Fdot1 – Pardon Me
Fdot1 – Pardon Me
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aa2zYK1qY-4&hd=1 or
http://www.muzu.tv/fdot1/fdot1-pardon-me-music-video/1521502
Returning from his ground breaking trip to New York, where he filmed part of the video for his
forthcoming collaboration track with Hip Hop legend Man Parrish, Fdot1 has gone back into
the studio and back to basics with this one.
After being co-signed by childhood heros Kool Herc, Grandmaster Caz and Crazy Legs (Rock Steady Crew) in New York Fdot1 has taken Hip Hop full circle and back to its real roots. “Pardon Me..” is the result of months of total immersion in 80s and 90s hip hop classics at Lil’ Rock Studios, and comes with a newly revived passion to bring back the art of lyricism, complex rhyme patterns and just downright dutty beats.
“I just got tired of all the bullshit that’s being pushed out and labelled Hip Hop, whether it be here in the UK or Stateside. Hip Hop ain’t Nicki Minaj or Drake, that’s Hip POP. I’m all about taking it back and honouring the greats that inspired me in MY art. Being in New York, the birthplace of Hip Hop, and meeting real legends like Caz, Herc, Rakim, Legs and Premo made me sit up and say naaah Flo you gotta do something to educate the people about what REAL hip hop is all about.. and bring it with some new flava. Hip Hop is not dead, it’s just been in a coma for a New York minute, but I’m here to wake y’all the fuck up!” Fdot1
And what about the video. well, in true Fdot1 style, it’s not your regular no-budget hood video.. oh no. No council estate, no crew, no hired Maybachs or Bentleys, it’s strictly Man vs Food. Like he says “Hip Hop lives in everything I do”.
“The Hip Hop revival starts right here and now. Are you with me?” Fdot1
Catch Fdot1 performing “Pardon Me” live on 14th September in London with UK Hip Hop legend Naba Napalm… and don’t forget to keep your eyes and ears open for that Man Parrish collaboration joint coming soon to big screen near you.

Wiley | Heatwave feat. Ms.D (Official Video)
Wiley Releases new single ‘Heatwave’ on July 30th on Warner Bros. Records
WATCH THE OFFICIAL VIDEO HERE:
“He’s predictably unpredictable, an innovator who doesn’t take himself too seriously… you’d be a fool to ignore him.” – NME
Wiley, the godfather of grime, returns with the new single ‘Heatwave’ which will be released on July 30th on Warner Bros. Records.
Featuring a huge pop hook courtesy of guest vocalist Ms D (who also featured on Chipmunk’s #1 hit ‘Oopsy Daisy’), the immediately addictive ‘Heatwave’ is full of scorching seasonal references and looks set to soundtrack the rest of the summer. The track was produced by Rymez (Wretch 32, Tinie Tempah).
Already playlisted at Kiss, 1Xtra and Choice, ‘Heatwave’ again demonstrates Wiley’s ability to create crossover hits that maintain his longstanding underground credibility, as he has previously demonstrated with the singles ‘Wearing My Rolex’ (#2), ‘Never Be Your Woman’ (#8), ‘Cash In My Pocket’ (#19) and ‘Take That’ (#20).
Wiley has a rich history in collaborating with breaking new talent, having seen the likes of Emeli Sandé, Ed Sheeran, Tinie Tempah, Daniel Merriweather and Tinchy Stryder feature on his tracks. He has also featured as a guest artist on recordings from Dizzee Rascal, Ed Sheeran, Jodie Connor and Chipmunk.
Founder member and leader of the Roll Deep collective who had two #1 singles with ‘Good Times’ and ‘Green Light’, Wiley has also proved to be one of the most prolific artists around. To date, he has released nine studio albums including ‘Evolve or Be Extinct’ which was released in January. Covering topics from ordering a taxi to being stopped by immigration, it also delves into his psyche on tracks such as ‘Weirdo’ (“I’m a weirdo but I’m not a bi-polar”), ‘Miss You’ and ‘Scar’ (in reference to the cut on his face). The album earned glowing reviews across the board from publications as diverse as NME, The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Independent, The Sun, Metro, Q, Mojo, Clash and Artrocker.
Wiley remains one of the biggest characters and wildest talents in British music. Whether helping younger artists break through, offloading hundreds of unreleased tracks on Twitter, or doling out private insights on the web, he is always in the studio.

