Singing The Blues
It's his looks. It's his voice. Bluey Robinson, who is half-Swedish, half-Trinidadian by birth - yet a Londoner by nature - truly illustrates himself beyond the usual pop package, with an unmissable presence. 21-year-old singer/ songwriter Bluey has serenaded the West End as Simba in The Lion King, and showcased… Continue>

First job within the music industry - and how you got it? This is actually my first job in the music biz. I came across Soul 2 Streets via a producer who I befriended through Myspace. I'd just graduated from University and was looking to put my degree to use… Continue>

Radiant Star
I am sat in the pretentious Soho House. Far too pretentious for the likes of Corinne Bailey Rae, who joins me, (a day short of her 31st birthday), at a table in the restaurant. Continue>

T-Wayne
So the video for the updated version of 'We Are The World' makes for some interesting viewing. Barbra Streisand and Celine Dion in the same room as Snoop Dogg and DMX is always an occasion. One of the singers is wearing a jacket seemingly borrowed from Dr. Evil in the… Continue>

Preach On

Preach On
East coast native Preach Jacobs is an MC/ journalist hailing from Columbia, South Carolina, who (for me) re-ignites the 90s so-called lost genre of epic hip hop -  a sound true to rhyming and timeless instrumental transportation.
