JC's weekly You Tube pick:
This week, The New MC Dikko! courtesy of brother Gérard, in Mauritius. I feel this guy might have his tongue in the pimpleless cheeks he's so proud of... if not, I'm seriously worried, cos he made me PISS MYSELF with his rhyme styles and charsima... BIM!

JC's weekly music selection:
Yo yo yo, so this one is from the one Collie Buds. Might surprise a lot of people to know this is a white reggae artist, out of Bermuda. Ranking alongside the like of Gentleman from Germany and YT from the UK, the sheer quality of this music transcends any racial f*ckery. This is what reggae is all about for me; it's a Universal Message, so it's big to see it having such an impact on a broad spectrum of peoples, inspiring them to create more positivity in the world. Respect Collie Budz, BIG TUNE. One Love.

Bob Marley, Stevie Wonder, Congo Natty, Chuck D, KRS-1, BB King, Muddy Waters, Saxon Sound System, King Tubbys, Super Cat - all those lates and greats that have laid the foundation of the music I enjoy most today.Fire on the Queen, burn down the palace.
