Levi Roots hasn’t quite reached the level of stardom of fellow Jamaicans Bob Marley and John Barnes.

For any non UK folk reading this, Mr Levi Roots is a man who was introduced to us by the wonders of reality business show Dragons Den. Instead of being all boring like everyone else, he pitched his Reggae Reggae sauce product with a song. Whilst sporting dreadlocks!

After spunking £50,000 worth of investment into the sauce product, rich person and rubbish TV advert star Peter Jones has taken Levi Roots everywhere. So much so that it’s starting to get a tad annoying. The bloke is…

“OMG what did you get? I only got 17 A* grades.” Across, the country, that is what various school children will utter as they rip open their GCSE envelope.

Will they count for anything? Not really, in two year’s time they’ll be told that their A-Level exams are so simple that a dyslexic goat with severe mental issues could pass them.

Instead of collecting ASBOs and the disapproval of pensioners, Flamboyant Bella make a joyous sound, mixing together catchy pop and soft electro that is as addictive as those footballs stickers you got as a kid. The band are only young and still…

Ever since Michael Jackson’s children were born, doubt has been cast on who the real daddy is.

Some say that the tykes look nothing like their father; other men claim to be the sperm donor. A couple of bright sparks in the community also twigged that his children are white instead of black.

Since Jackson’s death, the protective shield masks that were shoved over his kids’ heads have been removed. We can now go nuts over what they look like and go aww when they cry at funerals beamed live to the world. Now newspaper reports claim that Michael Jackson created…

We seem to have neglected the wonderful world of glitch recently. To a lot of people, it sounds like a needle has been dragged across a record and the results recorded. We like the sound of something that sounds a bit raw, uncommercial and generally exciting. Fuck your cleanly polished studio sounding production where the vocal goes through seventy two filters to make it sound as clean as a whistle.

Going through various stages, there is everything here from Nedry. Sassy sounding vocals go alongside the sweeping sounding electronics that slowly build momentum before crashing in to one final rhythm.

…

Remember the other week when we brought you the wonderful music of The Candle Thieves via our MySpace Trawl feature? Of course you ruddy do!

It appears the band have been able to use all sorts of pretty colours and sellotape them together to create a video for The Sunshine Song. Don’t go thinking its a botched job down on a hand held camera for £20.

Oh no, what we have is a wonderfully crafted video which perfectly reflects the sound of the song. Thank God for that, the last thing we wanted to see was the duo standing on a building…

Just like Christmas, Easter, St George’s Day and the mourning of our office hamster, X Factor has made its mark and become a regular calendar fixture.

Entering series number six, the programme will once again whittle down a select few hopefuls from hundreds of thousands and give them the belief they’ll win an elusive record deal.

And for the rejects? Well for a good five weeks ITV can boost its audience share by editing together programmes that contain utterly shoddy performers. Will there be tears? Burly council estate dads threatening the judges when their tubby daughter is rejected? Quite likely yes, but will…

“It’s the bi-polar medication, honestly!” If you could actually pick out those words from the slurred speech of Kerry Katona, that’s what she’d be saying.

We may mock her but she has an award none of us have. The most sought after Mother Of The Year title has been given to Kerry not once but twice. But how do you win this award to glisten up your CV? It seems that you need to a) be female, b) sell frozen seafood like your life depends on it, c) get MTV to document your non-exciting life and d) take barrel loads of cocaine!

Footage has surfaced…

Ever get the feeling you’re missing out or are simply excluded from the awesome stuff that’s going on?

While all your mates are hanging out together after school, all you do is pick your nose, ear and arse and work out what flavours taste the best.

Mates Of State have some pretty awesome friends who we love. Santigold and Death Cab For Cutie are both artists that plenty of people know and appreciate. But why not this duo?
