woolies should be banned from touching all forms of music, they only sell really bland shit like westlife ballads, i remember when wu tang's 2nd album came out and went to number 1, they refused to stock because they considered it not suitable. so not only do they sell really bad music, they refuse to sell supposedly good stuff (turns out wu's 2nd album was shit in the end so it didn't matter that time)

Blink-182's Travis Barker sues after plane crash

The drummer is seeking damages from two companies

Sat 22 Nov, 2008

the only thing i cant believe is that he's only suing for $25000!!!!in america they file million dollar lawsuits for fun, over trivial things. this was a very serious incident in which he was lucky to escape alive. i dont know why he is bothering for such a trivial sum, surely he must have tons more in the bank.

in 1991 r kelly released she's got that vibe when he was 24 and aaliyah was 11 or 12. in it he says little cute aaliyahs got it (the vibe) and about 3 years laters there were strong rumours of them hooking up which were never confirmed or denied. all a little bit too dodgy if u ask me!!

Estelle removed from iTunes

London singer suffers chart fall after the move

Mon 01 Sep, 2008

Comments (1)

how did the industry allow a computer company to dominate the next stage of music sales??itunes have way too much power. this time it was warner who pulled the plug but itunes know that they can fuck up any artist, any track they like by removing it from their system. gives them way too much leverage.the majors can go fuck themselves but this won't be good news for independent labels. its time for smaller digital distributors to challenge itunes position, for everyones sake

standard jay z trick, get a popular producer to cover up his mediocre rapping. the amount of times he's put out a crap song with a sick beat and it's become popular is ridiculous, he used to hedge his bets with multiple producers in the past and now he's gonna try ride the kanye wave for a full length

Jay-Z: 'Glastonbury controversy is ridiculous'

Rapper says hip-hop 'should be respected like any other art form'

Fri 20 Jun, 2008

Comments (1)

its ridiculous to cuss glasto fans for not being open to new types of music - the artists and fans alike are as diverse as you can get. every genre is represented - in fact if you look closely enough there's a rapper playing in the park who was such an important part of the scene in the 80s and 90s, to some real hiphop fans he's a lot more influential (kool keith from the ultramagnetic MCs). the difference here is that jay z is universally considered to be shite, both musically and content-wise. the issue isn't even with hiphop - if an artist was decent, he'd get recognised regardless of genre, with glasto at the fore-front of picking up new emerging talent. look at dizzee rascal, emerged from the east london grime garage scene but embraced by indie kids just as much. jay z makes awful music and is the epitome of the fake gangsta westwood shizzle that everyone with sense hates. who is willing to sleep in a tent, walk around in wellies and crap in a steel chamber for the best part of a week only to be told by some noncey twat that he has ice and bling and spaced out rims. maybe in the fancy mayfair clubs, but that shit dont swing with festival fans. how can he consider himself to be on the same pedestal as radiohead etc? all he does is recycle lyrics over another man's looped, sampled beat.how can he refer to hiphop as new in his argument? its been going for 30 years and has been well established in the charts and mainstream for about 20-odd years.house/dance music is newer and has been embraced by glasto for some time. and anyone who has ever encountered a rap fan knows how closed-minded they are when it comes to music, rap heads are infamous for being unreceptive to every other type of music, for all the rap fans i know, only about 7% ever bother to listen to anything outside the 'urban' umbrellain his own head, he is the greatest artist ever to walk this earth, sadly no amount of booing and shouting on saturday will change his egotistic view.....but we'll have fun bottling his with warm piss!

the fans ARE the music industry. apart from us its just a bunch of corporations with no market.and it shows where their priorities are.....real bands will be happy just recording the music and putting it out there, they will always shift some legit copies and earn a bomb from the tour. a good album will still sell, but we all know you're not capable of recording a blinder

Jay-Z hits back at Noel Gallagher in Glasto row

'We have to respect each other' says the Glastonbury headliner

Tue 13 May, 2008

Comments (1)

rap music has already evolved from the raw underground sound and voice of the troubled to an absolute blinged up joke that aint even about the music anymorehow is souljah boi anywhere near the musical merits of rakim, tribe called quest, PE etc?jay Z is the anti-thesis of a classic glasto artist. no-one who craps in a plastic chamber and sleeps in a wet field for 4 nites cares about his iced out rimsthere IS room for hiphop at glasto - ie kool keith at the park. but he's a good artist who, on a level playing field, is as good as indie bands. but jay z, you are not. enjoy the warm bottles of 'tramps cider' dripping down you - you should have stuck to your chavved up gigs at milton keynes and hyde park

dear at last, we all know take that are shite without ever seeing them live, because we have an ounce of sense. a washed up boy-band playing crappy gigs to pregnant chavs is NOT the best that britain has to offer in terms of live music. in fact artists in this country have put out better dead music than take that's latest LP but what more do you expect from the brits, with sun readers, sorry, sun 'people who buy the paper to look at tits and read about jordan's latest holiday' people voting for best single
