SAXON SOUND INTERNATIONAL

2011-12-25T05:22:00.000-08:00

Throughout the years to follow Saxon became and was internationally known as the Number one U.K Sound System who was in a class of there own with there Dubplates and worldwide renowned artiste's feared by sound systems and DJ's from all over the Globe. Saxon studio started playing out as a party set back in 1976, playing at local parties weddings and small functions in their community of Lewisham, South East London.Circa 1982 they had a dance called 'DJ Jamboree' held in Lewisham, That dance was the start of new things to come for Saxon, people were coming from all over to see this sound perform. The entertainers grew and grew if one left then two more would approach us for a chance to be on the sound.In 1984 Saxon sound was given a record label by Greensleeve's Chris Blackwell to use to promote the Saxon Singers and DJ's this label was called The 'UK Bubblers' Signed to this label were Saxon's Tippa Irie, Daddy Colonel, Daddy Sandy and Daddy Rusty.The first artist to emerge on Saxon was Papa Levi then came Maxi Priest Followed by Smiley Culture, all of whom had No:1 hit records and were all signed to Major record labels.In November of that year they recorded their first live LP called 'Coughing Up Fire' which turned out to be a great success for the sound system and their DJ's.By This time DJ Papa Levi had already reached the Number 1 Spot in the English and Jamaican Reggae charts, with his record 'Mi God Mi King' and still to this day he is the only UK artist to have reached poll Position in Jamaica, and the first UK act to perform on Reggae Sunsplash. Also in that year and years to come Saxon had to face hard competition from other Sounds from all over the country. Like: Java, Unity, Coxsone, Volcano, Young Lion, Fatman, Ghetto Tone, Taurus, & Viking. {To Name a Few}.In 1985 Saxon stepped up the pace by being the 1st sound from the UK to do a full tour of the USA this caused a lot of anger from their UK counterparts. The tour was a great accomplishment and gained them worldwide recognition. This tour led to more international duties i.e. Jamaica, France, Germany, Bermuda, Sweden, Zimbabwe, Israel & Holland.In 1985. Maxi Recorded His 1st LP 'You're Safe' In 1987 Maxi made the connection with Sly and Robbie and the self titled "Maxi Priest" album hit the charts internationally. This album contained the cover of Cat Stevens' "Wild World" which received heavy airplay world-wide.In the year of 1986 Tippa Irie's 'Hello Darling' Reached into the Top Ten of the UK Pop Charts. This then led Tippa to become Europe's 1st international reggae act which then led Saxon to a more dates in Europe and onto Television programs. Whilst things were looking up for Saxon Things were even better for Smiley Culture he had two UK pop entry's 'Police Officer' and 'Cockney Translation' the latter of which went straight to number one. This opened many doors for Smiley, He received a television contract to make a TV show called 'Club Mix' On Channel 4.Over the years sound systems changed, with the introduction of pirate/Community radio stations and radio DJ's. Many of the sound systems dropped out of the game this led to the opening of the Juggling style of playing were you would have five radio presenters and their records playing in the clubs and no sound system would be needed. This was also the downfall of Live Entertainment in the dancehalls. Many sound systems had to keep up with this fast pace and had to change to match the new trend. Saxon stayed into the game but this time without the DJ's.This New format took some time to get used too, but the die hard Saxon fans stayed with them.In March of the following year there was a lot of controversy about Saxon when they lost the World Sound Cup Clash in Edmonton's Roller Express,to Body Guard from Jamaica. Saxon are still touring the globe and have been the 1st choice sound of many performing artistes when they are doing stage shows as they still command a full following wherever they go.Saxon Sound have reached the pinnacle of their trade and are still revered as the Number 1 Sound system in the eyes and hearts of many.September 12th Saxon were requested to play in Birmingham For the 1992 UK SOUND CUP CLASH which included 'Luv Injection', 'V-Rocket', & 'Stereo Phonic'.Saxon came through this ordeal with cup in hand to retain their undisputed title as the UK's Number 1 Sound. However Saxon never gave up, This only made them stronger to continue to prove themselves the real champions. And in April 1994 they had the chance to prove it once again, when they were invited to the Sanctuary in Milton Keynes to battle for the World Sound Cup.This time Saxon's opponents were 'Kebra Negus, 'King Addis' and the 1993 cup holders 'Body Guard'. After a very hard combat Saxon came through unscaved to win the 1994 World Sound Cup.Saxon Makes a special effort to give their everlasting fans some old skool music live on the sound with the singers and DJ's plus any Touring acts from JA And UK, At the NottingHill Carnival, West London every year.

