Sod Cherie Blair and let the Daily Mail impart some of its vast musical knowledge upon you this morning... Having uncovered that Mike Skinner of the Streets is apparently (and deservedly) going to trounce Robbie Williams at the utterly meaningless Brit Awards the Mail invokes the Eminem comparisons, because it's down with the kids, and comes up with this little gem:
"He [Mike Skinner] is very much in the mould of Eminem, the American who has made a name for himself as the world's first credible white rapper."
mmmmmmmm... Can anyone possible think of credible white rappers who hit the scene before 1998 *cough* beastie boys *cough*. Answers on a postcard.

What about the guy out of Cypress Hill. I'm sure there is one nearly white one...
What about Everlast?
Does he count as rap?

Another white rapper before 1998 is Kid Rock. He has sort of changed his genre a bit but the first albumn 'Grits Sandwiches for Breakfast Y'all' was total Rap. Think it was released in 1992
Yeh The Daily Mail should go back to its "great" new stories about the Royal family and politics.
And to think I used to like the paper. It's too dull now.
Why can't someone make the ultimate paper which has the intellectual stories of The Times and Guardians but the size of the Mail. The Times and Guardian are good but I cannot handle their size. Please how can you read it without pulling the whole thing apart and then folding the pieces of paper up.

Mike Skinner has invented a new genre.
It's the "Having a chat with some music in the background" genre.
And it's bloody brilliant.

The daily mail seem to forget Vanilla Ice
His first album sold well then the follow up didn't
(LOL)
and then there was Snow with the chart hit Informer
and the Beastie Boys who have more credability than the previous 2 and then some :)
Anyway I thought the mail hated eminem, and now they call him the first credible white rapper.

What about Vanilla Ice? Heh.
I meant to see him at Reading this year, but he was playing the same time as something else. So I didn't.
After typing that, I realise what an utterly pointless thing it is to say.
Oh well.

They are fantastic live. Went with two mates in October to a small club in London, no idea how Kyle got the tickets but damn. Well... get yourself along to one Ali.
