Jay Wilcox & Roni Size - Sick & Tired

"Sick and Tired" is the catchy new single from Jay Wilcox produced By DnB mastermind Roni Size.

Combining an undeniably catchy brass theme (composed by Pete Bernard) and a feel good dance vibe this track is beginning to receive increasing support and attention wherever it is played.

The track is accompanied by by a rugged but stylish video shot on the mean streets of Bristol documenting the adventures of a hapless promoter struggling to put on an event and faced with constant setbacks along the way.

The Concept

"Sick and Tired" is a song based around the struggle of independent artists in todays music scene. Promoting oneself is hard to do and as we all know the life of an aspiring artist is never easy. "Sick and Tired" takes a not too serious look at the music game from the underground artists point of view..

Check out the video:



...soon to be on every major music channel. If you like this song and you want to hear more request it, book it, follow it, play it love it and support it!!

New video's from Da Label-MTG

Da Label always represent and hold it down for the streets of Bristol. Brought to you by 'streetzselectedtv' check out Uz's (President of Da Label-MTG) video for 'So Special' (taken from his mixtape "Real recognise real" out now for FREE download )


Also, with a new video 'TriggaDon' (of Da Label) brings you his video 'What They Choose' by streetzselected


TriggaDon also did a video with Rebel Productions recently, song entitled 'Live Long' a real story teller:

Sons of South Present: All Eyes on the South Volume 3 “Real Name No Gimmicks”

December 2009. The end of a decade that has seen X-Factor’s grinning puppet master Simon Cowell turn the UK’s prime time TV slots and record industry into a production line for churning out soulless pop androids. Across the pond rappers are releasing their own sports drinks and video games, as the next ‘cookie-cut’ baller appears on the scene to rap about the same tired topics.
For fans of fresh sounding beats, interesting concepts and charismatic MC’s
the outlook has been bleak… that is until now.

Sons of South, a collective of four MC’s, their DJ and beat maker (all from the Southern half of the UK – hence the name), have been bubbling under the surface, perfecting their craft since 2005 and now release the long awaited third installment in their mixtape series – ‘All Eyes on the South Volume 3 – Real Name No Gimmicks’.

Drawing on influences from the golden eras of East and West coast Hip Hop from the States and jungle, garage and grime from the UK, the four MC’s – Blaze, Naturekid, Prophecy and Verbal Remedy combine over a myriad of beats to deliver a flowing and consistently listenable 60 minutes of entertainment.

With each track the group demonstrate their versatility, as the four MC's combine effortlessly over various tempos and styles that have been laid down for them by the group's producer Terrorist and other beat makers from within the scene. All of the music is original, bucking the trend of the traditional mixtape format. Mixing duties are handled with flair and finesse by DJoe The Archiect, who took time out from his busy beat making, producing and DJing schedule between France and Spain to work with Sons of South on the project.

With ‘Real Name No Gimmicks’ available to buy from iTunes and other download sites to kick off 2010 and CD’s appearing in all good independent record stores at around the same time, Sons of South are looking to hit the roads of the South, West, North and East of the UK in the coming months. Look out for this innovative Hip Hop crew at a venue near you.