WORLD CLASH 1998

2011-12-25T05:09:00.000-08:00

Look to the history of Irish & Chin's World Clash!! The dynamic Duo Irish and Chin have been credited.by many in sound clash circles to have single-handedly revived the sound clash scene in New York City. In 1998, amidst a series of successes in promoting sound clashes, Irish & Chin decided on a World Clash that would take the best of the best and pit them against one another in a neutral arena. The venue was Club Amazura in Queens, and the invited sounds were Killamanjaro from Jamaica, Downbeat from Bronx, USA, and Coxsone from the UK. Squeeze from 93.5 FM was dubbed timekeeper for the night! This clash had a somewhat Foundation flava to it, but the flyer clearly mentioned that tunes from the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s would be played. As history would have it, Downbeat (led by Tony Screw) teamed up with Killamanjaro (then played by none other than the mighty Ricky Trooper), to eliminate a very irritable Coxsone from the competition.. Then the two battled it out, with Trooper (using "anything fi win") snatching the Trophy from Downbeat's grasp and taking it back to Jamaica. Memorable moments from this clash included:The huge forward received by Downbeat's Marcia Griffith "You Gonna Die Die Die" dub rendition of her popular "Feel Like Jumping" Studio One hit! This sealed Coxsone's elimination from the Dub-Fi-Dub! -The Ziggy Marley dub played by Coxsone (rendition of one of his father's hit song, "One Drop") and the fuss that Coxsone made when they were eliminated from the Dub-Fi-Dub!! -The [then] brand new Bounty Killa dub ("Can't Believe Mi Eye") Ricky Trooper played to buss the dance in the Dub-Fi-Dub when everyone else was relying on foundation tunes, hence his saying "... anything fi win!"

GANGSTER PARADISE JERUSALEMA

2011-12-24T12:30:00.000-08:00

Starting off with simple smash and grabs, and petty crime, Lucky Kunene quickly graduates to more aggressive heists such as armed robbery and carjacking. Soon, Lucky realizes he needs a bigger score to fulfill his goals of making it big, and escaping from the slums, to a dream house by the sea. Kunene hatches an elaborate and violent plan to make his fortune - hijacking buildings from landlords of Johannesburg tenements by winning the favor of the tenants and then holding their rent hostage from the landowners. His high-profile real estate acquisitions attract the attention of the local police force who have no qualms about using unprovoked brutality to bring him down. His trouble with the law, coupled with an escalating war between a local drug lord, creates a tense standoff: both sides are closing in, and Kunene must stay one step ahead--or his empire, and his life, will come crashing down.

CHRIS ROCK NEVER SCARED

2011-12-02T10:54:00.001-08:00

Chris Rock - Never Scared is the fourth time he has appeared in an HBO special. It's a very unique comic performance. Filmed at the DAR Constitution Hall in Washington, DC, the show starts off slowly, with Rock doing material about strippers and rap music that really is more nasty than funny. But he quickly gets back to the hilarity when talking about Michael Jackson and the King Of Pop's relatives, as well as NBA baller Kobe Bryant and RNB star R. Kelly. The laughs come fast and furious through the middle of the show in a big, big way!.However, the surprise comes in the second half when the concert changes again, and this is where the routine becomes almost too true to be funny. Rock prowls the stage and talks of some very serious topics from some very intriguing angles. He's almost preaching a sermon when speaking of the difference between "rich" and "wealth." His points about marriage and Affirmative Action could be put in a Sociology textbook! It's simply brilliant and razor sharp commentary.Rock claims his place as the top stand up in the country with this performance.

