Stargate and Jay-Z?

I remember when Stargate first left Europe for America. I was surprised. Since they've been over there though the hits haven't stopped. For those of you that don't know, Stargate are responsible for a lot of Atomic Kitten, Blue, Lemar, Mis-Teeq, S Club 7, Cleopatra and 5ive hits. Oh yes. Quality stuff I'm sure you'll agree. They're now responsible for hits by Ne Yo, Rihanna, Beyonce, Jessica Simpson, Nas, Chris Brown, Leona Lewis, Pussy Cat Dolls, Lindsay Lohan and Usher...a jump in quality? Perhaps not. But finance? Certainly. Well today they've announced a new label deal with Jay-Z called StarRoc. I assume this will be a deal through Live Nation? I don't know. What I do know is that I can probably live my entire life without a Stargate/ Jay-Z collaboration. I've been wrong before though.

Hello Manchester!

Usher called out Manchester on stage in Kent. I feel for you Usher, I did that one time, it was slightly different though, I was in Leicester and there were some people from Mancester in the front row so I shouted out my Manchester crew, I got a boo, I'm not going to lie. It was all in jest though.

I got no boos in Hartlepool. I did a weird set, Jack got sick in the morning so I had to use a stand-in live set-up which consisted of Tego DJ'ing (old school) and Ben Official hyping and doing backing vocals, we ran through the set, with 'Boyspot' getting a wheel up (it was about to go crazy in there), I'll try and get that live footage up on the Youtube this week. Shout outs to Hartlepool though, we had fun, we had a Megadrive backstage but the pads didn't work so well, I wanted to play Streets of Rage. Example killed though, he wanted me to go up for 'Turn Me Up' but I was so fucked from jumping around I didn't have the energy and I probably would have flopped.
