FloorFiller Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 Loving the idea of Boy Better Know doing it. Would obviously be at Radiohead but I think they'd nail it. Has a hip-hop act ever headlined Other before? Can't think of any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While we're on hip-hop acts, I know most of us are now thinking they'll play on the Pyramid but is there any chance of A Tribe Called Quest headlining Other? I don't see it personally but just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Gimme the Love is the most hip-hop Bugg song you've heard then just wait until you hear Ain't No Rhyme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnomicide Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 Speaking as an official forum old git, I like to think that for an act to headline The Other, I should have at least heard of them. I may not like them of know any songs by them but it means they're out there in Grandad Joe Public's conscience. I've never heard of Boy Better Know so I'm either REALLY past it ot they/he/she's not big enough. I suspect I know which way this is going to go.

Boy Better Know is the group that Skepta belongs to (I assume you've heard of him - won the Mercury Prize) plus a few of his fellow grime artists who are all on the up and up.

Ah, now I've heard of him, did well on The Pyramid from what I recall. So he's grime's version of 1970s Rod Stewart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hated it but that's the point surely. I'm nearly 50, I should hate stuff the youth are into. Plus it pissed off a load of Daily Mail readers so that's fine by me.

I know it's not exactly stiff competition, but it's easily the best thing that's ever happened at the Brits. Pretty much one of the best things Kanye's ever done as well.

I'm believing the Wiley (BBK) headlining rumours so based on that info I have to believe the Justice stuff (obviously it'll all be wrong) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