CHRIS ROCK NEVER SCARED

CHRIS ROCK KILL THE MESSENGER

2011-12-02T10:54:00.000-08:00

Chris Rock's fifth stand-up special for HBO, Kill the Messenger. It wasn't anything the comic was saying. That was all funny. It was what he was wearing.I'll explain. The special was filmed at three different concerts in three different countries: South Africa, England and America. In his fifth special, Rock is as funny as he's ever been -- almost. I can't say that Kill the Messenger is as strong as either Bring the Pain or 2004's Never Scared, but it's still as funny or funnier that two-thirds of most stand-up comedy out there right now.
Part of what makes Messenger so strong is that it was recorded just months before the potential election of the first African-American President (go back and listen to Bring the Pain from '96 and hear Rock talk about how a black guy will never even be Vice-President, much less President). The entire first third of the special is devoted to politics and race, and it's the strongest section; Rock remains one of the sharpest and most refreshingly honest observers of modern America.The remainder of the set suffers a little by comparison. Compared to the pointed timeliness of his political material, a long bit about the differences between men and women feels a little tired (and, at times, kind of misogynistic -- once again conjuring memories of Eddie Murphy: Raw). Rock is able to mine this territory better than most, but it's far from the best material he's ever written or performed.A word about the "style" of the special. While at first it seems like the whole 'three countries' thing is little more than a gimmick, it does offer some valuable insight into Rock as a comedian. For the most part, the show edits the three performances seamlessly into one another. But more than once, it's edited in such a way that it repeats certain lines or phrases for emphasis (Rock likes to repeat things normally, so it becomes a bit of overkill) and you're able to see just how well-rehearsed and consistent Rock is as a comic. Every gesture, every cadence, every inflection has been honed so that all the performances are almost exactly alike -- even though so much of it feels like Rock is improvising it on the spot.

So, while Kill the Messenger isn't exactly Chris Rock's finest hour (actually, it's more like 75 minutes), it offers enough laughs and features enough of the comic's strengths -- anger, frankness, vulgarity -- to be worth a recommendation. It doesn't show much growth, but it does suggest that Rock is coasting at a pretty high level.

SOUNDARMADA (ARNHEM,NL)

SOUND ARMADA is not a stranger in the Dutch soundbusiness. Playing out since 1998, Wilfman has been able to surprise the crowd with vibrant selections every single time. From obscure foundation tracks till the latest bashment banger, there's something for everybody in the dance when 'Armada ah play'.It was at age 13 that Wilfman discovered reggae & dancehall music and from that moment never looked back. A new chapter in his life started, trying to spend every penny he earned on the latest releases out of Jamaica or the biggest classic Ska, Rock Steady and reggae tunes.Because of his wide selection of Jamaican popular music and the ability to cater the crowd in a creative way, the one-man army SOUND ARMADA was born in 1998.
After dropping one of his earliest mixtape's in his Arnhem home town, it was Activator from Arnhem's own FATAL SOUND, well known for the 'Reggae Roadblock' concerts & parties, who saw the talent and made Wilfman a household name at his dances in the 'Willemeen' venue. Playing alongside FATAL and at Reggae Roadblock parties, Wilfman got to meet & see the Dutch & international dancehall fraternity and found out that his style of playing was actually appreciated by the people whom he looked up to.From those late 90s till now, SOUND ARMADA has played at numerous Dutch venues with sounds like the aformentioned Fatal Sound, but also sounds like Herb-A-Lize It, Foundation Sound, United Sounds, Ovadoze Movement, Skank Around Sound, DJ Ivoryman, Riddim Shower HiFi Power, Keytown Sound, Jahva Sound, Pow Pow Movement (Ger), Freddy Krueger (JA) and provided warm-up and after parties for the crowd at concerts from for instance Tony Rebel, Queen Ifrica, Beres Hammond, Gregory Isaacs, Baby Cham, Pinchers, Cocoa T, Black Uhuru, Eek-A-Mouse, Max Romeo, The Ethiopians and many many more.It was in the early 2000 years that Wilfman found out there was a slot available at local radio station RTV-Arnhem. Eagerly to spread his beloved jamaican music to a bigger audience, he applied for an interview. One interview and a 30 min test run later was enough to convince the program director which resulted in the birth of SOUND ARMADA RADIO in februari 2002. In the first years with a weekly hour on Wednesday, showcasing old & new material in the reggae/dancehall genre, but as of 2004, 2 hours on Tuesday evening mainly concentrating on brand new releases with an occasional 'classic' throwback selection.Because of the growth of internet and social media sites, (and last but definitely not least Wilfman's musical selections) SOUND ARMADA RADIO became one of the most frequent listenend reggae & dancehall radio shows in Holland with more people tuning in from all over the world as we speak. Listen for yourself, every Tuesday @ 9pm (cet). Check the live stream @ www.soundarmada.nl.

