Im sure virtually all musical instruments - bar maybe bongo drums, were created by white people, so maybe we should have an award thing to remind everyone of that

PS: ON the MOBO subject I shall merely reiterate what I said last year, and the year before With the possible exception of that wierd norwegian/icelandic eskimo stuff, ALL music is of black origin, even the stuff played for morris (moorish, geddit?) dancing.

Jimi Hendrix was just one of the best but why no (famous or really well known) black musicians in rock these days?

Oh, Elvis was influenced by black music, he didn't steal it, or did he?

Think you'll find he (management/studio) ripped off the artists concerned horrendously.

I don't know much about the history of Classical music so feel I am unqualified to comment, apart form to say it ain't eligible for most 'white' music award ceremonies either.

Country & Western ain't music, it's all basically one example of redneck trailer trash or another whining about how their Woman/Man/Dog/Horse upped and left 'em anyway.


Besides, everybody knows all music must have black roots, coz we white folks ain't got no riddim

Just take a drive through Wilmslow mate, it'll prove to you the old truth once and for all:- 'Money can't buy class'

CrispDuk, yep I live in Wilmslow and know what you mean, in fact I am living proof !

Could be worse, you colud live in Congleton !

Anyway, I think Macc is preferable to Wilmslow, Wilmslow is so snobby and pretensious.

Good point that, I am goping to start a rap career based around coming from the mean streets of Wilmslow in Cheshire.

How about,

I saw this guy, a real poor kid, clutching some wine bought for less than ten quid
He went out to his wheels and I felt pity he was rockin a Subaru which real ****ty.

He drove back to his crib in da poor part o town, there on a hill, a place worth less than a mill, he was feelin bad, he was feelin a fool cos life not worth **** if you aint got no pool.

Chorus

Wilmslow, Macc, Crewe and Hatton
from the Alderley to the top of Tatton
Caucasian, Middle-Class and healthy
Posh, White, Cheshire, its for the wealthy.

Apologies to the Beastie boys for the chorus

Well if you believe certain people in the Public Eye. Then Yes.

Happily, I dont beleive them. Ive seen the workplace. Ive seen that we have people from every different Race or Colour or Sex. And they all work hard and pay Taxes and contribute in one way or another to this country.

The people (or all types) that "claim" they had no choice but to go on to £20K a year in benefits or sell Drugs or mug people or steal things. Are just lazy *******s IMHO

On a Positive Note.

Sway won Best Hip Hop act
