Jigga What?
Michael Eavis founder of Glastonbury Festival gave an interview to the Guardian yesterday regarding next years Glastonbury. And I’m gonna be honest, it disheartened me.
“Rapper Jay-Z triumphs in headline spot, but Eavis says risk too great to repeat.
Glastonbury festival will ‘revisit its musical roots’ next year with guitar-based bands returning to the headline slots. The move comes after the controversial decision to select the US rapper Jay-Z as the main headline act at this year’s event.
Organisers are now considering Coldplay and Radiohead for next summer, bands that have delivered renowned festival performances.
The decision to abandon the experiment with more diverse headliners is likely to confound the music press, widely believed to have been won over by the rapper’s show at the event. The hip-hop artist was warmly received by fans and sceptics alike yesterday. “
So what? Nothing was learnt from Jay-Z’s performance at Glastonbury? That maybe Hip-Hop does deserve a place on the main-stage at Glasto? Apparently not.

I think next years three headliners should be Coldplay, Kanye West and Radiohead, now thats a festival that will sell-out in hours.

Vula got next
If you have any doubts about vocal talent in the UK, Vula will end all arguments with one riff. After the catchy ass “oh my gosh” via the Jaxx, Vula is finally about to do it on her own with If You Want It.
Post performance I’ll be dj-ing as well as Basement Jaxx so make sure you pass through.
I’m pretty sure the tribe will be down in full effect too…
This, The Cool Kids AND the Insa show…what a Tuesday

Next Please!?
With so much female talent in the UK right now, alot of people are starting to point fingers at who they think are next. Alot of fingers a waving towards Cock N’ Bull Kid, but I am gonna buck the trend and wave my finger towards Croydon.
GoldieLocks has produced for the likes of Tinchy Stryder, Mutya Buena, Example, Shy Child and Frisco. She has been described as ‘the missing grimey member of The Sugababes’. Who do you think is next? Cock N’ Bull Kid, GoldieLocks, Miss Odd Kid, Neon Hitch, your mum?
