Dadawah

One of the things i miss most from London would be my regular trip to Honest Jon’s in Ladbroke Grove where I’d come away with far too many awesome records for my skinny arms to easily carry so it’s very welcome to see from the other side of the world the shop and its labels …

Oh it’s like that is it Boima ? Fair enough, the US aren’t looking like jokers this year. Gotta admit Clint Dempsey has been a fucking legend at Fulham the last 4 years (rap career aside) and it’s gonna be weird seeing him against England. But at the end of the day..Shhhh Conroy Smith – …

Panama Get Me Better

I’m at home recovering from an operation which involves lying around a lot and generally feeling quite rough. I can’t think of a better way to get through it than some medicinal Panamanian 90s reggae.

Made In Jamaica

I went to see Made In Jamaica, a new film about reggae and dancehall starring tonnes of artists old and new. Going against the grain of the traditional music documentary narrative, it was pretty cool just rambling along like an Altman film, giving the artists a chance to express themselves.
