Biography

 

Drum ‘n’ bass was some 15 years old by the time Chase & Status dropped its debut album, More Than Alot, in 2008. What set the London duo apart, then and now: its willingness to push beyond the genre’s limits, widening the circle to encompass grime and other forms of bass music along with metal, house, and even pop, stretching its appeal far beyond the boundaries of the underground. Chase (Saul Milton) and Status (Will Kennard) bonded as students in Manchester before kicking off their joint career in 2005, and even today, the albums feel charged with the energy of two roommates going through their record collections together, bonding over shared enthusiasm. With 2019’s RTRN II JUNGLE, the pair paid tribute to their jungle roots, and with 2022’s What Came Before, they delved into the genre’s reggae and hip-hop origins. At the end of the day, what keeps both going isn’t any one style, they told Apple Music, but “just genreless, mad music.” - Spotify

Biography

 

Shawn Mendes once said the best advice he ever got about how to handle preshow jitters came from his then-tourmate Taylor Swift. “Just remember,” Swift said. “Everyone’s here to have fun.” Fun? Yeah, sure. But they were also there to see Mendes perform, share his feelings, bare his soul. “When you’re writing something super-honest and about people you care about and things you’ve been through, the last thing you want to do is relive upsetting experiences,” Mendes told Apple’s Music around the release of his 2018 self-titled album. “But that’s the music that travels and connects with people.” And therein lies the rub. Soulful but soft, wholesome without sounding like he’s hiding something, Mendes is the rare artist who has managed to find audiences in both the teen-pop and adult-contemporary set, blending singer-songwriter conventions with the lighter sides of R&B and dance music, bucking trends in part by ignoring them to begin with. Born in the Toronto suburbs in August 1998 (a Leo—confident and optimistic), Mendes started out by uploading six-second covers of pop songs onto the video-sharing service Vine. Like Justin Bieber on YouTube before him, he navigated the leap from covers to original material, from making content to forging a career, modeling himself on the sound of artists, like John Mayer and Ed Sheeran—superstars whose charm lies, in part, in how un-super they seem. Within a couple of years, he released his first album, Handwritten. Success was huge and immediate. Illuminate arrived in 2016, followed by Shawn Mendes in 2018, marking transitions toward adult themes—anxiety, sexuality—without shedding the brightness or earnestness that made him appealing to begin with. “The hardest thing in the world is to wake up in the morning and be, like, ‘Today I’m me, regardless of how big of a song “Stitches” was,’” Mendes told Apple Music, referring to his 2015 breakthrough single. “The best way to do it is to ignore that and take your step forward in what you think sounds amazing. And that’s kind of all you can do.” - Apple Music

Why is "in your mouth" censored lmaoooo

This edit

We finally have a British artist having a #1 single in 2024

Censored queens, lmao

"Try it, bite it, lick it, spit it" is fine but not "put 'em in your mouth" okay Radio 1

"Try it, bite it, lick it, spit it" is fine but not "put 'em in your mouth" okay Radio 1

It's giving when they censored "I've been drinking more alcohol" from Libianca - People

that edit :lol:

UK is BRAT

Why is "in your mouth" censored lmaoooo

 

I heard the girl so confusing with Lorde version on retail radio in a shop the other day which was so cvnty but also realised the readio edit censors the word "weapon". Like what the serious fook?

 

I always thought the point of radio edits was to remove hard swear words or explicit sexual references that small children may hear and then repeat. Do they think if they allow words like alcohol, cigarette and weapon on the radio it will lead to chain smoking, whiskey swilling, gun toting 8 year olds roaming the street or something?

 

The sanitisation of culture.
