UKs Justin Bieber
If you're a lyricist stop coming with them puppy bars
Talk is cheap u can't walk the street without your bodyguards
If money is nothing why is an issue why you rhyme
Money is nothing can't take it with you when you die
Make another track that says how much cash you're getting
It can't buy u skill credibility or happiness

I don't wanna see people talking about fuck chipmunk after this
It's not about fuck chipmunk
This is just a warning
Yeah
If u keep acting like a boy people are gonna keep treating u like a boy
If u act like a man people will treat u like a man
Just because u got more money and u got a machine behind u
Doesn't make u better lyricist than anybody
What makes u a better lyricist is lyrical skill
Right now u need to choose what u are
Are u a lyricist or are u a pop star
If you're a lyricist do your thing
Say the word
Humble yourself





When I first saw this I was like "huh?"... Then it just made it clear how powerful an unsigned rapper can be using his voice as his only weapon/defense.

Lowkey is known for attending numerous protests and talks, standing out and standing strong as the Voice of the public.
Also known as Kareem Dennis, Lowkey is not just a rapper, hes a poet, a political activist and a Representative of many souls worldwide.

I think this interview has show how far Lowkey has grown as an artist and a person.
"Israel is a terrorist state and now a pirate state."
His words are powerful.. he speaks with confidence and his knowledge is detailed. He isn't just an excited rapper on a hype.. hes a powerful rapper with a lot to say, enough to capture the attention of international waters while risking himself for naming names and speaking the truth.

I can't say it enough.. but Lowkey is truly the Voice of the Voiceless... Well done Brother!

Let the clip speak for itself!





The long awaited mixtape was finally released at the end of April of this year.
ElektRemixed Album is mixtape that DJ RNS has been working on for over 4 months. If you've heard all his other mixes then this is like none other you've heard before.

DJ RNS (AKA
Manotti de Vinci) has stepped out his comfort zone and has experimented with electronica/house music. With the use of some hip hop tracks this mixtape definitely holds a unique flavor and sound.

Personally, I'm not a big fan of electronica or house music but he gets my vote on this mixtape.






















Its free, its fresh and funky, (sound like a cheeeeesy advert) so download it now for FREEE for all you tight people who are scared to let go of their money! :P


To hear other mixtapes click here of visit DJ RNS official page.

Peace and Love.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

The day has finally arrive.. we can officially..LEGALLY download Lowkeys' controversial track entitled "OBAMA NATION".






I recently met a big fan of Lowkey and it just reminded me of how much love there is out there for him. This Love isn't just like an appreciation, it is deeper, more emotionally connected with a lot of passion and belief. This type of love is RARE in the UK music industry.

With no doubt... Lowkey is one most respected rappers in the UK and probably even world wide!

He doesn't have any commercial/mainstream support so make sure to show yours by copping his new track via iTunes, only going to cost 79p...

I turned up at Shepherds Bush Empire just before 6pm... 5:54pm... First in the Queue! (first time EVER!!) Its Mos Def!.. Definitely worth the wait!! .. Obviously all my people where running late.. running on African/Arabic timing! Cha!


Got into the venue.. seated my Tushy in the Balcony section. This section was the closest one can get to Mos Def on Level one!


DJ was on point and the supporting act where really cool. Sadly like most artist Mos Def was running......LATE!!! 10Pm he comes out! .. Begins with Super Magic from his latest album- The Ecstatic!


Super magic black origin freshly out of dopeness
He mainly sang tracks from The Ecstatic.. I was sooo glad he did my favorite track off the album "Auditorium (feat. Slick Rick)" ... I Heart this track A LOT!! Lyrics.. concept, beat and SLICK RIIIIIIIICK!

imma soldier in the middle of iraq

and lookin at me curious, a young Iraqi kid (awww)
carrying laundry, whats wrong G? hungry?
no, gimme oil or get the fuck out my country
and in Arabian barkin other stuff till his moms come grab him and they walk off in a rush



He Also Sang: Revelations..

Better still keep a even dose of each cause until you get justice
You wont get peace peace peace peace peace peace

Twilight Speedball

Every day
Having a goooood time
Every day




Priority

Top priority...peace before everything...God before anything
love before anything...real before everything...home before anyplace...shoot before anything...style and state radiate...
love power slay the hate

Mos Def explained to the audience that he is not longer on a record label and that he is planning to start his own so he will deliever his music personally. He then Went on to sing "His last EVER Heartbreak song".. TAXI.. This was the highlight of the night (b4 meeting him in person of course):
Oh God, Fight back its the war of the hearts..
Angry fights, sleepless nights, Life ain't easy.. but its alright, I've come this far, so why not fly?




Quiet Dog

So and uh rock it, don't stop/ Brooklyn and the kids, heat up your stove top/
bang the empire/ stang the navigatin away/ bring your preservation made the greatest hip-hop!/ the cool-dude swagger look terribly corny/ they flow so petty, unsteady, it's boring/ these dudes ain't throwin, they yawnin/ they need to get off it/ so "wack rap" is all you can call it



During the performance a girl in the crowd who was very drunk kept pushing into girls wearing Hijab, Mos Def immediately got concerned and asked the girl to
"Love my people!.. My Muslim Sisters.."
Later on I saw the girls who got pushed around and Mos Def took them backstage and thanked them and apologized for the girls behavior!! (Owwwwwww!)