Jürgen 'Joggo' Seedorf was born on the 29th of October 1980 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Joggo joined a band that played Kaskawi, a traditional style of Surinam music.After playing five years of Kaskawi, the love for reggae took over and Seedorf decided it was time for him to do what he always wanted: he went solo and took a shot at his big love: reggae music.Ever since he was a little boy he always looked up to the legendary Robert Nesta Marley and to this day Bob Marley remains his biggest musical and spiritual inspiration.In 2008 Joggo signed to Dredda Records and started working with producer Decko.The message that Joggo is trying to spread amongst the people is peace, love, unity and respect!

Success is no stranger to Benïssa. Back in 1996 he founded the first Dutch singing r&b-rap-reggae combination group called Arnhemsgewijs. Lloyd DeMeza was invited to be the lead singer of the group. The result was two top 5 single hits and a hit album in the Netherlands. In 1998 Benaïssa, that time known as Kenny Wise, toured Germany and Europe as the opening act for such reggae dignitaries as Michael Rose, Michael Prophet and Frankie Paul. Benaïssa is one of the few real talented reggae singer/songwriters from the Netherlands and proved, by opening the Sean Paul show in The Hague in 2003, that he is able to rock a massive crowd.

Narrated and executive produced by Ice-T, this VH1 documentary explores how crack cocaine had a major impact on popular culture, especially the evolution of hip-hop. Twenty five years after the drug ravaged many American cities, Ice-T talks honestly with several of the dealers who became rappers, transforming contemporary music. The film candidly shows how hip-hop reflected the crack epidemic, with frank interviews with such survivors as Snoop Dogg, Cypress Hill’s B-Real, and Wu-Tang Clan’s RZA. Using rare footage and creative animation, all set to iconic beats, Planet Rock also examines how crack changed this country politically and socially, especially because of the hysterical media reaction to the crisis. After the screening, our panelists will assess all the changes, from music to fashion, engendered by the crack revolution.

RANDY'S 5Oth ANNIVERSARY

2011-11-09T08:45:00.000-08:00

From Kingston, Jamaica to Jamaica, New York, respect is due to Randy’s because the former Kingston-based retail shop and studio, which eventually grew into the world’s leading reggae label VP Records, set the trend. Celebrating 50 years in the business on a DVD."Randy’s 50th Anniversary" brings together 50 of the studio’s greatest productions organized by era and features musical icons like Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Toots & The Maytals, The Skatalites and Dennis Brown. With extended liner notes from esteemed historians Steve Barrow and David Katz and a complementary 40-minute DVD loaded with interviews, Randy’s 50th Anniversary provides an in-depth audio/visual experience on the birth of reggae during what is arguably its most creative period.

Founded in 1958 by Vincent and Patricia Chin, Randy’s was the first complete package - studio, distribution, sales and most importantly vibes. Producers and artists crowded Idler’s Rest—a famous spot around the corner of Randy’s—to get a chance to record in the studio. Many legends today made their mark at this historic location from Bob Marley and The Wailers’ ground-breaking album Catch A Fire to Peter Tosh’s first two solo albums Legalize It and Equal Rights. According to reggae luminary Pat Kelly, Randy’s had “the sound people want. We can call it the ghetto sound. The real roots sound.”From the very start, Randy’s linked itself to the popular yet controversial musical styles of the day – particularly ska, roots and dub reggae. Disc One 1960-1971 features the early politically motivated ska tunes “Independent Jamaica” from Lord Creator and “Malcolm X” from the Skatalites, the Bob Marley & The Wailers cover of the Archie’s pop single “Sugar Sugar” and “John And James” by a youthful Toots & The Maytals displaying their spiritual and subtly subversive style. The first album also features musical pioneers like the great trombonist Don Drummond on “Machine Shop”, organ player Jackie Mittoo on “End Dust” and the original sound system deejay Winston ‘Count Machukie’ Cooper on “Warfare”.From ska to reggae, to dub to Jamaica’s leading singers, Reggae Anthology: Randy’s 50th Anniversary is a history of reggae culture from its beginnings in the 1960s to perhaps its most ingenious peak in the 1970s. This commemorative release puts these influential music-makers in their proper place, the hands of reggae collectors and music fans everywhere. Respect to Randy’s every time.

