(PDF of whole issue)

i've said before, and i'l say again, in the same way that many of us still go out and cop the physical copies of releases, we got to go out and support the magazines that still PRINT.

Quick one from work -

Following on from my tiny little bit on RudeKid, Blackdown had this interview with him up on his blog since May. I ain't a journalist cause I don't do the research.

Right here. .

Interrogating Martyn...

Big thanks to Alex for keeping me in the loop on these features. He first got at me a while back, but the email kinda got loss in my gmail abyss. Apologies.

Anyway. . glad I checked back now. . real nice interview with our favourite, Jose James.

Interviews with Ben Westbeech and Flying Lotus (and others..) are up at the site now. . Haven't time to check them now but will be doing so tomorow. . and almost definitely posting.

Kanye West Spin Interview

Quite like the interview, but I like the picture more. Thats why it warrants a post.

Concrete Loop Interview With Kanye

I don't like just reposting something from a different blog.. rather, i'd just stick it on the sidebar. However, I can't remember reading a Kanye Interview this good in a long time . Great site for your urban news too.
