Eh...
*shrugs* and *sighs*
There is not smilie that properly communicates how I feel about what I just watched.
It's really whatever. It'll cycle out.
I stay underground anyway. I mean, bad rap is everywhere, but I still manage to only listen to good current hip-hop.
The video literally looks like a shampoo/alcohol commercial though.

Dub in its purest form combined with roller skating and skateboarding is obviously going to hit number one, why did no one think of this before?

I believe it's the Loefah remix, he said something like that when he dropped it on Rinse

Dubstep dies every few days around here...
Can't find any mention of the fact that there's an upcoming Pearson Sound remix of Radiohead with a Four Tet mix on the flip.(only did a quick search though, so correct me if I'm wrong)...
The SBTRKT album thread got about 10 posts in it and a thread about a pop song being top of the charts is on 5 pages...
I find that there's too many good tunes to keep up with or afford. It's easy to avoid chart music, don't listen to Radio 1. Rinse has decent stuff on pretty much all day, 6 Music play decent stuff, there's loads of decent mixes on Soundcloud.

Nope, I quite like it too haha
Me too. I mean, in the context of the top 40 (http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/chart/singles) this tune is absolute fire! You know, i'm not exactly going to buy it or anything but if it came on the radio in the morning I would be ecstatic!
Well done Fresh! This is your singles chart equivalent of Bogart getting an Oscar for African Queen.

It's just interesting that some producers only dabble in a genre when it starts to get big. I wish every success to those who made dubstep what it is, be it in the charts or otherwise, but sometimes I can't help but think there are quite a few producers who'll jump on something like this to make some cash.
For the record, I don't really like it at all, seems a bit weak. It reminds me of when friends said they were into hip hop and what they really meant was they'd bought a G-Unit CD or some shit like that. So usually I just laugh, and keep the good, deep, dark stuff to myself and let 'em get on with it.

I heard DJ Fresh talking to Fearne Cotton (I think) earlier today. He was chatting shit about DnB just getting big now, what? I never was into that genre but hasn't it been and gone? Only being raped by the likes of him, Chase and Status and whoever else?
Dude sounded like a twat regardless

Although i only started listening in 07/08 i sure would'nt of thought so. Obviously its not too many peoples taste on here like myself but the development of the scene has been crazy.
Yeah, but if you got into dubstep because it was deep and dark and weird and moody then the fact that if you take out all of the deep bits, the dark bits, the weird bits and the moody bits and slap a pop vocal over the top you can get it into the charts isn't that exciting...
