Who's got Sky?

OK, Virgin Media, Homechoice, BT Vision ........ (who remember's ONDigital? - big in the 00's)

Whatever you've got, you've got MTVONE. Even if you've got Freeview, you've got that realityTV infested channel.

Pissed innit?

Shakka again on another point of the day. Just recently came off Kojo's blog on Youtube: On it, he was talkin' bout UK artists not gettin enough love, and how we should show appreciation for the POTENTIALS.

Made me think bout a lotta times that I'm actually findin' so many things wrong wit some o the artists who come out in the UK, and fail to embrace the good sides of their music, image, lyrics etc.

Then, after laughin' my arse off @ one of Kojo's skits, I stopped and thought, when was the last time I laughed so much at stand-up comedy, or just FUNNY JOKES?

This is why I asked bout MTVONE, Base, etc. If you take a look at it, there is some bullshit TV out there on a weekday night on MTV Base - I'M NOT DISSIN' NONE O THE MUSIC!!!!! I'm talkin bout the constant barrage of reality TV shows (that look more bait an' orchestrated danna disney flick). Sorry, but am I the only one who wants to see more "Spanking New Music", and less "I Love New York"?

Once again, it really is no disrespeck to the producers, editors and peeps @ MTV, I can understand the politics, revenue's, Reh-Teh-Teh.

But when we think bout it, THE UK (not jus London) is blessed with what we've got here.

Kojo the Stand Up comedian, has been constant to the point where his own comedy night has been consistent for bout 5 years - check his page - nuff videos. He's now doin stuff in New York.

N-Dubz have had 40 top hits on the UK singles chart - ........ need I say more?

As written in Incisive's latest blog (.:No more Classics) - downloadin has affected the way we listen to music. Not gonna front. It's now a fact.

But I think many people I speak to, or even listener's in general are quick to play the "back-in-the-day-music-was-love" card, and choose not to search. Or even choose not to listen.
