CHECK OUT REMEL LONDON's #RipTheRunwayUK REVIEW EDITED

Over the weekend I was definitely out and about! I managed to be one of the lucky few to make it in to


RIP THE RUNWAY UK!!!


I had previously uploaded a video blog and review about the event but was asked to take it down as they did not agree with my views.

This actually troubled me! To the point that I had a disagreement with the organiser and decided instead of war-ing I would take it down!


However this goes against EVERYTHING I have learnt as a young broadcast journalist. And I had floods of emails, PINGS, tweets, facebook messages and personal calls with friends family and advisers that i shouldnt have given in.







After being CUSSED by my fellow media professionals for BACKING DOWN and seeing several other harsh reviews I have decided to put up an edited version of the vblog with an added introduction.


SO HERE IT IS!!!





LEAVE YOUR COMMENTS AND PLEASE SHARE!!!

IF YOU WOULD LIKE YOUR EVENT, MUSIC, FILM OR HAVE A TOPIC FOR ME TO REVIEW PLEASE EMAIL SUGGESTIONS TO RemelLondon@yahoo.com

Believe it or Not I have always been a wrestling fan!!! Yes... Me Remel London.
I remember the NWO days on TNT late at night, after Cartoon Network switched off, ( on Cable - THE BLACK BOX DAYS).
I remember watching WWF on Saturday mornings on Sky 1, The Rock, Stone Cold steve austin, The Under Taker, Kane, The Big Show, Scottie Too Hottie, Rickishi, China ohhh my gosh those were the days!!! Until one day I think a STUPID BOY at school decided to tell me Wrestling was FAKE and I was crushed!!! Since then I haven't looked back!

I'm sure its been 10 years since I last watched it and enjoyed it! Until Now!
On Sunday 3rd April for some reason the twitter hype brought me back to my love for wrestling as eveeryone watched the live stream of WrestleMania27... wow 27 years of this madness! lol

And I was excited to hear that my homie ACE with his radio double Vis was live in the arena. I couldnt wait to hear about their travels and here it is with some of our wrestling favourites!!!


Hopefully that'll be me one day!

@TINYMANONLINE was voted #RateMePlz track of the week!!! FIND OUT MORE HERE!!!

Tuesday 5th April was the last airing of #RateMePlz on urbanelite Radio.

We may return to the station, however Remel London will most definitely be taking the #RateMePlz brand to new lengths so STAY TUNED FOR THAT!!!


To all of my loyal listeners thank you for tuning in and being apart of a new platform for UK Urban artists and their music!

Look out for updates and the return of #RateMePlz.


On the last #RateMePlz show I was joined by my special guest DJ NaijaBoi. He provided an amazing set of Old skool Garage and grime as a tribute to the UK for my show.

Together we had the joy of HONESTLY rating the many songs that have been sent through to us on the show.


The winner of this week's show and in fact the last #RateMePlz show on urbaneliteradio.com was


TinyMan.

His track entitled T.I.N.Y.M.A.N got a pull up from DJ NAIJA BOI before it had even got half way! This made it clear who the #RateMePlz track of the week was going to!


As a recent 'Ones to Watch' artist on my blog and a good friend of mine I was very happy to see the last #RateMePlz track of the week go to him!


He currently has an E.P out which goes by the name of 'Nameless' so please do check that out and find out more about TinyMan by hollering at his twitter!

Erykah Badu threw some FUNK IN MY FACE!!! Check it out HERE!!!



I rubbed shoulders with a legendary sister of Neo-soul was in London this week!
Last night I had the pleasure of attending an exclusive set of soul, funk, Jazz, Old skool House and hip hop provided and supplied by DJ Low Down Loretta Brown aka ERYKAH BADU!!!

Organised by Hip hop specialist The Doctor's Orders Erykah Badu was tearing up the dance floor at the intimate bar and club East Village in my favourite hang out Shoreditch.

Now I'm going to be honest here... I had no idea that Erykah Badu was a DJ and I was shocked!!! Not because she's a DJ, not because she's a FEMALE DJ.... but because this is ERYKAH BADU!!!
I was not ready for this. I was expecting to be swaying to slow jamz all night not bopping my head to funk and hip hop!

But this event was definitely an eye-opener and insight into the world of miss Badu.
I think every DJ shares a piece of themselves with us when they jump on the decks and we could definitely hear alot of Erykah Badu's influences in the music she provided and played!


The vibe was amazing and it was wonderful to see such a variation in age, ethinicities and culture come and party with miss Badu.
As you can see below the star knows how to work her way around the mixer and also Serato :-) ( see I know some DJ stuff lol) but I definitely prefer her as a singer over the DJ-ing as there was quite a few clangs and over use of the loop function... but *shrugs* HELLO IT'S ERYKAH BADU... she could have played all the tracks backwards and everyone would have loved her for it!

DEFO HAVE TO GIVE PROPS TO THE DOCTOR'S ORDERS TEAM for puting on a great event ( even though i think she should have sang a lil aswell) The team are also doing what they can to arrange a second date for this exclusive event! So check them out!!!
