i just don't really see the point in females in the first place, there's no room for them in dubstep to be honest, let alone the home or the workplace.

what we really need is a larger men to bears ratio, i feel more bears at the dances would really bring fresh attitudes to the sound, there would be no halfstep (the beats would all be considerably more terrorcore-esque), and the wobbles would only occur in the hihats.

lol but seriously why do so many girls go to house clubs but not other types?

Is it just exposure? Or is funky house just plain sexier? Dubstep is a bit daunting at a first glance.

to get more bears involved maybe what's needed is some kind of site where mixes of ursine music can be downloaded for free. but what to call it, hmmm....

urine music? sounds interesting. i imagine a drum kit type set up consisting of urinary receptacles made from lots of different materials that produce different timbres and tones. i go back to my plans.

The only thing Chantelle Fiddy's ever done is suck Plan B's little cock... How's that a contribution to Grime or Dubstep, or even Plan B?

I swear her blog use to be "World of Grime" now she's changed it to "World of Whatever", jumped slightly onto the dubstep bandwagon and pretty much completely abandoned Grime.

I played Straight Outta bethnal - that was a laugh. heard there was some trouble in there and thats why it got locked off.

She's done alot for UK urban music in general mark my words.

She helped Hotflush alot in the early days - got me onto Rinse for starters.

Think its a bit unfair criticizing her - she's certainly done alot more than other journalists out there.

That's the most ignorant statement I've seen on here in a while. Well, a week or so, given recent happenings. But seriously, that's asinine. Fix up.

It's not ignorant. About 80% of her blog is Plan B. But fuck it. She doesn't deserve this amount of attention. She's already hijacked Dubstep to write shitty articles for shitty free 'newspapers'.

Big up Hattie Collins and Sarah Love way before bigging up Fiddy. And Lady Sovereign. And Carol Thatcher.

Word to ya mum.

Granted I've never met her but I dont think she's whiney or spoilt from what I've seen. She is however hitting number one on TRL charts in the states. That's more than any Spice Girls ever done outside of the UK.

Well, I'm not going to derail this thread but let's just say that folks stateside aren't exactly happy with her performer's code of ethics... or lack thereof.

And if the Spice Girls had Def Jam as their parent machine perhaps they would have charted on that piece of shit show as well :wink:
