Ok, so since re-hosting the Original Tim Westwood Soundboard, we’ve been on a bit of a Westwood ting!
DJB found every westwood album ever, hosted on his very own soundcloud (what a legend!) so we have started from the top and are working our way through every single Tim Westwood album since 2001.
Heavy hit, after heavy hit.
Ok, so a good few years ago me and some friends started watching Rap Battles on YouTube, we’d laugh at the likes of Dirt Bag Dan making jokes and spitting bars to his opponent… But after a while the gun bars and American references got a little too much and we all kinda lost interest.
A few months ago, Liam (friend and business partner) linked me to a new rap battle that he said i’d like, it was Blizzard vs Mark Grist – Student/Teacher Battle from Dont Flop Entertainment, and after watching it, laughing my ass off for 17 minutes, i was once again hooked!
After watching a few other battles i decided that i needed to really swat up as there were too many “in jokes” and references to old battles and i wasn’t sure what some people were referring to in some of the rounds.
So i went back to the very first Dont Flop-esq Battle, which is hosted on Don’t Flop Founder, Eurgh’s own YouTube account – EurghTube. I then proceeded to watch every battle on EurghTube, until i’d seen them all. Then, rather than watch every single video on the actual Dont Flop channel i singled out certain MC’s, searched for them (within the Dont Flop channel of course) and then watched them from debut right through to the newer stuff.
I find the level of intellect and preparation from some of the battlers is just outstanding, people such as Tenchoo and Lego make me actual LOL at times, and then people like Micky Worthless and Lunar C both got bars, but their stage presence and jokes add an element of humor to Dont Flop that really makes it stand out as one of the most entertaining things on YouTube right now.
Being the type of guy i am, i want to get involved in some way, not sure how as they have most things locked down, but i extend this offer to the Dont Flop team, if you need help with anything web-related then im your man – that includes help with the Blog too!
Im off to mow my lawn, sit in the sun, and probably watch more rap battles!
Roughly 3 months ago, I contacted a Gent who owned a domain name I wanted to use as a bargaining chip for a DIFFERENT domain name – but anyway….
He is one of these lucky people who was in the right place at the right time, and has amassed a collection of domain names like no other. I have no idea of the amount (to be honest I don’t think he has) but its in the tens of thousands!
Anyway to cut a long story short, we are now working with him on a few projects one being the UK Top 40 Singles and Albums Chart website. The reason this was the first domain we chose, was that a friend of ours had a similar site, so I knew the code was available already!
My mate is working on it with us now too, and he has made the code 100x better – and he has forwarded traffic form his old site the new one!
Adam is finishing the design today – and later today is the proper launch date.
I First saw Prof Green when he performed before Sway and the Streets a few years ago @ Rock City. He was good – real good! And after he was on stage he was walkin’ round selling his MixTape and he came over and we slapped hands – it was awesome. I met Gez Ensign for the first time at that event too so it was very memorable for me.
Anyway Professor Green is well on his way to becoming a household name now – and this track with hopefully do what Pass Out did for Tinie Tempah.
Anyway – we didn’t put these lyrics together ourselves, the credit is at the bottom of the post.
Lyrics
(Hello?)
Hello babe, what’s happening, you cool?
(Ah yeah you alright? What’s happening?)
Yeah I’m good, what’s goin’ on?
(Yeah, nothing er chillin’)
Alright, what you up to later?
(Oh yeah about that, um, dya know what I’m really busy can I call you back?)
This ain’t so stereotypical man, not for a stereotypical man, It should be me that wants to get rid of you instead it’s you that don’t give a damn (what?) It was meant to be a one night ‘ting, nothing more than a little one night fling, now when I’m in need you’re the one I ring I (I need you tonight)
But she’s playing hard to get, brunette with such class she’s hard to forget, see at first I wasn’t after her heart but I couldn’t stop thinking about her after I left. I’m beginning to lose my cool, it appears in love I have fallen (whoops!) I’m ready to put my all in and all she does is ignore my calls!
CHORUS:
She’s everything I want, but all that I don’t need
How can she be so hot, yet be so cold to me
How can it be so wrong, and yet it feels so right
I wish I never, but I need you tonight!
This lady is driving me crazy, she blows hot and cold like the AC. I just can’t figure her out next time I’m with her I’m pinning her down (Oi) I’m gonna’ find out if she’s on it or not (not, not) ‘cos all of this shit is long (long, long) See I front like I’m okay but I’m not, I’m being played at my own game and it’s long (long blud). I ain’t no ediot, I’m pro I’m no intermediate so next time she phones me I ain’t even gonna pick up the phone to speak in it (ring) nope, swear down, (ring) wait a minute, that’s her now..
(hello?)
(I really wanna’ see you today)

(Alright, just give me a time and a place and i’m there)
CHORUS:
She’s everything I want, but all that I don’t need
How can she be so hot, yet be so cold to me
How can it be so wrong, and yet it feels so right
I wish I never, but I need you tonight!

(I need you tonight)
CHORUS
She’s everything I want, but all that I don’t need
(I am…in a bad place)
How can she be so hot, yet be so cold to me (this stuff don’t happen to me, I’m me!)
How can it be so wrong, and yet it feels so right
I wish I never, but I need you tonight!
(Swear down, It’s just a song, in real life this would never happen to me, I am a pimp, women chase me, i do not chase women)
I need you, I need you
(I swear down)
I need you, I need you tonight…
