Not too long ago things like mobile phones, burberry clothes and jewellery used to be the preserve of the upper classes – so it can’t be these things themselves that the chav-baiters find tasteless, it’s the cheek at being poor (and flaunting it)

spotted this from Johann Hari in The Independent earlier this week on a vile new Edinburgh Fringe play, which seems a good companion piece to some of k-punk's (and friends) excellent recent posting on class ....but this looks like Sondheim compared to the most obnoxious show on the fringe...

Yes, it's by far the best because it's basically unskewed documentary footage of a deja vu show, has everyone big from the scene - dizzee, wiley, titch, sharkey, d double, tinchy, lady fury, gods gift, has karange (out of view) djing a brilliant set and even has a wee bit of handbags at the end...

Ahem To be fair you can do both - Tinchy's night finishes at 1am

I think they're on different wavelengths here tbh - logan's comment was more about the fact that the Police's stipulation that goodz shouldn't perform live in London is more to do with his own protection (reprisals from the gang of the murder victim) than a general policy against grime (though...

Been listening non-stop to this over the last month or so...I think the tortured/bring back the scene track is the one, his mcing on this combines his usual dexterity with a gruffness reminiscent of crazy titch (he also opens with his bars) which suits the coki's production perfectly - my only...

Back from 'hols' now (actually it was work but that's btb). It's probably going to be of little surprise that I'm going to distance Dirty Canvas from Badness' hate lyrics at our event a week last Friday. We had no idea that these particular bars were in his repertoire when booking him and...

Launch party's a Dirty Canvas thing on Fri 17th Aug, 93 Ft East...Tinchy, Wiley, Ruff Sqwad...

Jammer and Dirty Canvas on tv promo (current tv) belated video flyer for Friday night out soon

what if grime mcs start jumping on dirrt pop/bassline house riddims? I can see those hybrids happening and lets face it grime riddims generally could do with some fresh air

Yes - their was a FACT magazine piece about this, though his choices there were more proto-grime than 2 step

bump

okay then - what about the flip side. You are putting on a night or house party, a guy has either asked to DJ, or you have asked them to ....and what they are playing is destroying the vibe, people are complaining to you - what do you do?

I'm agreeing with woebot's and the others sentiments here. On Sunday (okay admittedly it was just ahouse-warming) I had two djs remove me from the selector position only to jack my turntable and replace with their mobile phone. I mean c'mon

I completely agree with the mood/outlook-changing impact of music (though much as I love it, I'm not sure grime can claim extra powers). A selection of tunes, the amp turned up, headphones (to protect the neighbours) is better than any new age flotation tank, expensive therapist or drug. Though...

Durrty Goodz on Ras Kwame last night...delicately avoiding all details about 'where he's been for the last 2 years'
