    Homophobia in dancehall/reggae culture.

    In speaking to my sister about this, I remembered there was also some call and response involving 'Burning Babylon'. Just made me chuckle. Perhaps my interpretation of Babylon is inaccurate, but essentially much of the crowd were chanting to the downfall off their own society! Mugs...

    Homophobia in dancehall/reggae culture.

    Yeah, I know what you mean, as I too have been a hiphop fan for 15 years, but when it is live, and face to face, it somehow seems a lot more real, offensive, and dangerous. And my instinct to fight against it is much stronger. Standing there last night without saying anything would have felt...

    Homophobia in dancehall/reggae culture.

    I was in East London this evening, for a friend's birthday. He decided to go to an event which combined various world music groups, touching on klezmer and reggae/dancehall. Now, I'm not generally into this venue, because there tends to be quite a wank/hippy crowd, which i find irritating...

    Road Rap

    I've not read this entire thread, but I work on Charlie Sloth's Hiphop Mixshow, and since I've been working on the show, the sickest performer we've had on Fire In The Booth has to be Mic Righteous. I know he's more conscious than what people might call Road Rap, but he goes in haaaaard...

    Music Documentaries

    it's going out on Radio 1, July 12 at 9 i think. I work for a production company, that got it commissioned, and then I got asked to make it. In the past all my ideas for docs have been too specialist/london-centric apparently! But, I reckon I'll try pitching some more stuff, as it was a good...

    Music Documentaries

    I remember a Bukem documentary from probably 1995/6??? I remember finding that whole world of clubbing so thrilling as a 13 year old, and I was mystified by the idea of someone hearing some music, and then not being able to stop dancing, even after they left the club...(as seen in the doc...)...

    iphone apps

    Guardian app is definitely my most used app. It's sick. If you're looking for a flat, find a property has a GPS search, which is pretty useful. So if you're in an area you quite like you can see what's on the market in that surrounding area. Although I have found the location thing fails if...