HORACE ANDY PALEO FESTIVAL 2004

2011-11-06T11:06:00.000-08:00

The Paléo Festival de Nyon, usually just called Paléo, started in a small way in 1976 as the Nyon Folk Festival. It was differently located, near the Lake Geneva and had only two stages. But today it is the second biggest open-air music festival in mainland Europe, after the Sziget Festival. Today this event has grown to include internationally known artists. It has also moved towards the plaine de L'Asse, accessible either by walking, bus or the Chemin de fer Nyon-St-Cergue-Morez narrow-gauge railway.
The festival lasts six end-July days, from Tuesday to Sunday and the final main stage concert is preceded by a great firework display with music.
Since its start, 3.5 million spectators and 2500 artists have been part of the Paléo Festival.

JAVA NUCLEAR STONEBRIDGE PARK 1987

2011-11-05T11:09:00.000-07:00

Coming straight out of North London, namely Harlesden are JAVA Nuclear. Comprising of 4 members: Becks, Bunig B, Mega Man and Belly G, the sound has been established for 25 years with the latest members making up the second generation with ages ranging from 21 to 26.JAVA Nuclear was founded by Colonal Brigadier, Macca, Joe 90 and Chanter Irie. Sadly the person who named the sound Giant is now deceased.Becks and Bunig B originally hail from Stonebridge with Belly G coming from Harlesden and Mega Man originally from Jamaica. Belly G has been with the sound the longest at just 18 months whilst Becks and Bunig joined a year ago and Mega Man came along 8 months after them.
Prior to being on JAVA, Becks and Bunig used to play out at various parties using their aliases whilst Belly G was on a sound system called Roadrunner. They believe that JAVA is unique as a sound in that it is "one of the only sound to have its own system and equipment".Each member got into the sound business via different means. Becks and Bunig played on a local radio station called Peoples Choice in 1993 while Belly G was promoting dances and Mega Man had an uncle who used to run a studio. As with their experiences, their inspirations were also varied. Becks and Bunig state they got into the business "through listening to Traffic Jam, Unique FM (and) Irie FM" whereas Belly G was listening to Bob Marley and Mega Man was "listening to sound tapes in Jamaica".All the sound members enjoy "the buzz of watching people enjoy the music", but dislike "packing up afterwards". They class themselves as a juggling sound, but concede, "We have a few scores to settle". So this status might change in the future. They love all their dubs, but favourite artists include Bounty Killer, Capleton, Elephant Man, Harry Toddler and Lexxus.As yet they have not been abroad on tour as a sound, but have been to a number of places in England including Manchester, Birmingham, Huddersfield, Nottingham and Leeds. They would love to tour Holland, Jamaica and the USA.
Currently the sound feels that Dancehall Reggae music is "on the up" because "the rhythms are getting faster (and) the artists are speaking their minds more freely".If they weren’t involved in the sound business, Becks and Bunig would be on a radio station with Belly G still promoting and Mega Man would be an MC. They advise up and coming sounds "don’t throw any records away no matter how old they are. Never give up trying."Their plans for the future include "putting ourselves on the same pedestal as our predecessors" and they’d like to get "people talking about us in a positive way". They want all their fans to know that "the name is the same" although the faces might have changed. Basically they are "the next generation of JAVA Nuclear power" and we need to keep an eye of them.

