New Logo

I've had a bit of a creative attack this afternoon and redesigned the ABU! logo.


Big, big shout to FUZE as those are his own Shelltoes you can see.
And no, those aren't my slippers. They're the wrong colour for a start ;0)

My Side-Project Website

To the many fans of Ageing B-Boys Unite! This is a gentle, metaphorical poke in the ribs for you to visit my new website over at www.sonicity.co.uk

Sonicity is my recording name and this is where you'll find a bunch of my songs. From b-boy beats to audio soundscapes and much more in between.

Don't worry, the blog is far from over. I am busy with college work at present and by the beginning of summer I shall be back with a vengeance. Until then my input will be rather lame in comparison to the strength of previous months.
Fear not though, as if you want to drop me a line with suggestions, gifts, cash or just a big old rant then email me: benhammy@yahoo.co.uk.

But have a look at the website, too. Any feedback would be welcome. www.sonicity.co.uk

How To Scratch With Jazzy Jay & Afrika Bambaataa

Check this out. This is a rare piece of footage from some 1980's kids show where Jazzy Jay & Afrika Bambaataa show the audience what scratching is all about.
Hmmmmm, and doesn't that bloke in the audience who asks a question about 'Cookie Puss' look familiar?

Chilly B from Newcleus RIP / Guru from Gang Starr in coma

From Cozmo-D's Facebook..

"Newcleus co-founder, writer, rapper, singer, keyboardist and bass player Chilly B passed away yesterday due to complications from a massive stroke that he suffered days ago. The stroke had left him brain dead and in a coma. Today the decision was made to remove him from life support and he passed on not long after. RIP Chilly B, I'm gonna miss you man... -B"

And this news just breaking. Legendary rapper Guru, best known as a member of the rap duo Gangstarr, reportedly suffered a heart attack over the weekend and is currently in critical condition.

According to HipHopWired.com, the 43-year-old rapper (real name Keith Elam) went into cardiac arrest sometime this weekend, and has since slipped into a coma.

 Bad times.
