The American music scene is full of fresh acts to be excited about, but we're usually a little late when it comes to the European talent. We always hear about these new artists out of England, France, Sweden, or Iceland, and by the time we're catching on in the States, we're months beyond the rest of the world. Maybe it's because we're egocentric Americans, interested only in hearing our own voices. Luckily, we've got a secret weapon. P&P contributor Constant Gardner is from London and currently living in Paris. He's European, so by nature he's inferior to Americans, but he happens [...]
I love it when America discovers someone talented that the rest of the world has known about for months, even years! Today, the talent I'm referring to is Scottish singer/songwriter Emeli Sandé . Sandé is due to release her debut album, Our Version of Events on June 5th via Capitol Records . This is HUGE ! I'm envisioning lots of promotion, performances on The Tonight Show , The Ellen DeGeneres Show (except I think [...]
...Workout with some invisible equipments in "Boom Blast" by Wiley . "Boom Blast" is off of Evolve Or Be Extinct , out now through Big Dada Recordings .
Wiley is, without a doubt, one of the most important pioneers of UK garage and grime, and his new release, Evolve Or Be Extinct , somehow both demonstrates and transcends both genres – and many more. Over the course of 14 tracks, the producer and rapper cruises through house ("Boom Blast"), dubstep ("Evolve or Be Extinct"), classic grime ("Miss You," "Scar") and a handful of entertaining-yet-perhaps-a-bit -lengthy skits ("Can I Have A Taxi Please," "Customs"), mainly self-produced and each featuring the bouncy, slang-laden delivery characteristic of the British EDM scene he's helped to shape. The UK's electronic music scene [...]
Due 19 January 2012 (Wiley's birthday), his gift to you is this 14-track stream. Please let us know what you think in the comments below. Read more »
Wiley - Evolve Or Be Extinct By Greg Salter Halfway through Evolve Or Be Extinct 's title track, we get Wiley , sounding as relaxed and as confident as ever, pretty much setting out his what's driving his new material: "You say you don't like me. So what?/I'm not a show off but when I'm about it's a roadblock/Stop thinking of old songs/Move on – go change your old top". Evolve Or Be Extinct is his statement for his longevity – arguably one of grime's most [...]
With only 10 days left before Wiley's eight studio album drops on Big Dada, Wiley leaks track #16 off "Evolve Or Be Extinct", 'Fire' via his twitter account. It's way better than both 'Cheer Up, It's Christmas' and 'Boom Blast' but not on level as the album title track. However, enjoy below and pre-order "Evolve [...]
Earlier today Fact Mag unleashed their review of Wiley's forthcoming album "Evolve or be Extinct" (read here) and he only managed to scrape 2 and a half records together out of five. And well yes, 19 tracks deep, "Evolve Or Be Extinct" is destined to be a bit uneven, like it usually is when dear [...]
So since the Christmas song (download here) and now it seems Wiley is fully back in the music game and fully involved, including actually featuring in his music videos and everything! Boom Blast is the new track out this week ahead of the release of his new album, 'Evolve or Be Extinct' due out on the 19th of January on Big Dada Records and the video is intended to get us all back in the gym after the holiday food binge. Alex D provides the remix and we've got it below as [...]
Grime master Wiley's Evolve Or Be Extinct is out on January 19, which coincidentally is the prolific British MC's birthday. After giving his fans not one but two free tracks, Wiley goes for the trifecta by offering up another gratis download. Alex D's remix of "Boom Blast" — whose original Most Wanted Mega produced version [...]
L'un des acteurs influents du grime revient avec un nouveau clip encore une fois très bien réalisé. Souvenez vous, je l'ai même intégrer aux meilleures vidéos de l'années, « Numbers in action » était une franche réussite, tiré de son album « 100% Publishing » le titre n'a même pas le temps de devenir vieux que son successeur tombe le 19 janvier prochain chez Big Dada , logique. En attendant la chronique de « Evolve Or Be Exctinct « , voici le clip de « Boom Blast » qui donne [...]
![[Listen] Wiley - "Fire"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3979001_lg.jpg)
British artist Wiley has been teasing fans on Twitter regarding new material for a while but recently stopped teasing and offered up a cut he's been working on titled "Fire". His new album Evolve Or Be Extinct , is set for release next week on the 19 th of January. Have a little preview of what you're in for if you get the album below. via Hypetrak .
With a ton of awesome releases in hip-hop last year, there are certainly a few artists who had their music overlooked. UK's Wiley was one of those artists, who released a stellar full-length in 100% Publishing via Big Dada as well as a free album, Chill Out Zone . Despite receiving little of the attention that he deserves, he decides it is time to release some more music. In only a week's time, Wiley will be dropping another project, Evolve Or Be Extinct , and "Fire" is our first taste of [...]

Die müsst ihr gesehen und gehört haben. Endlich, wahrscheinlich haben die Drahtzieher bei Lana del Rey keine alten Retro-VHS-Kassetten mehr gefunden und mussten mal ein richtiges Video in Auftrag geben. Zufall oder nicht, dass sie dabei an einen der wohl begabtesten Videoclip-Produzenten geraten sind: den Franzosen Woodkid, der schon für Moby, Yelle und Katy Perry drehen durfte und auch selber Musik macht . Lana del Rey - Born To Die Flight Facilities - Foreign Language [...]
I wouldn't have picked grime godfather Wiley to be the first man to be out on his roof erecting an illuminated Santa or hanging some tinsel from a tree in his lounge as soon as December hits. But as it turns out, our man Eski-Boy is a bit of a fan of yuletide festivities. He's even gone so far as to record his own carol. Okay, so it's not really a carol in the traditional sense. Rather, Wiley has cooked up 'Cheer Up, It's Christmas', a shuffling ode to let the moaners to be [...]
"At Christmas be around family or else you're at home straight angry." So says UK grime godfather Wiley on "Cheer Up, It's Christmas." Always one to inject a bit of humor into his tracks ["It's Christmas time/Even though I wanna leave, I gotta spend time."], Wiley knows that the holidays can be a stressful and [...]
