2010 Gossip

I know it's late wishing everybody a new year (I've been sick for a while so I've been out of action) but I hope you all had a great time seeing in the new year!

So what do we have to look forward to in 2010? I'll be conducting a few interviews soon to see what everyone is up to, but in the meantime I have a few short & sweet updates to report:

- Tough Touch Productions - 'The Big Band Theory' which we've all been anticipating will be due for release in Feb this year. You can also catch the boys supporting RA Rugged Man next month.

- Blacksmith producer/rapper (whose production skills I find truly immense) is currently working on two e.p's set for release around March/April and an album is to follow in the summer featuring Blacksmith's own production as well as production from various producers throughout the country.
Blacksmith is also producing an E.P for Genesis Elijah due for release in the summer and there are also various other productions in the pipeline with some big names in the UK & US so watch this space peeps!!! Don't sleep on this dude!!
You can catch Blacksmith supporting Brother Ali @ The Croft March 16th.

- Krazy is currently working on a new mixtape with Greenz and another called 'In Da Lab Productionz Presents...' which will include around 50 tracks of his own, including features from artists such as Ceaze, Griz Bear, RE, Greenz, B-Tol, Yung Uk and many more!
Krazy has just finished recording a track with Balance for his new album 'alpha and omega' which is coming out soon. Besides from his music, Krazy will also be focusing on Fuck You TV and the next DVD this year.

- Ashlow of JROAD has his debut album entitled 'Along Time Coming' dropping in March/April. There will be 21 tracks featuring Hibbz, City, Nino, Gimson, Chin Killa, Columbo, Nemesis, Nitrus, RE and more... the album has over 8 producers involved.

- The lovely Hannah Collins (widely known for her vocals on DnB) has a new tune coming out on 7" in March, released by Italian label 'Record Kicks'. The track is written by Bristol's 'The Hawk' (Part of DJ's Maco n The Hawk) entitled "Don't judge a book by it's cover".
The tune has an old school soulful Motown vibe to it, Craig Charles recently played it on his show and I'm very pleased to say that Hannah will be doing more tracks with the Hawk this year.
