Trailer: Hansel And Gretel: Witch Hunters


The only reason I'm giving this very strange looking film the time of day is because it has the amazing Jeremy Renner in it. Mr. Bourne delivers a new take on Hansel and Gretel as he and his psycho sister hunt down heavily CGI'd witches with rather massive guns.

Hmm.

Well, lets wait for the film to come out and take it from there, shall we?

New Era X Haze


Oh HELLO lovely hat.

We like a bit of you.

New Era have teamed up with graffiti artist and designer Eric Haze, known for his iconic logos for the likes of EPMD, Tommy Boy, Cooking Vinyl and album artwork for Public Enemy, LL as well as the writing on the Beastie Boys' Check Your Head cover.

The New Yorker recently got to work on a fitted that expresses his own logo as well as a nod to the streets of NYC. There are three colourways, to be launched at the New Era store in New York (4thStreet)  from Friday.

Ellie Goulding: Anything Can Happen



Well done Ellie Goulding. The Hereford singer what dates Skrillex is blowing up massivebig in the old US of A right now.

While it's her first album that they're loving (a little late Amerikee, but better late than never, eh), Ellie is preparing to unleash her second album over here.

Due in October, here's the 'bloody' great (you have to watch it to see that wasn't a gratuitous swear) video for the first single, the Jim Elliot produced Anything Can Happen.

Loves it.


G FrSH: Daily Duppy



"Now I'm too cold for a week off (weak cough)"

Now, it takes a pretty great freestyle to warrant a repost right?

Well this one from G FrSH is certainly derving of that.

Not only a nuts flow in parts, the double-entrendres and punchlines are actually off the scale. You need to listen to this at least four times to really appreciate properly. WORDPLAY FOR DAYS!

"Now I understand why they say money can't make you happy/ Cos I'm P'd Off'...
"Holla at Nike told 'em I did it/ My life's one big holiday I'm too cold for a week off...
"Paid for private education/ For my daughter cos she's amazing/ Wrote her a hymn to sing her praises/ "She ain't never sad cos iIm happy/ I'm too fly and flashy/ So she don't call me daddy/ She calls me paparazzi.
"When I'm dead burn me, so at least in death I earn (urn)"

Signed to Tinie and his manager Dumi's, Distrubing London label, G-FrSH is one of the UK's most unsung MC's.

Keep your eye on this guy.

the XX: CoExist

Their album isn't out for a week yet, but the notoriously shy xx have upped a stream of the follow-up to their self-titled debut.

It's what you might expect from the Young Turks signed trio. Gentle, quiet, lots of space, a bit beautiful in places.

Good work everybody!

Stream at NPR.

Doctor P: Galaxies And Stars



Not only a BRILLIANT tune but a GREAT song too.

Ohh, I would have LOVED to hear this at Carnival last week.

This mammoth track features the one like Ce'Cile.
