My week

I've been a bit slow on the updates this week because of uni. This post is gonna be different to the others seeing as I haven't had the chance to research the usual music or movie news I'll tell you what's happened to me. This week has been crazy! There have been a few deadlines for me to meet and I was able to meet them all YAY! But at a price. Sleep deprivation!!! I’ve been going sleep at like 4 everyday and then waking up at 8. I wasn’t a happy bunny I tell ya. However I was able to get it all done so I’m happy now.

On Friday I was able to go to The Comedy Store down Leciester Square and I’d recommend it to anyone. I was a bit sceptical at first cos I didn’t know what to expect but it was very good. Once again this made for another 4am bed time but it was cool.

So then you’re thinking, Saturday = lie in. WRONG! Not when you have a driving lesson in the morning. Oh well! I like to drive and have just recently got back on it after stopping during the holidays. Well not to worry I’ll get to have a nice sleep tonight then. Nope, wrong again! (you're not very good at this are you?) I’ll be going round my friend’s house tonight and getting my grubby mitts on the Wii. Last time I went to my friend’s house we were up til 8 in the morning just chilling and what not and I’m expecting the same to happen tonight, gotta soldier on I guess. I’ll give a review on it and its games in my next post. Anyways Xmas is only around the corner and holidays start next week! Can't wait.

Music....Back for the 3rd time


Hey! After a hectic schedule I thought I'd give you all an update on the music scene.
First of all big news. Jagged Edge have been dropped by the record label Sony/BMG since Sony decided to break up its Sony Urban division. Well maybe this is not BIG news seeing as Jagged Edge haven't had a hit since... well I can't even remember but it has been a slow news week so this is the biggest news of the week. I'm sure they'll get picked up by someone but saying that their last album entitled Jagged Edge was a major let down. Their style hasn't changed in years and frankly I'm bored of it and maybe Sony are too.

Following these lines it seems that one of my favourite music groups 112 are 1 man down. Daron who sings about half of the leads on all their albums has decided to make it on his own. Whether the other 3 members Slim, Mike and Q decide to continue as a group remains to be seen but they are all currently releasing their own material as well. This is a major shame as I think that their music is really good even though most people wouldn't agree. 2 of their albums, Room 112 & Part III, made an appearance in my Critical List found at the bottom of this page and saying that Part III may be my favourite ever album. Why don't you show me your opinion on the following question;


What would be worse? No more...
112
Jagged Edge



I will soon be reviewing Brian Mcknight's new album Ten as well as Mos Def's new album True Magic so be sure to look out for that

Also another reminder to check out the music player found at the bottom of this page (the grey box between The Critical List and the web page counter)