JAMAICA MON AMOUR

2011-10-26T04:24:00.001-07:00

"Jamaica Mon Amour" is taking us back to the roots of reggae music. The movie is shot in Jamaica and the audience is able to see the very places where Bob Marley turned his talent in to history. Tuff Gong - the studio where Bob recorded some of his biggest hits is also included in this documentary.The journey goes through many small record shops where music is still printed to vinyl and we also see the big music production studios. Why do I say it is special it is because the movie was filmed for the celebration of Rototom's 15th anniversary and was made out of pure love towards Reggae Culture. Apart from everything connected to music the movie shows the contradictions of this country. It shows us the problems of the normal people and of course their joys. If you want to see Jamaica from another point of view, have no doubt that this movie is for you.

This roots play depicts the reality of this lifestyle in a hilarious way.In a playful riff on the desires of Jamaican women, this comic play describes how they like their "sugar," or intimate encounters, sweetened with a little material generosity from a figure they refer to only as "daddy."

REGGAE GOT SOUL TOOTS AND THE MAYTALS

2011-09-19T11:31:00.000-07:00

The untold story of one of the most influential artists ever to come out of Jamaica, Toots Hibbert, featuring intimate new performances and interviews with Toots, rare archive from throughout his career and interviews with contemporaries and admirers including Eric Clapton, Keith Richards, Jimmy Cliff, Bonnie Raitt, Willie Nelson, Marcia Griffiths and Paolo Nutini.From his beginnings as a singer in a Jamaican church to the universally-praised, Grammy award-winning artist of today, the film tells the story of one of the true greats of music.Toots was the first to use the word reggae on tape in his 1968 song Do the Reggay and his music has defined, popularised and refined it across six decades, with hit after hit including Pressure Drop, Sweet and Dandy, Monkey Man, Funky Kingston, Bam Bam, True Love Is Hard To Find and Reggae Got Soul.
As Island records founder Chris Blackwell says, 'The Maytals were unlike anything else... sensational, raw and dynamic'. Always instantly recognisable is Toots's powerful, soulful voice which seems to speak viscerally to the listener - 'one of the great musical gifts of our time'. His songs are at the same time stories of everyday life in Jamaica and postcards from another world.

WE THE RAGGAMUFFINS

2011-09-19T11:27:00.000-07:00

'FOR MANY people Peckham could be a distant foreign country,' caution the production notes for We the Ragamuffin. 'The area has the reputation for the highest crime rates, the most dilapidated housing and the worst education in the country. According to the media, the milkmen and the postmen refuse to deliver on 'no go estates' like the Gloucester and North Peckham . . . In some ways Peckham is more like the Wild West than a 20th-century city.' A nightclub in this neighbourhood has been selected for the world premiere of the film, which showcases the ragamuffin music (an offshoot of reggae), characters and street fashions of the local community.When we hit the wild frontier at 8.30 on a Saturday night, however, it looks remarkably like any other run-down inner-city High Street. Inside the club, several hundred Peckhamites are sitting in orderly ranks awaiting the screening. There is a momentary glitch when it proves difficult to turn off the lights on the glitterball, which keeps scattering spots across the screen. Finally, it is dimmed and on to the screen flashes another glitterball - the glitterball. The film's opening scene is set in the club we are sitting in, and one is soon aware of a close overlap between the audience and the cast. We the Ragamuffin was shot on a budget of pounds 180,000, using improvised dialogue and local musicians essentially playing themselves.They have turned out in force to see themselves on screen, among them Buckey Ranks, the dreadlocked star of the film, who tonight is resplendent in a velvet and sequinned suit, and enough gold chains and rings to keep Gerald Ratner in prawn sandwiches for the next 20 years. 'Music is unity. Unity is strength. I do hip hop, reggae, house. I'm a reality person,' he purrs. 'We make something from nothing,' says one of the other musicians, Leroy Simmonds, who wears a sharp dog-tooth check suit with a loose, tunic top. 'Ragga is raw, whereas reggae is more arranged, more composed. With ragga, you could make music from one bar. Reggae might have four bars.' Another of the players, Adrian De'Allie, adds: 'It's more hard core, heavy bass. It's power.'For Russell Newell, the 25-year-old writer of the original screenplay, 'it's up- tempo, using the latest electronic drum machines and production sounds. The rhythms are basically African and Jamaican.' The lyrics, he admits, can be on the trigger-happy side. 'Some guys talk as feverishly about guns as they do about God. But in Jamaica 50 per cent of the population is under 20. There's a very strong youth culture, and it's being supplied with enormous amounts of weapons from America. These musicians are reflecting their everyday experience.'Gun culture figures strongly in the film, the story of how two killers invade a club and the local musicians drive them, peacefully, from their manor. The publicity highlights it - 'the incident . . . is unfortunately almost commonplace in London' - but everyone concerned with the film would like to play it down. 'It's true that at big dances fights break out. But we're trying to show that we don't need violence. What we've seen in America, we don't want here,' Leroy Simmonds says. The film hopes to create a more positive image. 'We're going to get good publicity - normally it's adverse,' says Derek Clarke of the production company.We the Ragamuffin, it will come as no revelation, went down a storm in Peckham. Whether it (and the other films in the season) goes down as well with a national audience is vital for Fountain's remit to give airtime to parts of British culture that other programmes don't reach.

