[NEW MUSIC] Three Kings High

Tracks by ThreeKingsHigh
Born in the cultural melting pot that is Bristol, Three Kings High consists of band members from as North and as South as England goes and they’re influenced by about as many genres as there are cities in-between.

Three Kings High is the outcome.

Rooted in Hip Hop but combining uplifting, soulful, indie melodies with beats as likely to have been inspired by drum ‘n bass as old funk records. Three Kings High deliver an uncompromised portrayal of living and working in England and write songs with a message that will stay on repeat in your head for days.

Live, Vee-Kay produces a 6 piece band fronted by Samuel Otis and Joe Chattabox who sing and rap delivering an energetic stage show that leaves an impact on indie to Hip Hop crowds alike.

Genre	Indie/Soul/Hip Hop/Pop
Members	Vocals: Joe Eden Vocals/Guitar: Samuel Otis Vocals: Amy West Producer/Engineer/MPC/Keys: Vee Kay Drums: Luke Wookash Bass: Rowan Ensoll Additional Keys: Toby

[DON'T FLOP] The North-East Competitors

As some of you may be aware, one of our Authors, SUUS, takes part in the Don't Flop Battles. Well, It seems there are a few other rappers from the North-East taking part, and the scene is growing. Below, I've picked a few of the best... First up, PROFANITY, the winner of the SPEAKEASY battles wayyyy back, he was highly rated then. Check out this recent battle from Scotland.

Next, we have an ALL GEORDIE battle featuring SUUS, and a rapper called CLICK.

Something novel from DEFFINITION. He battle's himself. Yes, that's right. In a mirror. And it works suprisingly well, deffinately worth a watch.

Last, but by no means at all, this last battle. CHRIS LEESE vs SUUS. Unfortunately, SUUS loses, but its VERY close, and our boy goes HARD. A blistering one this.

You can find out more about Don't Flop and follow ALL the battles from the lovely http://dontflop.com/ You can also buy one of these rather smart T-Shirts from the same site...

More info	The BBC will be filming this TONIGHT (wednesday) for a small TV and Radio segment about North-East hiphop. We thought we'd set up a showcase for them, so we can get as many people as possible from the scene involved. Therefore we'll be hosting a "Cypher" in the basement of The Kings Manor Pub TONIGHT from 7pm. Just for those that don't know, this is NOT a battle or an open mic. Anyone wishing to take part in the actual cypher needs to arrive by 7pm to register their name. If you snooze, you lose. Every participant shows the others respect. Writtens are fine, freestyles are encouraged. Please try not to swear in case the footage is broadcast!!! ANYONE WISHING TO TAKE PART IN THE CYPHER MUST REGISTER AT 7PM. There will also be tunes provided by the mighty DJ GIRO and the bar will, of course, be open for drinks. (18+ EVENT) ENTRY IS FREE Come down, get involved, have some banter with everyone else in the scene and, above all, HAVE SOME FUN!!!
