some things i find common
besides the obvious music on mobile phone loudspeakers, tramp stamps, ugg boots and mothers more focused on their phone conversations than their gobby little kids..

The 'Hock Laugh'

You know how when you take a big sniff to clear your nostrils, then when you excise the snot from the back of the throat ready to spit it out it makes the disgusting 'hock noise'?

There's a tendency for urban youngsters, when they laugh on impulse or at something extremely hilarious to laugh using this noise instead of the standard human laugh noise.

The funnier the 'joke' the louder and more extended the Hock Laugh - Filth!


Modern Baby Names

Let's just say it's tough to keep a straight face when your friend and his pregnant girlfriend tell you they're thinking of naming their baby girl (due in a few short months) Mckenzie... whilst both wearing Mckenzie hooded jumpers.


McDonalds

The preserve, staple and life-blood of the common


Eurodance - i.e. Cascada, Basshunter, DJ Sammy et al & 'Jump Up' Drum & Bass & Bassline House

Now i love all varieties of music me. I'm not only into one scene and my iPod attests to that.
Under the dance music umbrella i love dubstep (bypassing the derivative 'wobblers'), dark garage, tech house, Liquid Drum & Bass, a dash of grime (it's not all guns, bitches and ho's - see JME), a bit of funky and glitch/broken beats.

But for the life of me i swear varieties like Eurohouse, most Drum & Bass (On the whole D&B does stand for Dead & Buried) and the godforsaken genre that is Bassline House just cater for the lowest of the low on the social development scale


length is good :)

JME
Who be they? I'd like to expand the contents of my iPod to beyond heavy metal and cheesy 80s pop. However I can't get into hip hop/rap/whatever it's called due to the fact that many hip hop types can't sing about anything other than driving fancy cars, treating women like pieces of meat (I'm willing to bet a good number of them are so far in the closet they're in Narnia and it's all a big act) and being shot at (if someone tried to shoot me, I'd be wondering what I done to make them do that).

Do agree on all the Euro dance rubbish though. Can't they do anything apart from sampling 70s/80s tunes? Scooter, Eric Prydz and Uniting Nations, I'm looking at you.

JME is part of Boy Better Know
a grime group consisting of Skepta and occasionally Wiley (of wearing my rolex infamy)

He deliberately avoids the guns/cars/starting fights with other MC's topics and in fact takes the piss out of those that do

Check him out on Myspace or get the Boy Better Know radio show podcasts on what is probably the worlds best pirate radio stationRinse FM (Which is also a good repository for some other good music)

All this sounds like a press release, but i'm not affiliated with the above i swear!