When Clarice is hurt in a car accident, the obvious truth that more than just her injuries need immediate attention is exposed. Their odds of making it worsen as Clarice begins to see a physical therapist, and Dave develops a friendship with Julie and her teenage son Bryson. The acceptance and comfort he finds in them stirs his longing for a family and a passionate partner. As temptation tugs at Dave and Clarice pulls farther away, they must confront whether their vows are or are not easily broken.

TRIBE CALLED QUEST BEATS RHYMES AND LIFE

2011-09-17T04:07:00.000-07:00

The filmh focuses on the lives of A Tribe Called Quest's members some 25 years after they first thrillingly appeared on the New York City underground rap radar, wowing audiences with their combination of inventive sampling, conscious lyricism and Afrocentric aesthetics.Promoted as the first-ever documentary to focus on a hip-hop group, the film is very much an insider's look at Tribe's surprisingly tense behind-the-scenes, in-group dynamics. It's an intense watch as members Q-Tip, Phife Dawg, Ali Shaheed Muhammed and Jarobi White openly discuss the sentiments of jealousy and burden that have fueled the band's on-again-off-again status since the late '90s.But it's not just the group's perspective that is shared: Throughout the documentary, Rapaport intersperses his footage of Tribe's performances, rehearsals and arguments with commentary from other influential hip-hop icons such as Questlove, The Beastie Boys, MC Lyte, Pharrell Williams and others, all of whom explain, defend and sometimes outright drool about Tribe's place atop the hip-hop world. It's not all glittery, though; one particularly enlightening scene finds Tribe's contemporaries in De La Soul openly hoping for the group's demise so that they won't be forced to watch their in-fighting any longer. Indeed: Beats, Rhymes & Life is an honest, insightful look into the history, present and possible future of one of hip-hop's greatest group of provocateurs.

BEYONCE AT GLASTONBURY 2011

2011-08-28T00:52:00.000-07:00

Beyonce brought the sunshine to Glastonbury. Somehow the very idea of the urban pop queen strutting her stuff in mud-spattered wellies and pac-a-mac seems wrong, illustrating the disparity between her glamorous image and the down and dirty dairy farm festivities. But the weather proved obliging, drying the gloopy surface just in time for Beyonce and her dancers to take to the Pyramid stage on Sunday in improbably high heels. When her husband Jay Z played Glastonbury, there were questions about whether hip hop fitted the festival’s hippy spirit, but Beyonce has a band to match the best, a ripe horn section and a voice capable of pyrotechnical twist and turns to match any lead guitar solo. A great, sassy frontwoman who knows how to lead a call and response, she ended the festival with a real party spirit. “I always wanted to be a rock star!” she yelled.

