Wow. Me and Littls spent a good couple of hours last night bumping Jasy’s Victory tape. Anyway. Here’s some footage from way back in the the early 00s when Benzino was waging his war on Eminem. And look who’s backing him up!

Forsooth:

“You ain’t waging war against [Eminem]… it’s against the same power that’s backing George Bush. The same people that Greenspan bow down to, the same people that Bush bow down to, the same people that Jimmy Iovine bow down to. The international banks, that create war… in waging war on Eminem you’re disturbing a global plan for domination.”

…in order for Satan to put a lasso on hip-hop so that he can control it, which ultimately will lead to him controlling the minds of the masses of people, he has to put his chess piece out there, Eminem. They tried it with Vanilla Ice, they tried it with Marky Mark. But it wasn’t successful.”

I wonder what he makes of Juston Bieber and Asher Rothschild? And Drake for that matter….

Fuck.

I know what a Jedward is.

Weeks in the happy land of I DONT KNOW OR GIVE A CRAP…

And now, I am AWARE…

And I am only aware cos I have had bloody Twitter rolling as I sit here all poorly-la listening to Conspiracy Worldwide and working on the new ATD shop. Bloody Twitter went nuts for about half an hour because Calvin Bloody Harris jumped onstage during the Jedward performance of Queen AND Vanilla Ice’s Under Pressure/Ice Ice Baby, wearing this:

pineapple

GAH!

So there you go.

I know what a Jedward is now.

It is this:

Haaaaaaa-le-lujah!

Props (I think) to Chantelle Fiddy.

Last night was great, by the way – I have been back on CDs for my last two DJing engagements due to a dead laptop, and to be honest I have really enjoyed it. There’s a weird freedom in having a limited number of CDs to work with, no computer to worry about crashing, and the room to piss around with BPMs and mix stuff together on the fly (Prince’s Kiss > Daft Punk’s Da Funk > Dizzee’s Sirens > Ghostbusters > Skee Lo > Eye Of The Tiger > Rio > Got Your Money > Gravel Pit, and so on and so on), meaning I had more fun DJing than I have for ages. I played loads of Ole Dirty too. Seven joints, I think. RIP.

DJing then – ace. I think I will do more of it. Book me, I am ready and awesome.

So, yeah, I am a bit under the weather, which has been brewing all week. I have been fighting it off with my superpowers, but it got me today, and I had to stay in and hide from the foul weather so as to avoid getting fucked up for the next week. This means I missed a rehearsal with my brothers Jim and Joey today, and seeing Carter USM play their first two albums in Brixton tonight. Woe! I could have been going crazy to A Prince In A Pauper’s Grave, and instead I know what a Jedward is. Damn! Well, at least this Rakim interview I have been listening to has been edifying, and this new shop is coming along nicely. You’re gonna be able to buy more than one thing at once! The MP3s will send themsleves out IMMEDIATELY! ARE YOU READY?!?!?!?!?!?!

This is like some crazy kind of class war or something. He wouldn’t talk to Max B like that!

“Do you get tired of people comparing you to….

Vanilla Ice?”

WEDI SERVIO!

Asher then REFUSES to spit on Ice Ice Baby, which is kinda lame.
