Calling each other out in their songs.. Now don't tell me that they don't cos it's a fact old son.. Even back in the day rap was all about guns, drugs and money.... Was it not.. Old Son No, dig up, stupid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Son I'm sure loads of folk will be inspired to commit stabbings when they see Stormzy rapping on stage with a big 'WATERAID' and 'GREENPEACE' banner underneath him, really incites the anger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerqueen Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 Just now, Gucci Piggy said: Well yeah but you said no one with one album should be headlining. It's also a pretty safe bet that the Glasto bookers will have heard at least bits of his new album to aid their decision making. But still only one album so far. Still think it's too early to headline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to have a bit more clout to do so. But while Stormzy's not my cup of tea, I don't mind. I'll be somewhere else. Yea that's what I would do.. No worries... It's the same as if Pearl jam played and you didn't like them you would be somewhere else.. I'm not hear saying you must like Pearl jam I've tried that on here for years and got nowhere but I can and will say that I think there could be a better headline act than Stormzy..

I don't really understand. He'll have a second album by the time he headlines. Why's that any different to if he already had his second album out now? Plenty of acts have headlined with two albums and it's a pretty sure bet that some of them will have been booked before the album was released.

Old Son Well I'm not big into trying to put music in to boxes but Stormzy is generally categorised as Grime whereas the music which some people are associating with the stabbings in London is categorised as Drill. Personally I'm of the opinion that music is a reflection of life rather than a cause. If people are singing about drugs, knives or whatever it's because those things have influenced their music, in the same way that Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds or White Rabbit were songs influenced by LSD not promotional adverts for LSD. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh I'm always quite relieved when the headliner is someone I don't want to see as I don't really want to go to the Pyramid for the headliner if I can help it!

I don't think the Eavis' aren't happy about it but I do feel maybe a lack in options for this year over 2020 by the sounds of it have maybe meant the best of the rest. On the stance of Pearl Jam though, they just won't ever get booked for Glastonbury, the appeal isn't wide enough to non fans. I admit I don't know anymore songs by title of either of them to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because at the moment he only has one album to be judged on. The second one might be crap. So as of now only one. Even if the bookers have heard bits of the second one (and I've no idea if they have) it's risky because the second album may bomb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woffy Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 @guypjfreak old son, I completely get you might not like ‘contemporary’ or ‘mainstream’ stuff like Stormzy. But if that’s the case why do you & yer crew camp out on that first row of tents at the back of the Pyramid Stage Field? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerqueen Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 Sorry, still expect a headliner to have a bit more than one album and one due out that "won't" bomb. But don't really care as there will be plenty of other places for me to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
