The Future 50 - The Innovators

WTF NME, The future 50 innovators? And you have included La Roux, Lady GaGa and Jack White. Come on NME you have got to be kidding.

As a music lover and a lover of all music to name Lady GaGa as an innovator of music has insulted me. What has she done for the music industry apart saturate it with garbage and carry around a tea cup. La Roux sounds like a whining cat over Electro beats and Jack White looks like dead weather.

The list is a complete farce, where are musicians like The Maccabees, Mpho, Theophilus London. Real artists and true innovators of sound. NME you're pathetic.

Maybe I am being harsh after all it is an opinion right? There are some folk on the list who deserve to be there like Dizzee Rascal who shows no signs of slowing down and Micachu a great emerging talent with a unique sound. Just the two then!!! ha ha

For the complete list click here. Am I being harsh opinions please.

You need this in your life!!!!

Shoreditch is Shit vs Plain Janes

SO, I went there on Saturday night as my friends band (Ezra Bang and The Hot Machine were playing, she is the bassist for them). I also went to see Theophilus London (who is a certified Legend). Anyway, I stroll up to 333 with camera intact, no queuing because I' am on the guest list, but before I enter I' am searched and the promoter says to me 'all smiles and no trouble' something which immediately makes me think what kind of night I' am in for and what a twat the promoter is for saying that to me. I respond with a little smirk bordering on a smile and a wink before entering.


Once inside, I wasn't to overly impressed with the crowd, your typical Shoreditch type crowd, you know the ones 'we're cool you're not'. But once I saw past the facade I really started to enjoy myself apart from when I was accused of being a 'fake cockney' by a guy who's Jamaican accent was as good as if Gordon Ramsey attempted one.


Ezra Bang and The Hot Machine

Ezra Bang and The Hot Machine were amazing full of energy and a great performance, if you haven't seen these guys perform live then definitely go and see them. Check out their Myspace too.


Theophilus London

I was checking out the other rooms and decided to avoid the foam party when I came across Theophilus London relaxing before his performance, I approached him (btw, he is very approachable and a nice guy) I took a couple pic's of him and we had a little chat before he went on stage.





Theophilus London's performance was EPIC, his on stage skanks were hilarious something which got the crowd going. He brought a lucky young lady on stage during his rendition of Whitney Houston's 'I will always love you', there was a stage invasion when he did other renditions of K.I.G's 'Head, shoulders, knees and toes' and also Crazy Cousins 'Bongo Jam'. To be honest I' am not a big fan of the song 'head, shoulders, knees and toes' but admittedly I was bopping away. Theo's set was flawless and track after track he got the crowed more hyped. He finished his set with Grey X sage (the sabali remix) and it was a perfect end to the night, well for me it was.

You truly missed out if you wasn't there on Saturday, just to reiterate my point it was EPIC. Don't forget to check out Theophilus London's Myspace.
