Mark Ronson is a confident (some would say cocky) young man who doesn’t suffer fools gladly. He’s a super-producer who has not only been one of the main reasons for Amy Winehouse‘ worldwide success but has also released his own album full of cleverly re imagined covers.
So the man knows his stuff, which is why […]
Another day, another incident involving Amy Winehouse beating up a fan. The British newspapers are reporting that Winehouse was involved in several incidents during a night out in North London, including hitting a fan, and brawling with paparazzi photographers.
Winehouse appeared at a charity fund-raiser at Dingwalls in Camden where several celebrities and members of the […]
I love and hate John Lydon aka Johnny Rotten in equal measures. Yes, he’s over the hill and should have stopped ranting on stage as lead singer of the Sex Pistols a long time ago. And yes, he only says things to cause controversy and buy himself and his band some cheap publicity. But he […]
Glastonbury 2008 was a bit of a mixed bag - with poor ticket sales meaning there were still places for the festival available on the day it started, but some outstanding performances from artists such as Amy Winehouse, Editors, and The Verve ultimately saving the day. The weather was also okay after an initial downpour.
Then […]
Is Amy Winehouse a singer? I have to ask because I very rarely get to actually write anything about her as a singer these days. Instead, the only reason she’s in the news is due to drinking, taking drugs, refusing to go to rehab, and punching fans.
And here’s another one of those stories. This time, […]
Radiohead have received almost nothing but praise for challenging music industry standards when they released In Rainbows on to the Internet last year, and invited people to pay what they wanted for the privilege of downloading the album.
In effect, this meant you could nab a brand new album by one of the best British […]
This time last week, Jay-Z was about to take to the main stage at Glastonbury to finally perform the gig which had caused a mass of hysterical controversy over the past few months.
In the run-up to the gig, I took a long, hard look at the controversy over the booking of Jay-Z as a […]
The Ting Tings seemed to come out of nowhere to become one of the hottest bands in the UK right now. They have even been noticed in the US after their song Shut Up And Let Me Go, which I recently reviewed on Killed By The Video Star, was featured on an Apple iPod advert.
I […]
Jay-Z finally took to the stage last night to fulfil his headline slot at the 2008 Glastonbury Festival. The gig was one of the most talked about of the year before it even happened, with many people feeling that Jay-Z and hip-hop weren’t right for a traditionally indie music festival.
I wrote a long piece last […]
Amy Winehouse managed to show up for two gigs in two days, and put on incredible performances at both the Nelson Mandela Birthday bash in London on Friday, and the Glastonbury Festival on Saturday. However, she put a black mark on her record by punching fan while performing Rehab, the last song of her set […]
