Freeze Festival 30 October feat Sway

Freeze Festival is a 2 day long Snowboarding music event, with Sway performing alongside Cypress Hill and a bunch of acts irrelevant to this site, but it was Konvicts latest signing who got the exposure today, shouts to Blatantly Blunt's in house snapper Melvs behind the lens. It was a good job we went on the Saturday as the event was rained off on the Sunday like a stereotypical Wimbledon Final. Unlucky for my boy Ben K who was invited down to ride that day, and despite having never snowboarded in my life, that slope in the first pic below seems to tick the right boxes.

Blatantly Blunt Radio Show (ep 1) on AxeFM.co.uk

Blatantly Blunt went live last night on legendary internet grime station Axe Fm for a first night that was unmissable. We were lucky enough to get DJ Madnice on the decks and MC's Luca Brazi (hip hop) and Untitled MC (grime); and they both smashed it. Big shouts to Raw at Axe.

Fake internet rumour of the year: Wiley's Dead.

So I heard about this news story happening and if they hadn't given them selves away using their own domain name and didn't use Thames Valley Police statement for a Hackney based murder (lol), this could've been somewhat more believeable, but luckily.... it ain't.
Here's the article (click here for the link):

British Rapper Wiley stabbed to death

Wiley stabbed to death after an argument.

Richard Kylea Cowie also known as wiley a grime mc who recently got to number two in the chart was stabbed to death only hours ago.

Officers were called to Hackney at about 2200 GMT after reports of a disturbance.

They found 29-year-old Richard Cowie in an alleyway behind Cheshire Road. He had been stabbed several times. Police believe that an argument had taken place as shouting was heard by witnesses.

Cowie, from Bow, was taken to Hospital where he later died. Police are appealling for witnesses to come forward.

Detective Aaron Johnson said:

"We have now put high visibility patrols in place, including community contact points and we have set up confidential telephone lines.

"We will be working throughout the night with community leaders to ensure that people in the area still feel safe, and that the killers are caught"

Anyone with any information on Cowies murder is asked to call police or Crimestoppers.

BBC will keep you updated on this as more information becomes available.
