Let's roll free with some opinions! You all have freedom of speech. What do you like about the MC world? What do you want changed? Etc. Whizzkid will be watching!

I think a rave is missing something without MCs, but I prefer the 90s style host, rather then the "talk-as-fast-as-you-can" MC. Obviously some people prefer the rappers, I, personally, just don't. I'd sooner hear someone bigging up the crowd, generating noise etc, than someone talking about drugs and violence over happy music.
I've only met Whizzkid briefly a couple of times, and he was a stand up bloke every time.
Whizzkid, if you are reading this - I remember a while ago you had a lyric, "Well it's 1998 now, I said it's 1998, I got a feeling in my body that I just can't shake and it's making me feel so great - hey!" - not heard it for about 18 years, it'd be nice to bust that out again :)

When I was Westfest. I found a very similar setup to how all the MCs operate. Just each MC will have their own presence & stage moves. I've always found MC Whizzkid taking a relaxed style, but on the money with his spitting & crowd control & interaction. Skill!

MC Marley, Sharkey, Freestyle and Ronnie G. Proper MCs, never tried to out do the music but instead complement it. Whizzkid is probably the least egotistical, well from where I'm sitting, and is my favourite of what's about in the forefront of hardcore. Modern day hardcore is set up production wise for these guys to spit 32 bars of rhetoric. It's just how it is

Whizzkid just liked the post I made on Facebook linking him to this page. So his eyes are on us!

Yeah, I think he's doing a few more bits but after 2016 that's it for the most part I think. He's on about writing a book though :)

I loved Luna-C's book and Bunter's was great as well, I hope a few more do it. I hope Vibes does one, and I could imagine Seduction's would be decent. Slipmatt too.

Loved Luna-C's and recently Terry Turbo's as well. Some interesting Slipmatt shenanigans in that one :)

Is Terry Turbo's worth a buy then? I'd completely forgotten about it actually.
Man Parris is writing one that could be interesting too.
