MY SHOWS OF 2009

Yep, its end of the year list time once again. I'll drop my favourite tunes of the year in a bit but for now these are my favourite shows of 2009 (and luckily for me i was involved in most of them)

NINE HIGH ALBUM LAUNCH @ MISS LIBERTINE

May as well start with our own bloody show huh? The culmination of lots of hard work and round the world trips finally saw our album released earlier in the year. Byron and Loco flew over to join me and Scotty for a couple months to promo it which ended with our show at Miss Libs which was FUCKING AMAZING!!! Couldnt have asked for a better response really, had a ball!

WOBBLE 2ND BIRTHDAY @ NIGHT OWL

Not many nights last two years, especially when they pack them in month in month out like Wobble do. Every month me and Scotty alongside AC23 have a wicked time, but the birthday event really took the cake. Never seen it going off like it did that night! Big up to Cubist, Derrick and AC23!

STARKEY @ HEAVY INNIT!!, LAUNDRY

Unfortunately The Laundry has now shut its doors but this show in particular stood out for me as one of the best shows of 2009 and a highlight of a succesful year for Heavy Innit!! Selection was big, no chinstroking, lots of hype and a mad crowd. Hold tight Badddums and Affiks for continually killing it with the shows!

SKEPTA AND BLESS BEATS @ LAUNDRY

Well the Wiley show didnt happen, not that we didnt try our hardest, but situations just got out of our control. Nevertheless, we managed at the very last minute (around 6pm on the night of the show) to secure a new venue, got Skeppy and Bless down for it and had a killer. To be honest it was probably better than if the show had gone ahead in its original form as we just took it old school, riddims, bars and reloads.

M.O.P @ THE ESPY

Not much i'm gonna say on this one other than this was possibly the best and most fun i've had at a hip hop show! People who know me know i get real bored with most hip hop shows so for me to say that it had to be big!

COTTI + TES LA ROCK @ TOO MUCH, NIGHTOWL

The Too Much boys have put in a lot of work this year with some murky shows, but this one stood out for as their number one for the year. Alongside Heartical Hi Fi Cotti and Tes La Rock ripped the nightowl apart! Cottis selection was so on point, cant wait to see him here again. Big up to Fooishbar and Same-o for a wicked one!

There ya have it!
