2008

Best concert
Q-Tip with Busta Rhymes and Consequence (Knitting Factory New York baby!) This concert was good on so many levels. 1. It was FREE! 2. I was in New York and just to be in the environment of so many hip hop heads was amazing. The mans/gyals chanting to every hip hop tune played. I was truly left in the shade realising that I still have a lyric or two to learn- "lah di dardy we like to party" I'm quite a newby (is there such a word) 3. Busta Rhymes came and sang a few verses. 4. Did I mention it was FREE! One of my top ten concerts, the atmosphere was just on a next level.




Best Albums
Q-Tip- Renaissance, after such a long wait it was good to see the brilliant Q-tip back in fine form. Loving the quirky look I'm ma try and fine me some of these glasses for 2009- yeah!




Jazmine Sullivan- Fearless



Neyo- Year of the Gentleman.
Such a talented song writer, this man has a lot of longevity. Miss Independent was my jam Sept 2009, W34th St (sniff sniff)




Dwele- Sketches of a Man (got me through many a journey on the New York subway, sniff, sniff)




Most over hyped artist
Lil Wayne- in my opinion anyway!



Best video
Jay Z Roc Boy's. Simply for all the cameo appearances. I have to take my hat off (not literally) to the Jigga man. He made an honest woman of Miss Knowles. He headlined Glastonbury festival, probably opened at least another two 40/40 clubs lol. Plus The Carters were the power couple to top the Forbes List at the latter part of 2008. Well done!




Most Annoying Song's


Lil Wayne- Lollipop see image for most over hyped artist. I'm not saying Lil Wayne is whack but he was very over hyped for 2008.

Snoop- Sensual Seduction



Mary J- Just Fine. I get the message and the song has a good meaning, but after hearing it a zillion times. I just cant take it!



Most Underrated Artist.

Lupe Fiasco, this man has done two albums and still hasn't received the props he deserves hmm...



I'm still flying the flag for the UK. Let's see what Sway brings for 2009, now that he is signed too Akon's Label.



I've probably forgotten many artists in my mini line up, My bad!
