This is so damn crazy, the beat is so stupidly simple yet still it bumps nicely! This will hopefully be massive come the summer it hasn’t got the commercial appeal that Unorthodox has but fingers crossed it can still make some decent moves when it drops 14th August! Can’t wait for Wretch 32’s album (easily my favourite UK artist right now)!
Wretch 32 – Don’t Go (Feat. Josh Kumra)
June 9th, 2011Frank Ocean – Ready
June 3rd, 2011I downloaded “Lonny Breaux”, the leaked 64 demos from Frank Ocean and haven’t stopped listening to this track ever since…I’m not sure why I just love it!!

Photography
May 30th, 2011I love photography… granted I am not brilliant but it doesn’t take a genius to take a half decent photo in my opinion. Today I have been uploading some of my better photos I have taken over the past year or so. Here is a slideshow of my Lake District photos where I spend alot of time, for me it is the best place to go and switch off from the world. Also checkout my Flickr page for more photos!
Bluey Robinson – Showgirl
May 23rd, 2011Been supporting Bluey for well over a year now so it’s only fair that now his first video has dropped that I should share it!
Currently listening to….
May 23rd, 2011This dropped from Drake last week and I’ve not been able to put this down! Looking forward to the new album “Take Care” after hearing this!
Also this dropped today “Acura-Integurl” video, a track from Nostalgia/Ultra which didn’t make the cut for the mixtape but it does appear that it will be on the digital release which is due in July! I’ve still not put this mixtape down since downloading it, not had a mixtape on my Ipod for this long for a very long time!

Drake – Unthinkable
May 21st, 2011I love this verse…probably one of his best in my eyes! Bit of a random post but hey…
“Ugh, Tez keeps telling me he just turned 30
having dreams of being single forever he’s getting worried
and I’m scared too because I’m in the same boat
good women are rare too, none of them have come close
me I have’nt changed much, you know how I play
better safe than sorry
instead of searching for substance at every single party
baby being part of this life
I feel like I’m bound to end up with somebody
that’s been with everybody
I need you to rescue me from my destiny
I’m trying to live right and give you whatever’s left of me
cause you know life is what we make it and a
chance is like a picture, it’d be nice if you just take it.
Or let me take it for ya
I’m just down to ride
or we can roll around the city until we finally decide
I got more than a thing for you, tattoo and ink for you
right over my heart girl I do the unthinkable”
Elzhi’s – Elmatic
May 14th, 2011I honestly didn’t know much bout this guy but over the past few days alot of people of been talking about this mixtape over at Twitter, mainly Coxhead. So I made it my duty to download it and see what is was saying!
Defiantly no regrets downloading this, a really strong mixtape with some really strong material. Highlights so far are It Ain’t Hard To Tell, Life’s a Bitch and Memory Lane, pure hip hop vibes!
You can download it over at XXL magazine!
Mayer Hawthorne – Impressions
May 13th, 2011I love what Mayer Hawthorne does, so when I saw he had dropped a free EP while reading Pinboard Blog I had to download it and see what is was sounding like. It is basically a six track EP of cover’s but not obvious covers mainly of old tracks (descriptions of can be viewed via the link above). It doesn’t disappoint much like “A Strange Arrangement” which if you haven’t already got that in your life, you need to rectify this situation!
Anyway you can download the latest EP (Impressions) by clicking the cover below – enjoy!
How cool is this..
May 4th, 2011Tape recording uploaded to YouTube from Manchester Pirate Radio from 1994! Nothing like recording to tape then rewinding it so many times it get chewed up in the tape player! This is parts 1 &2 of 6 purely because it was the first I came across. You can find the rest under the related videos…it’s too sick such a flashback!
