This video dropped a few days ago, and I really wasn't sure it was worth posting. It's the lead single off of Kele Okereke 's solo EP The Hunter , and it's really not too great. Kele's put his Bloc Party ventures on hold for the past few years now in favor of his electronically-based solo stuff. You guys know I really like dance music , but his stuff has been, with a few exceptions, very lackluster. I'm all for artists having fun and following their own influences, but recently rumors have been surfacing that he's going [...]

Agueeeentaa coraçãooo! Em dia de clássico mundial com narração do Galvão Bueno, a maior ameaça ao seu órgão vital está destinada aos fãs do Bloc Party . O grupo inglês que estava em hiato desde 2009 anunciou nesta manhã para a NME que vão voltar, mas sem o Kele . “Nem é nenhum segredo porque o Kele anda super ocupado com a carreira solo dele, e parece que vai estar por algum tempo. O resto de nós queria se encontrar e fazer música, e inicialmente pensamos até em fazer algo instrumental, mas agora precisamos [...]

Filed under: News , New Music Marco Prosch, Getty Images Let's hope Bloc Party is better at hiring singers than they are at firing them. In an interview with the NME , guitarist Russell Lissack has revealed that the British band "might get a singer" for the new music it's been working on. Absent from the recent sessions has been vocalist Kele Okereke , who wasn't told the group was recording. [...]

I'm going to call bull shit on this one and throw it into the corner to never be mentioned again. If I am wrong then I'll eat a hat or something to that effect. In an interview with NME , Bloc Party's guitarist Russell Lissack confirmed that the band were making music again and are indeed doing so without Kele and have even gone so far as to think about looking for a new singer. Russell said: [...]

About a week ago Bloc Party frontman Kele Okereke told NME that he feared he'd been fired from his own band after learning the rest of the group had gone into the studio without his knowledge. Well it looks like Okereke 's fears were justified as the group has just confirmed that they will be auditing new singers. Speaking to NME , guitarist Russell Lisssack revealed that the band were going into the studio without Okereke, "It's not really a secret because Kele's been [...]

If you are just waking up to the news that NME has announced that Bloc Party will no longer consist of Kele Okereke, and the band are looking for a new singer. This is absolute rubbish, Kele is known for telling lies in interviews, and from early on in the band all of the other members had a go at telling a big lie once in a while. This time Russell Lissack is at the helm of this publicity stunt! Earlier today, Fern Cotton of Radio 1 (BBC) [...]

Os lo contábamos la semana pasada. Kele Okereke , la siempre reconocible voz detrás de los geniales Bloc Party estaba preocupado por su posible salida del grupo, ya que tras un encuentro con varios de sus compañeros en Nueva York se dio cuenta que la banda estaba haciendo ensayos sin él. Las declaraciones eran muy inocentes, o eso parecía, y el vocalista se dedicaba básicamente a explicar su incertidumbre con un grupo de personas con las que ha tenido muy poco contacto en los últimos meses. ¿Cambio [...]

Update: Kele has responded on his blog with a cheeky post with 'YOU CANT FIRE ME BECAUSE I QUIT!' and a video of Nirvana's 'Scentless Apprentice'. While it's clear that Kele Okereke is soldering on with his solo career , the rest of Bloc Party are growing restless. Guitarist Russell Lissack told NME that the band may audition for a new singer: "It's not really a secret because Kele's been pretty busy doing solo stuff and it looks like he's going to be doing that [...]

Kele returns with a new EP entitled The Hunter due out on November 8th. 1st single “What DId I Do” still sounds absolutely nothing like Bloc Party, sadly. It’s more of a sexy, electro pop that Kele first introduced on The Boxer . I’m glad we there is plenty of screen time for the featured Lucy Taylor, who is just gorgeous. Kele Okereke - “What Did I Do (Feat. Lucy Taylor)

This week, the music world has been all abuzz with news that Bloc Party frontman Kele Okereke may have been booted from the beloved indie rock outfit . While he countered on his own blog with the cryptic "don't believe everything you read", it doesn't change the fact that, reunion or not , the singer's still got himself a new solo EP dropping in November . So, put away your copies of Silent Alarm and check out the first taste from Kele's The Hunter in the video [...]

Hace ya más de un año os contábamos como Kele Okereke hablaba sobre el futuro, bastante incierto, de Bloc Party , en unas declaraciones en las que achacaba esa incertidumbre a la falta de planes para el futuro, y al no querer hacer estos precisamente. El típico lo que tenga que pasar, pasará , aunque claro, tratándose de un grupo tan afamado como Bloc Party, la noticia corrió como la espuma y muchos tacharon las palabras como el principio del fin del grupo. Otros acogimos de buena gana la propuesta [...]

Filed under: News Louise Wilson, WireImage Bloc Party singer Kele Okereke admitted to NME that he believes his days in the band might be numbered. The front man's confession was prompted after he caught the rest of the group going into the recording studio without his knowledge. "I hope I haven't been fired," the singer told NME. "I don't really know what's going on, because we haven't really spoken recently [...]

It's unlikely that Kele Okereke will ever be able to shake off the shadow of Bloc Party that follows his every move. And why should he? Paul McCartney will always have The Beatles, Trent Reznor will always be Nine Inch Nails, and Julian Casablancas will forever lead The Strokes. Yet even in the footsteps of such mammoths, these artists have carved out some very successful niches all to themselves. And it's precisely in this spirit that indie-electro rocker, Kele, has announced the follow-up to his 2010 debut album, The Boxer . As NME  reports , [...]

Kele Okereke continua aproveitando seu tempo longe do Bloc Party para investir em sua carreira solo com uma vibe mais eletrônica.

Enquanto [...]

Kele Okereke has announced yet another solo release.

'The Hunter' is the follow-up to last year's 'The Boxer' and Kele is on a mission to make this EP one to remember for his fans, how? By working with lots of artists such as Sub Focus, Fred Falke, RAC and QNESS, but one surprise is that his backing vocalist on his live shows is going to feature on one of his tracks. Lucy Taylor will appear as lead vocalist on the track 'What Did I Do?' As well as his own original tracks there is a [...]

With Bloc Party rumored to return this year and recording songs Kele Okereke (Singer and Rhythm Guitar) is finishing some tracks on the 'filler' to his album and the new Bloc Party stuff. Bloc Party have had a tendency to put out a 'filler' track to bridge the albums and give the fans a new track to listen to after one album has been out and the 2nd one is a year away. This is a direct quote from XXXChange "I Finished up producing and mixing 3 songs for Kele Okereke’s new EP. did [...]
