I'm surprised there isn't a thread about this... What do you think of it? I think it's pretty cool!

There is bottom of page!
Don't think its too bad although I don't think he does himself justice on a Studio Mix, to get him you have to see him live & what he brings to the atmosphere in a rave.
Although most on here can't stand him anyway haha I book him several times a year & he always does a good job & folk in the rave at the time love him hence why I keep bringing him back.

Absolute ****ing gash. You can't honestly think this is good, this is another one of you career progression type stunts.
It's complete toss, off beat for most of the time, can't fit in all the words without it sounding like a garbled mess. 21 minutes is the absolute worst thing I've heard in a very long time

Wow! Sorry to get your back up arpz. I enjoyed it! So sue me. I don't see much difference to how he normally MCs... Maybe they had some timing issues during recording. Other than that I can't fault it.

Yeah you mean the Jamaican type speech? I think it's a good old bit of fun.

It's laughable in my opinion. Honestly, the whole thing is super awful, the comments on it pretty much sum it up. Fair enough, suppose I can't tell you what you like but definitely questioning your taste lol

I know it's a showcase of his vocals and lyrics, but his voice is too loud over the music for me to enjoy the mix at all (I won't be cynical and say it's 100% too loud!), if it were a little quieter it would have been more enjoyable.
Everyone kept referring to '21 minutes' and it's obvious why, it's embarrassing. It had no business being there, he isn't Jamaican (unless I'm horrendously mistaken), he was born in my home town funnily enough. Should have done something else there. I see why he did it, but it just sounds awful, to me at least.
I won't be too harsh or needless nasty, it clearly wasn't aimed at someone like me (feels weird to say that), I prefer MC's at the raves hyping the crowd rather than on studio mixes. Maybe he should release and album, not even necessarily hardcore, and get his words out that way.

Also just to be clear... If I don't have a positive word to say about something, I just won't say anything at all. That doesn't mean I'm not being honest when I give my review of something... I will give you an example. I Tweeted Calvin Harris a review of every release he has made, since I started hounding him. I didn't review his new track though, as I couldn't find enough positive words to say about it.

You should leave that 'dont say anything negative' attitude at the door when you come onto a discussion forum in my opinion.

Constructive criticism is good criticism. It's no good saying "your song is completely shit, now fuck off and take your pissy sample packs with you", especially from people who are just being spiteful. But if the only feedback anyone ever got was "sick tune bruv" and "OMG dis is da best", then that is just blowing smoke up their arse. By all means praise and compliment someone, but also tell them what you don't like and why.
As much as I find illiterate comments from faceless puppets beyond cringeworthy, intelligent seeming people just posting offensive comments about music they once enjoyed isn't impressive either.

It all came from being at an Oasis concert back in '95. I said "Who's that Mick Jagger wannabe?". A couple of weeks later I found out... It was Jarvis Cocker and he was No.1 in the charts as Pulp. So I have remained positive in my public opinion ever since.

I'm happy to give constructive criticism, but I do that in private. As I said, I'm not being positive just for the sake of it. If I don't have a positive opinion on something, I just won't give an opinion at all. My conscience eats away at me if I'm negative publicly.

But I mean not all negativity is bad. It's fine to say you don't like something. Just don't say "this is shite" when you were never going to enjoy it anyway.
You keep up the positivity anyway mate, that's a different matter entirely.
