Sarkodie is a living legend, a pioneering Hip Hop icon who, one of the most successful African rappers of all time.
I’ve heard his name ring out for years, so it was dope to finally connect and talk to him on the day that
#NoPressure
his 6th album dropped 💫

It’s hard to make a classic album. Difficult it to do it a second time, and few artists manage to do it a third time, let alone get to a third album.
J Hus is one of our greatest artists. Unapologetically Hus. He isn't trying to be a pop star, isn’t validated by awards,…

'KOD' is exactly what I needed.
This is a sick body of work.
I dont want to hear any criticism, see any struggle reviews, or industry rule concerns.
This is 10/10 exemplary rap.
Donda is another pivotal marker in music, depth and substance from start to finish. Another dope album that will influence future generations of artistry, another classic body of work in the catalogue of Ye. Supreme excellence💫
One of the most successful African Rappers of all time is back in the UK to launch his 7th album.

Its time for me to say goodbye to BBC radio 1xtra. I was the first DJ signed to the station & for the last 15 years I’ve curated & played the best new music by the greatest artists, every Friday night. Its been an amazing experience, I appreciate every single moment spent on air.

Congrats to

on dropping Love, Damini another sick album.
Cloak & Dagger ft J Hus is a banger. The wordplay, the slang, & flow is elite. It will shut down dances, run the summer, & inspire.
Its so dope to see the Farda J Hus back outside 🙌🏽

I hope this guy is banned from radio, prevented from doing live events across the UK, and dropped by his label.
I hope the trident are paying attention to this threatening violent behaviour, and bring him in for questioning. I can never watch this show again. It isn’t a safe…

Another classic Kanye West album.
Another defining chapter in the life and times of Ye.
No need for reviews, ‘think pieces’, or any other click bait fuckery.
It is what it is. Straight excellence.
I went to Ghana for the first time, met some incredible artists, shot a video, started driving again, & got introduced to Ginger shots. Had the time of my life 🙏🏽🇬🇭

It doesn’t rewrite the attocities of what happened. But it is an excellent finish to the commemoration of a mass murdering, human trafficker.
Put this moment in the history books.
The people of Bristol dismantled, dragged through the streets, & then drowned the statue of a slave trader.
Perfect ending for someone who profited from the pain and despair of 80,000 men, women, & children.

Regardless, you can’t escape the fact that Kanye West is a master of sound, his catalogue is undeniable. He is one of the greatest to ever do it, his music speaks for itself. Every album moves the needl…
