If you didn't already know, Roc Nation signee K Koke was arrested and placed on remand for attempted murder earlier this year. The Stonebridge Estate rapper allegedly took part in a shooting in north west London, but the case fell apart over a lack of evidence, leaving Koke to walk free. And now he's back.

Grand Central take aim at foppish fashionistas decked out in ridiculous clothing. Sources tell UK All Day that it's still cool to sport a moustache and wear retro objects about the neck. This begs the question: what's worse, skinny jeans and garish colours or grown men in oversized Wu-Tang hoodies ? You decide.

Jack Flash and Wizard steamroll their way back into the scene. The pair's album, Progression , is waiting in the wings.

Context MC has taken some major strides since first popping up on our radar last summer. Getting attention from 1Xtra and MTV in recent months, he's since had his song Listening To Burial shortlisted by Radio 1. Now he's back with Drowning , which is in the same vein as his previous release, all ethereal and dreamy half-step.

We may have clocked Onoe Caponoe's oddball videos for Milkyway 1311 and Clockwork Green earlier in the year, but somehow the west London artist's LP Central Control slipped through the net a few weeks back. Onoe's on a planet of his own, putting his vocals to everything from trad boom bap, experimental beats and lo-fi dubstep. And all with an uncompromising, spaced-out hippy attitude. If you're in London, head to Suspect Packages Live (see below) this Friday to catch his performance.

Dirty Dike joins his High Focus labelmates in their Four Owls guise for Much Too Much , a certified neck-snapper with suitably belligerent raps. Their new album, Nature's Greatest Mystery , is in stores now.

Delegates of Culture graduate Inja brings a slice of schmaltzy dub-pop with this remix to tubby soulstress Adele's Someone Like You. You can get a copy here and watch out for dude's Bass Music Adventure / Escapism set in 2012.

Just when you thought K-Lash was back on hiatus, he makes his presence firmly felt with Clear My Throat , which lifts DJ Kool's Let Me Clear My Throat . Expect a mixtape tentatively titled Fuck The Long Talk to drop imminently.

Buggsy, the rapidfire rapper that hails from Bristol, releases this accompaniment to Connect The SPDIF . The Farma- and Jehst-featuring track was on Buggsy's The Great Escape indie set from April.

Just when you thought Tony D had been left hanging in the wind, Rodney P picks up where Rapper Tag left off and gives it some trademark, riddim killin bars a capella. Tony Rotten, where are ya?

Paragon Pictures hit UK All Day up with this footage from a recent Klashnekoff gig in Blackburn. Typically these recordings aren't worth a look-in because the audio's captured on the camera's mic, but here it's taken directly from the mixer so nice and clear.

The second leak off Tinie Tempah's upcoming project Happy Birthday , Lucky Cunt features GOOD Music's Big Sean, who recently wound up being an unlucky cunt when he imprisoned a female backstage and she went to the rozzers.

Sonnyjim stays keeping some skin in the game, this time hooking up with Canada's Elaquent for the mini EP Tall Poppy Syndrome. Elaquent has previously worked with the EatGood top brass and done a host of remixes, including the awesome reworking of misguided buffoon Lil B's Real Life . &a mp;amp;amp;amp;lt;a href=" http://sonnyjim.bandcamp.com/a lbum/tall-poppy-syndrome-ep"&a mp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp ;amp;amp;amp;gt;Tall Poppy Syndrome EP by SONNYJIM&a mp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;/a&a mp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp ;amp;amp;amp;gt;

J. Cole joins Brit Pack leaders Wretch 32 and Tinie Tempah for a track off the latter's upcoming mixtape, Happy Birthday . Like It Or Love It was handled by young Wolverhampton producer S-X, who also made Woo Riddim and is thought to be in cahoots with Cash Money's Birdman, which explains this .

Ricko Capito jumps on G-Depp's Head Over Wheels , a feature on backpacker favourite New York Reality Check 101 and released before he dropped a P from his name, signed to Bad Boy and got hooked on PCP... Oh, and then confessed to murder. Far more innocent times then. Ricko's Lock & Load: Volume 2 is coming soon.
