Bluey Robinson

Yes, that is his actual name..

Bluey Robinson is a lovely-new-young-RnB star in the making and excellently, homegrown in the UK. His style reminds me of a mix between the beats and backings of Lupe Fiasco with lyrics of Kanye and vocals of John Legend. A hearty school of talent i'm sure you'll agree.

His first major release is called 'I Know' and has been getting a lot of support by BBC 1xtra for the general reason that it's totally amazing. Can Bluey finally bridge the huge gap in quality between UK/US RnB? I reckon that with his quirky style and cracking tunes, it's a definate possibility. Infact, i'm so smitten that i'm considering changing my name from Ed to Bluey.... Anyone with me? Oh...

Mr Hudson - Supernova

I'm still finding the Kanye/Mr Hudson collaboration an odd one. How the hell did this happen? A superstar world renowned black rapper making music with a slightly eccentric Oxford graduate.

Anyway, below is the video for their first track together, 'Supernova'. It's getting a lot of radio play and shows a distinct change of direction for the band...a direction i'm not all too keen on.

Have a listen....

I'm still, I'm still an animal

So, the other day in the post I recieved a physical copy of Calvin Harris' new single (woo) and a business card with the below picture on it.

Being the inquisitive type that I am I searched online and found out that it is artwork for new band Miike Snow. Have a listen...

What do you think? I really like it for reasons I can't exactly work out - I just spent the last hour

listening to it on repeat and all I've deduced is that his voice sounds a bit like Phil Collins....