AFRICA UNITED

2011-06-11T00:27:00.000-07:00

The extraordinary story of three Rwandan kids who walk 3000 miles to the Soccer World Cup in South Africa. Using a sack load of ingenuity and sass (and a World Cup wall chart for a map), our pint-sized protagonists set off through the endless horizons of Africa in pursuit of an unlikely dream. And as they walk they gather a tribe - a ragamuffin team - of broken and brilliant characters who help them negotiate a way through a series of glorious, dangerous, hilarious and often bizarre situations. Through these kids, we will encounter an Africa few people ever get to see; experience the hard reality of an epic walk through seven countries; as well as the joy, laughter and hope - 'the ubuntu' - that comes from making an incredible journey together

OLD GREY WISTLE TEST

2011-06-01T10:09:00.000-07:00

The Old Grey Whistle Test was an influential BBC2 television music show that ran from 1971 to 1987. It took over the BBC2 late night slot from "Disco Two", which had been running since January 1970, while continuing to feature non-chart music. It was devised by BBC producer Rowan Ayers. According to presenter Bob Harris, the programme derived its name from... a 'tin pan alley' phrase from years ago. When they got the first pressing of a record they would play it to people they called the old greys [doormen in grey suits]. The ones they could remember and could whistle having heard it just once or twice had passed the old grey whistle test.

Live performance specially recorded for Whistle Test from the Reggae Concert at the Edinburgh Festival in 1973, featuring the Cimarons, Winston Groovy, Dennis Alcapone, the Marvels, Nicky Thomas and the Pioneers.

When Lorenzo comes for the shoes later, he is arrested. Kevin refuses to cover for Lorenzo, but is fired anyway. On a whim, Kevin plays numbers he found in a fortune cookie in the $370 million lottery jackpot at Junior's (T-Pain) convenience store, despite the fact he does not believe in the lottery.Kevin does not see the lottery announced until the next day, as he is preoccupied with losing his job and being labeled a snitch by the rest of the neighborhood. When Kevin discovers the winning ticket, he swears his grandmother to secrecy. He and Benny go to the lottery office, but finds it is closed until after the Fourth of July weekend. Meanwhile, his grandmother spills the secret to the neighborhood gossip, Semaj (James spelled backwards- Charlie Murphy), and Kevin returns home to find the entire neighborhood waiting in his living room.Chased by his neighbors into hiding, Kevin wants to tell them the ticket is a fake, but changes his mind at the last second when he sees the respect he has regained. Much to Stacie's chagrin, local hottie Nikki Swayze (Teairra Marí) who before showed no interest in Kevin, asks him out. Kevin is still broke until he can cash the ticket, so he goes to see local mobster Sweet Tea (Keith David) who gives him a $100,000 loan and the services of a driver/bodyguard, Jimmy (Terry Crews). Kevin and his friends burn through the money in one day of shopping. His date with Nikki ends in the revelation that she is only trying to get pregnant by him after she refuses to have sex with a condom.On his way home, Kevin speaks with Mr. Washington (Ice Cube), a reclusive ex-boxer who tells him how the neighborhood killed his career when he was robbed after he got some money. At church the next day, the pastor's (Mike Epps) service, a thinly veiled plea for part of Kevin's winnings, is interrupted by Lorenzo. Kevin escapes after being chased by Lorenzo, although Jimmy is beaten up. Later on the roof Benny offers to hold on to the ticket, but Kevin misinterprets this as another person trying to get his money and the two fight. Kevin goes to Stacie's house. After he realizes he needs to use the money to change people's lives, the two kiss and almost have sex, but are interrupted by her mother. Chased out of the bedroom window, Kevin tells Stacie that he loves her and they kiss again and Kevin gets down from Stacie's window, then Kevin is ambushed by Lorenzo and the ticket is stolen. Without having signed the ticket, Kevin has no proof he purchased it.Kevin is found unconscious by Mr. Washington, who tells him the way out of his mess is the same way he got into it. Kevin and Benny reunite and then Benny, Stacie, and a furious Kevin go looking for the Lorenzo. Meanwhile, Sweet Tea arrives and Kevin learns that Sweet Tea will kill him if he cannot repay the money. Realizing that his predicament was caused after Semaj told everyone he had the ticket, Kevin prints out a new ticket and tells Semaj he tricked Lorenzo by carrying a fake. A furious Lorenzo comes looking for Kevin, but is interrupted by Sweet Tea, who gut-checks him and chucks him into a table, but is knocked out after Lorenzo grabs him by the testicles.
