Filthy Flarn Filth - coming soon!

In the next few months I'm thinking about doing an ABU! Podcast with the theme of filth.
Yep. Dirty. Rude. Nasty. Too $hort. Kool Keith. Andrew Dice Clay.  The sort of thing that might get us kicked off the air.

ABU! Disco Scratch Radio Takeover Show 2 - DOWNLOAD

Thanks to everyone who managed to listen live on Sensei FM last night. Remember if you want the full experience then get in the chatroom between 9 and 11pm as the banter there is truly unique and adds to the flavour.

For your downloading pleasure is last night's show. Two hours of fun.

ABU! Disco Scratch Radio Takeover Show 2 - Thursday

Don't forget it's the last Thursday of the month this week and you know what that means......


9pm, www.sensei.fm.

Official Ageing B-Boys Unite! T-Shirts - Coming Soon

Some of you may remember that at the Christmas 3 The Hard Way Jam I rocked up wearing a special ABU! shirt.
This was a unique one-off that I had printed especially for the occasion. Since then I've had a bit of interest in them and am now getting the wheels rolling on getting some more done in an official capacity.

For now I just want to see how many people are interested so if you are then leave a comment or send a mail to be at ageingbboysuniteATyahooDOTcom. And state which size you're interested in.

Remember this isn't a binding contract or anything! I'm just gauging interest.

The End Is Near

I was saddened to hear this week that a fellow Blogger may be ending his site due to outside forces - primarily to the muthaf@%$ing DMCA blog police.

I'm talking about SCENES who currently runs The Underground Strikes Back.

Sadly, it looks like it will be no more by the end of the month and there is a great selection of stuff available for download. However you've got to get there quick or else it goes with the site.

While you're there, please take a few moments to leave a comment and give thanks as Phil has been providing quality content for over 4 years now.

I've certainly bagged a few goodies over time and caught some rare vids and mags so for that I say a massive thanks to Scenes.

Also, it was this very same guy who way back in the early 90's designed a couple of front covers for my hip hop mag, Juice. Top man.

No Disco Scratch Tonight (10th)

Sadly there is NO Disco Scratch show on Sensei FM tonight.
Waxer apologises and wishes to stress that normal service WILL be resumed next week.

Don't forget  ABU! takeover the show on the 24th. That's 2 weeks' time, people!

High Street Hip Hop

I feel compelled to post this.

LG aka Style Warrior head-honcho put up a rather brilliant question masquerading as a status on his Facebook page recently.

Read the entries so far and add to them in the comments as you please. I know this sort of thing is right up the Fat Lace Mag crew's street so get in quick before they're all over it like white on rice.

N.b. You've only got until this Sunday (6th Feb) to pre-order the limited edition Hijack tee from Style Warrior for £20 (inc. p&p).

DJ Kool Herc Sick

This news item was just posted on the ABU! Facebook Group Page by my man, DJ Cutloose.

Details are sketchy but the father of hip hop, Kool Herc is very sick and is currently in hospital.
Being that the US medical system is different to the NHS here in the UK, he is badly in need of funds as cannot afford hospital insurance.

This is bad.

The FATHER of hip hop needs money.
The man who pioneered the music which we all love and live is in such a bad financial state that he may die over something as trivial as this.

This man stood and watched as those he had schooled, those who had gone to his jams at 1520 Sedgwick Ave, The Bronx took his teachings and pulled themselves up the ladder gaining worldwide fame and never looking back.

It makes me very angry that even the birthplace of hip hop could not even be saved by......well, I'm not even going to name anyone but you all know who.
Artists, managers in the hip hop industry, those with designer clothing labels, record labels...

Fuck it. I'm talking about Russell Simmons, Damon Dash, Master P, P Diddy, Jay-Z, Kanye, 50 Cent, Eminem.....the list goes on.
Jeeez, Puffy and Jay-Z between them are worth a couple of mil short of $100 million dollars!

This is serious business and if not one of these big players can step up and help the man then I really don't know what to say.


EDIT.
1520 Sedgwick Ave HAS been saved by a $5 Million dollar loan!
Big shout to my homie, Jaz for this wonderful news.

ABU! Disco Scratch Radio Takeover Show

Look at me being all colonial this year. Still in the first month and I've gone guns blazing into two radio stations twisting metaphorical arms up people's backs and taking over the airwaves.

The second one is this Thursday on Sensei FM at 9pm which as you will know is Waxer's Disco Scratch radio show.
From this Thursday and every subsequent last Thursday of the month you will hear my golden vocals wafting over the internets on the reg-reg. Whether that's a good thing or not remains to be seen. Or rather heard.

There's some real stonkers in this month's show and I can guarantee that there'll be something for everything including some Ice T, Run DMC, some UK stuff and a blinding, little-heard James Brown break which will simply make you do a little dance in your living room.

All this and the usual shizzle makes for a couple of hours of b-boy ecstasy.

Lock in at 9pm this Thursday to www.sensei.fm and don't forget to jump into the chatroom.

The show will be available for download shortly after but try to get the first hit on Thursday if you can.
