....PLANET ESS DOT....



ooookaaaaay, whats going on everyone?! Have been meaning to jump on the blog band wagon for a loong time now but like most things in life it got thrown to the side with the less important things to do (a long with the other weird-but-still-need-to-do-before-i-die kind of things) But yeah. So here we are. Im not quite sure yet how often I'll be updating this bad bizatch but Im sure whenever the mood takes me to moan about suttin or to try and be a bit controversial Ill be on here quicker than a fat kid on cake, comprende?

Despite being called Planet Ess Dot its not actually always gunna be about me (yes, i promise!) but more so about my opinions on current things in the fickle, cruel but oh so wonderful world of MUSIC. I don't wanna bore anyone with a biography so will try and squeeze who i be into a sentence or 2...or 3 :/I'm a DJ (tune selection is what Im good at, and ive been raised to believe if your good at suttin - never do it for free!) , a Radio Production student (tryna get my degree on ya diggg?), and a host/presenter (what can I say, anyone that knows me knows I have a big mouth and talking music is what it likes to do the best I cant help it?!). If you wanna know more click hurrrrr - http://www.myspace.com/dj_s_dot

So yeah, my passion is Music Radio and Record Label work and am starting to dabble in event promotion and TV presenting so watch.... this.... space...... Anythin you read here, I would love for you add a comment as the whole point of this blog is to trigger discussion and debate!

PEACE! <3

TINCHY STRYDER + TAIO CRUZ = HIT SINGLE





The debate of whether or not Grime has a future is generating many heated discussions with sceptics doubting its longevity. It has almost become the "thing to do" for many of the leading artists to hook up with more commercial successes - and more times than not - this move has proven to be a good one in the process of sustaining mainstream interest for a genre that is considered so niche... Kano’s been doing the hip hop thing for a while now, Dizzie's been flowing recently with House & Hip Hop vets Armand Van Helden & Grandmaster Flash whilst also having collabed with Lily Allen and Arctic Monkey’s (to me these collabs felt more as though Dizzee was doing THEM a favour rather than the other way round) and "GoG" Wiley, is retiring (or is he?)- fresh, young and swaggered talents are needed to keep the movement strong (cue Tinchy Stryder's new one....)

The track is banging and so is the video, maybe lacking in a storyline but who the hell cares when you've got Taio doing what he dus best (lookin criss whilst beltin out his smooth, heart felt hooks), a quality produced video to match the tune's high standard and with hot girlz holding leashes with great danes big enough to be mistaken for donkies on the end of them - everyones a winner no?
Check the remix aswell featuring Chipmunik & Sway

  1. To tell the truth i had never heard this track until you put it up! its a stiff tune, Tinchy is holding it down, the new generation is breaking new boundaries that no one thought UK grime artists could break! All we need now is more UK singers to start breaking through and setting a high standard! show the world that we can put down in all musical genres :D
