Notting Hill 2008...

Hey friends!

Hope this post finds you well...I am actually not feeling too good myself as I have caught this cold that I thought I had dodged... but hey nothing a good cup of honey, Lemon & ginger can't cure ;-)...So apologies for the slight air I've been giving you on this here blog for the past few days!!

Anyway, I have a treat to share with you today, and something that I really wanna raise my voice about...

I first saw and fell in love with this guy at Notting Hill Carnival in 2008 where he was performing...I was amazed at his music and the way it seemed so sincere in a genre that is often so much about puttin' up this prideful persona... Since those days in the summer of 2008 I've got to know this man's music as well as his character more deeply, and have been so inspired with how the two have been fluid and connected... How his music and his life reflect one another, and work together to create something so special... sincere... and refreshing, especially in a genre like Grime.

For those of you who don't know him, Sammy G is well worth an afternoon (or more!) of listening to. His album is available from all good major online retailers and here's the link to purchase it .

I should probably mention that I am going to be marrying this man next year :-) But please do not think that any of my thoughts on his music are bias... go check it out for yourself people!... Let me know your thoughts!

So let me Introduce you to Sammy G... he also gave Abimaro & The Free a much appreciated shout out in this here video, so you might see my little head popping up somewhere! Big up to Gospel Cypher for all their hard work...check out their youtube channel... It's ridiculous!!

Enjoy...