J-Lie & Jim Jones “Get It on the Low” Video
Rapper J-Lie calls on Dip Set capo Jim Jones for an assist on “Get It on the Low”, a single from his forthcoming mixtape, Ears First, Hearts Next, due later this month. “I am here to get the attention of your ears first and then your heart next,” J-Lie says of the project. “‘Get It on the Low’ is the start of that mission. Everything I have been through prior to get to this point almost doesn’t count. Welcome to my world.” Raised in both L.A. and Atlanta, the South African-South Korean entertainer showcases both his rhyming and crooning talents in the visuals, which take place in various locations from rooftops to clubs. “The city tatted on my chest/ No Vinny but my entourage on Turtle’s neck/ Chokehold, on top, never sittin’ middle/ Two hands on that… no double dribble,” he raps. The former athlete is prepping for an upcoming Brazilian tour and dates in Japan this summer.
Obie Trice Jacks M.O.P, Sadat X, & Caktuz For New Bilal Song?
Recently, Eminem protege`, Obie Trice, bounced back from the wilderness to prepare fans for his upcoming mixtape,The Hangover. On the gritty cut, “Get Rich, Die Trying (GRDT)” featuring soul singer Bilal, Obie vows to do anything necessary to make it on the cold streets of the ‘D’. Although a nice intro into whats to come from Obie’s mixtape, We have to sound the alarm on this one!
This song was previously released 3 years ago featuring M.O.P., Sadat X, and indie rapper Caktuz. The track in question was originally recorded by Bilal and produced by Hi-Tek for 50 Cent’s Get Rich Or Dying soundtrack. So, the story goes like this…
Submitted as a demo from Bilal & Hi-Tek for placement on the Get Rich Or Dying soundtrack, 50 decided to use only G-Unt artists to fill the projects line-up. Caktuz, a radio host for defunct lifestyle brand WheatBread, approached Bilal about a track for the Bread Breaks Vol. 2 Mixtape. Caktuz recruited Sadat X to join him on the original version entitled; “So Cold”
After the mixtape dropped, Bilal & Caktuz were alarmed to hear an M.O.P. version that leaked to radio called “Get Rich”. One time signees to G-Unit Records, M.O.P., were slated to use the track for their album before the Brownsville legends were dropped from the label. Sources close to the Caktuz camp say tensions between the parties involved began to flare up to a breaking point until Caktuz reached out to friend, Billy Danze of M.O.P., to enquire into the confusion.
To squash any potential beef, Caktuz, M.O.P., & Bilal agreed to smash both versions together in one mix and release it as a digital download to fans. last year Caktuz re-released “Get Rich” as a part of his #OverTheWallWeds. free download campaign. Did Obie Trice striaght jack Caktuz for this track?

