Wretch 32 & Emeli Sandé - Underdog Law

On Friday Wretch 32 and Emeli Sandé hooked up for a studio session - two days later, after charting at 1 & 2 respectively, they have let go of this beautiful piano driven ballad which perfectly portrays both of their feelings about where they have come from to get to where they are right now. Wretch's album is currently sitting at number 5 on iTunes and Emeli sold out the London date of her forthcoming UK tour within seconds earlier today. Download your copy for free HERE.

Wretch 32 - F64 (SBTV Season 3)

Here is the first episode from the highly anticipated Season 3 of SBTV's critically acclaimed F64 series. Jamal has drafted in Wretch 32 for this one, who's new single is out @ midnight tonight and debut album is out on August 21st. One of the most talented MCs that this country has seen for years, maybe ever (yeah I said it). Go and support this guy, he deserves it.

Was planning on doing lots of catching up on my return from Cornwall, but there is far too much to do, so I recommend you just go and check SoulCulture, RWD, WeAreSme & 2DopeBoyz for everything that has been happening over the past 8 days. Personal highlights for me have been Watch The Throne x Otis video (of course) the You Need Me remix and the Common/NaS video. Got lots of exciting and exclusive stuff coming up in the next few weeks/months to make up for my time away. Promise.

Don't forget Ed's t-shirt competition closes @ 12am TOMORROW night! Enter HERE!

Random Impulse - Still They Sing

Spotted over @RWDMag, here are some cool visuals for Random Impulse's new single, which features cameos from Ed Sheeran, Professor Green & Wretch 32. As you can see from the live clips, the chorus on this one is incredibly easy to remember - the Wakestock crowd loved it. Got a lot of time for this guy and his music.

Wretch 32 - Don't Go (Feat. Josh Kumra)

A super sick video for the third single from Wretch 32's highly anticipated debut album, Black And White, which is out on August 14th. Had the pleasure of meeting these two this weekend and can safely say that they are two of the most down to earth guys I've met for a long time. Hope this does as well as it deserves to.

Wretch 32 - Don't Go (Feat. Josh Kumra) (DJ Fresh & Sezer Uysal Remixes)

Here are two smashing remixes of Wretch 32's third single from his upcoming debut album, Black & White. First up is a pretty abstract Electronic rework courtesy of DJ Fresh, who is the man that has brought us one of the songs of the Summer in Louder. The second is a brilliant Tech/Progressive remix from Sezer Uysal, who has been a popular figure on the underground scene for quite a few years now. Future Data don't let their artists put out poor remix packages, and this one is no exception, even though the Manhattan Clique remix is pretty poor. Enjoy, and make sure you cop Don't Go, which is out August 14th.

Wretch 32 - Don't Go (Feat. Josh Kumra)

Here is the 3rd single from Wretch 32's upcoming debut album, Black & White, which will be out August 14th on Ministry's sister label, Levels Entertainment. Everything about this is completely different to the two previous singles, but it's just as catchy and easy to love. Could very well be one of the albums of 2011 at this rate.

Faith SFX - Play Hard (Feat. Wretch 32) x Reach For The Sky (Feat. Little Dee & P Money)

Beatboxers/vocal percussionists are best known for their live performances and usually find it difficult to create a solid discography for themselves - Rahzel probably has the best, and even his isn't that impressive. Over the past few years Faith SFX has fast become the go-to-man when it comes to beatboxing in this country and has just dropped his highly anticipated debut album, Man Or Machine, which boasts a tracklist that is nothing short of spectacular. Upon clicking play I didn't really know what to expect, but I have to say that I love every single thing about it - he has drafted in the very best MCs in Grime and UK Hip-Hop to create an album that showcases everything positive about the Urban scene right now. Below are two of my favourite tracks - every MC on the album does their thing, but Wretch & P are the two that stood out for me (Cykologic deserves a mention too - never heard of him, but he blew me away). Genuinely one of the best albums of the year so far - get your copy HERE.

Wretch 32 & Example - Unorthodox (Live @ Radio 1's Big Weekend)

Wretch & Example performing their collaborative single to a relatively small crowd at Radio 1's Big Weekend in Carlisle. Still smacked it though, as always.
