Jerusalaam Comes. It came to London and tore up the sector. Super dope music + great energy, good vibes & love manifested.

Jerusalaam Comes again, this time Juice Aleem's hometown Brum. So anyone in the zone (or not!), we invite you to come party with us. This is a celebration. Be a part of the movement. We assure you a righteously wicked night on hip-hop, dub, electro, bashy, mashup marvels.

The Live PAs come courtesy of stalwarts such as CIPHER JEWELS (MOORISH DELTA), The lady known as JUSTICE, microphone demons R.TILLERY & PROFESSOR D, hip-hop velociraptor THEWHATSUPREME (with SENSEI C), Brum legend MAD FLOW, SEROCEE the jammin commander.

Wheels of steel will be operated by ROC 1 (SUBSTANCE DONUTS), MOYMA, MZ C BROWN and dubstep stylings of SON OF KICK.

The ceremony will be mastered by super beyond dirty thespian MIKE LADD, flying in just for the occasion.

Another viral news cast from the social networks...this Rally in central Birmingham was widely know about but has seemingly suffered from a media shut down resulting in many people going uninformed.

Far right groups (the English Defence League and Casuals United ) and members or the anti facists groups (Unite Against Fascism UAF) fought in running street battles.



As that video shows some heads are still working on reporting on these events..
see Jason N. Parkinson's blog for some shocking stills of this piece and more.

Another installment of goodness from Elaquent this one In Color Vol 3 (Dirtier Loops). Conatins the tunes artwork and PDF's with why and how....he says:I dont even consider this an 'album' its a tape. The concept is simple when i listen to music i see colours, depending on the vibe and feel of the song so i figured why not throw a tape full of varying colours....