Song of the Day – i-D
VIDEO: http://youtu.be/SrXLu74DHtA
Soundcloud: http://soundcloud.com/yadiyadiyadi/yadi-guillotine-scubas
2012 better be ready. YADi isn’t like other pop musicians. Poised, petite and powerful, she exploded onto the blogsphere last year with ‘Sahara Heart’, a love song set upon the knife-edge of defiance and defeat. It garnered support across the board and quickly became i-D’s ‘Track of the Day’. It’s included on her debut EP ‘Guillotine’ which is released on 14th May.
At just 24, she is a beautiful bundle of contradictions, the product of a genetic cocktail that mixes Algerian on her father’s side with Norwegian and Italian on her mother’s. For YADi – born in South London – her music is an aural kaleidoscope of influences, one that mixes the music of her heritage with the pop of the future, creating a forward-thinking sound that sets her apart from the crowd.
In the live arena, YADi stalks the stage with a slinky prowess – a feline with the roar of a tiger and a revolutionary zeal. Joining her on stage are Chris Hutchings and Max Taylor, both of whom she met on the thriving London music scene and who cut their teeth in Tom Vek’s band. Her performances, which resonate with a volcanic pulse, a cathartic outpouring of emotion and passion as if her very existence was dependent upon it, have won her many champions including Marina and the Diamonds and CSS, both of whom YADi has supported. Behind her flies the YADi flag, its four colours representing each country that encompasses part of her background.

Star of BBC TV show Hustle – Adrian Lester – Wearing A Dark N’ Cold T-Shirt.
By Lawrence Conway
COMEDIAN Lenny Henry and star of BBC TV show Hustle Adrian Lester visited a school to help get pupils interested in Shakespeare.
The famous pair were at The Norwood School in Crown Dale, Norwood, on Friday to lead a special class about the Bard’s life and works.
Jessie Nicholas, assistant head at the school, said: “The visit was brilliant. The pupils were really inspired and had great fun.
“They knew Lenny Henry, inset, more from his hotel adverts and also knew Adrian from TV.
“But they weren’t fazed at all.
“During the session they did a lot of voice work, talked about the language, spoke about stage presence and understanding the text.
“The students already knew quite a lot about Shakespeare which I think really impressed and delighted Lenny and Adrian.”
About 20 Year 8 and 9 pupils took part in the workshop which will be included an ITV show, to be aired later in the year, documenting how Lenny grew to love Shakespeare.
The funny man is performing in Shakespeare’s The Comedy of Errors until April at The National Theatre on the South Bank.
The school has a specialism in visual and performing arts and one of its governors, Mark Londesborough, works at The National Theatre which is how the connection with the actors was made.

**NEW VIDEO** MysDiggi & DJ DSK ‘I Know You Got Sole (Heaven)’ &; MIXTAPE ‘Fresh Kicks Required’
This is an evolution of Kicks N Mixtapes whereby we have introduced live vocals
We’re pairing up sneakerhead DJ’s with sneakerhead MC to add live vocal elements to the mix
The first mixtape is DJ DSK & Mystro, and it was that collab that created the bonus remix of ‘I Know You Got Sole (Heaven)
Together they have re-created the classic hip hop anthem by Eric B & Rakim from back in ’87
They have fully reworked it musically & lyrically to pay homage to the OG
The lyrics have been flipped to sound like the original, whilst talking about sneakers & streetwear. It’s amazing, it will blow your readerships minds!
As the track was so strong, we commission a video and the storyline is “Girl seduces men, so she can steal their sneakers”
The girl in the video is played by Ellis Cooper.

Reveal – Warning Video
Reveal, the original Poisonous Poet, is now officially back! Hot on the trail of his two recent viral videos ‘Neva Blink’ and ‘West London’, the self described “Gully Irani” releases “Warning” the first full music video from his forthcoming “Seven Shades” Solo EP; set to be released on the 7th of February. Reveal takes a break from the norm as he takes a very introspective look at himself and the events that have formed him.
Complete with unique, stunning, spaced out and trippy visuals, “Warning” is a very personal song, dedicated to Reveal’s Father, who was killed in 2003 by a landmine while working as a cameraman in Kurdistan. Reveal reflects on certain lifestyle choices he has made in the aftermath of the tragic circumstances he was faced with and their lasting effects.
The track is produced by Cannes Film Festival Special Jury Nominee, Paris based Iranian composer Mahdyar Aghajani and is definitely not your average run of the mill Hip-Hop.
Make sure you keep an eye out for the 7 track EP “Seven Shades” dropping on the 7th of February…