He ended the night with "Umi Says"..A classic that everyone can sing along to!


Mos Def showed how humbled he was to be amongst his UK fans! He kept thanking us for coming and on a number of occasions gave shout outs to his Muslim Sisters (Pow!!!!!)


After he sang his final track he unplugged the mic and the DJ played outro tracks and Mos Def began handing out roses to the audience! If only I was on the ground floor! (Darn it!)


He then began to mime the songs being played by the DJ and dancing!


This was such a unique experience! It was a blessing to be part of it!


Lucky for meeeee and my EarthAngel, we met Mos Def at the end of the show!! WOOOOHOO! Its still very Surreal!


I am OFFICIALLY IN LOVE WITH MOS DEF! Jheeez!!


Today is the day!

A friend of mine went to see Mos Def on Tuesday and told me it was amazing, so thats more reason to get excited.

what to wear? hmmm!! Do I got for my old school Retro look? Girly look (haaa..me girly?) or "can't be bothered" look? :S

Final Upload for the pre-hype Mos Def time..







I decided to go on a creative tip, so from now on, any pictures reaching my Facebook page will have some creativity involved!

Thought I might as well Upload some track over the next couple of days to pre-hype me and share the love! :P

Can't Waittt!!! Its gonna be a serious gig!



Shes Baaaaaack!

Everyone has been going on about how controversial the video for 'Window Seat' is.. the fact that she strips down.

True it is a good twist, but the message behind the video itself is so much stronger and meaningful then a bit of Booootaay.

In the beginning of the the Video, a radio clip is used that is very similar to the radio transcript that was aired as JFK reached the same location to where Erykah filmed her video.

Mz Badu Walks through the streets of Dallas, going down the exact route that JFA walked through before being murdered. As she walks down the street she begins to remove items of clothing before she ends up naked at the same spot where JFK was assassinated, where she is then shot in the head.

The video was shot with a hidden camera so apparently people didn't know she was filming anything, and if anything they thought she was a random lady losing the plot.

The video was shot on the 13th March 2010 with no pre-warning to the public.

So I would definitely suggest everyone watching it a couple of times:


First time: To see the hype of Erykah's Booty! LOL!

Second time: Really take in the lyrics and the concept of the video!


I feel so shamed to say I only discovered this talented lady 6months ago!!

Shout out to Lastfm.com for blessing me with such a wonderful vocalist!!

Now usually when I hear the word 'Algebra' I wanna run a mile as I cannot stand maths!!! But little did I expect to associate it with an angelic sounding songstress!

Through her voice and the melody this neo-soul raw talent uncovers a heart-felt, vulnerable style that is overwhelmingly powerful and at times breath taking.

As soon as she sang the first couple of words of one of her songs "In this time", I was immediately captivated and wanted to hear more. The more I got into the track the more she began to sound very close to India Arie. (I even made my sister hear her, and her first reaction was "is this India Arie?")


Algebra has featured on a number of neo-soul tracks, alongside the sounds of Anthony Hamilton, Eric Roberson. Prior to releasing her album Purpose, Algebra contributed to other musical artist albums such as Musiq Soulchild and India Arie.


Purpose was released in late 2008. Algebra chose this title as she says:
“The defining moment of purpose is when you realise all that you have is worth less than nothing and still, life is worth living.”









Taken from Lowkey's forthcoming album Soundtrack To The Struggle...

"The American Dream only makes sense if your sleeping"


I'm not Anti-America, America is Anti-Me!



"I call Obama a bomber....
...Because those where YOUR bombs!!

Lil Wayne will serve a one year sentence for the possession of a loaded gun in 2007.

But due to "dental" reasons, Lil Wayne won't be starting his jail sentence until March of this year.

Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr spoke about not wanting to go jail by any means-
I'd rather be pushin' flowers, than to be in the pen sharin' showers.- A Milli


Clearly didn't do a good job in staying away from the Soap dropping Scene.

People have been twittering all throughout yesterday, starting trends such as #lettertoweezy and #freeweezy ..... Some are really talking positively to Lil Wayne, while others are mocking his situation.... Here are a few:

This is a new movie from the distributors of KiDULTHOOD.


Staring Bashy aka
Ashley Thomas, Adam Deacon ( from KiDULTHOOD and AdULTHOOD) and Kaya Scodelario (Skins) Shank brings to the screen what 2015 could look like if Street Gangs take over.


with the tag line:

If you're not one of us, you're a victim

, Director Mo Ali, and writer/producer Paul Van Carter

gives the audience the attitude and the approach that these raw teenagers lead.



The film looks like its gonna be just as brutal and jaw dropping as the gang related movies that Noel Clarke wrote ;KiDULTHOOD and AdULTHOOD (and directed).



Looking forward to: Seeing Bashy on the Big screen and another successful British movie directed at youth.


Hoping its not going to be another typical Street crime movie with an obvious plot!



In the meantime... Here's the Trailer:




This track speaks for itself.

The production is Powerful and his profound lyrics are really felt throughout the entire track. "Something Wonderful" is directed as well as dedicated to women from all backgrounds and struggles. This track is definitely ''Something Wonderful"
