Here's another new song from Basement Jaxx and Kelis . This new song is the title track from the former's upcoming studio album, Scars . The song also features the UK's Meleka and Chipmunk . The production on this song is INSANE; love it! It sounds like some sweeping epic opera sound with a contemporary twist. Meleka is featured as the main vocalist, Kelis sings the hook and Chipmunk lays down a verse. Unfortunately, the production is as good as it gets. Kelis' minor hook is drowned out by the production [...]

Nuova settimana per la chart dei singoli più venduti in Inghilterra. Le novità questa volta scarseggiano: le posizioni restano pressochè invariate. Intanto possiamo notare che il nuovo singolo dei Black Eyed Peas " I Gotta Feeling " fa un grosso balzo in avanti passando dalla posizione numero #39 alla #10. Riusciranno di nuovo a conquistare la numero uno? 10. I Gotta Feeling - Black Eyed Peas 9. Release Me - Agnes 8. Knock You Down - Keri Hilson/Kanye West/Ne-Yo 7. [...]
Welcome back, readers! I hope you enjoyed last week's Michael Jackson Tribute post to "Human Nature". With the shock of the gloved one's death still flooding news channels and papers regarding his tragic passing, star-studded funeral service, and talks of tribute concerts, it's increasingly difficult to focus on any other musicians right now. And I've really been enjoying radio stations playing copious amounts of his latest and greatest hits for my daily commute. In any case, I'd like to dedicate Under Cover to MJ for the next few weeks until things calm down, the toxicology [...]

I hit up Wireless Festival yesterday in Hyde Park, London. Was definitely a good look, lots of dope performances and great to see lots of UK artists getting the same shine as US ones. Here's a few clips and highlights.. The Streets, Dizzee Rascal and Basement Jaxx I wasn't there Saturday but it looks like Dizzee & Semtex ran things.. Par #1 I heard at least 3 artists and loads of people in the crowd call it O2 Wireless .. Barclaycard must be pissed lol [...]

I f-cks with this kid . Here's Semtex 's plug for his interview with him: "He came in the game at the age of 16. Over the last 2 years he's put in the relentless grind, he's got the streets, the airwaves, the Grade A's in School and College. Now at the age of 18 he's just signed a major label deal with Sony. As you can see from this interview, he has a very big future ahead of him. He's more articulate than most of your favourite MCs who have been in the game for [...]

London-based rapper & youngin' Chipmunk is prepping his debut album "I Am Chipmunk" to drop sometime soon, and the new single, Diamond Rings , is out and about; the lead single is a jazzy, snazzy number, Chipmunk's sounding great, playing with the UK grime scene sound, and we're really feeling it. Catch Chipmunk at his MySpace here . Also check out an absolutely killer remix to Chip's collaboration with fellow UK rapper Ironik on his single Tiny Dancer (sampling the massive Elton John jam). It's bangin! [...]
Finalmente qualcosa incomincia a muoversi nella Uk Chart anche se a piccoli passi. La numero uno è cambiata: era inevitabile che questa canzone entrasse così di prepotenza proponendosi al tempo stesso come new entry. Dopo il successo americano incomincia anche quello europeo: l'Italia è avvisata. Volete sapere di chi si tratta? Non è difficile capirlo... Non ci siete riusciti? Vi diamo un aiutino. Sono in quattro: un cinese, un'americana e due ragazzi di colore (si lo so, sembra l'inizio di una barzelletta). Avete la risposta ora? Se non ci siete riusciti andate dopo il salto. [...]
L'Inghilterra sembra non voler cambiare la propria classifica di gradimento dei singoli più venduti: infatti anche questa settimana le cose sono praticamente identiche a quella scorsa. Qualcosina cambia solo nella parte bassa della chart ma insomma...le canzoni sono sempre le stesse. Confidiamo nella venuta dell'estate per avere una ventata di freschezza; intanto per ora questi sono i fatti. 10. Halo - Beyonce 9. Jai Ho (You Are My Destiny) - AR Rahman Ft Pussycat Dolls 8. Not Fair - Lily Allen 7. We Made You [...]
Imperial Squad have gained zillions of MySpace and YouTube views thanks to their underground hits "Just A Link" and "Freak". They also have quite strange videos.
Nella classifica dei singoli più venduti in Inghilterra le cose in quest'ultima settimana non sono molto cambiate rispetto a quella precedente: qualcuno sale e qualcun'altro scende. Si può intravedere una sola nuova entrata che si piazza alla posizione numero 3. Ciò che colpisce maggiormente è vedere quanto gli inglesi apprezzino gli stili musicali più disparati: si va dalla dance, al pop, dall'r&b all'hip hop. Insomma: una bella differenza se la paragoniamo con quella italiana , chart nella quale la "POPular music" (formato reality) domina incontrastata. 10. Halo - Beyonce 9. [...]
