Thanks to the success of the new track "Dynamite" on Youtube and Soundcloud it's been played on Radio Stoke a few times and now they've asked me and Skrewluce (Was known as Bruxx when we made hardcore) to go in for an interview!!
Now I know it's only local Radio, but I really don't care this is pretty effing cool! First time I've been excited about anything to do with my music in a long time!!
And don't worry if/when I do eventually make it big ;) (lol) I shall remember those who supported me AND those who voted for me in the 2008 Happyhardcore.com awards for best MC. Which I STILL HAVEN'T got my medal for haha ;) ;)

Thanks man, lol everyone's said I've got to tone down "ME" I'm very foul mouthed, cocky/confident and tell very rude & very LONG stories haha. So Fingaz crossed lol

P.S.
'The Grind' is still near the top of our 'To Do' list. ;)
Thanks man,
Haha after nearly 2 years :P :P
Still looking forward to hearing it, you ever need any vocals doing, want those vocals re-doing or want to use any other Hardcore lyrics I've done, I've got LOTS of notepad files I can record & you can use :)

The last take you did was perfect mate, we're just too b*stard slow in finishing off our tracks
and it's good to know that you're still up for some Hardcore MCing.

Shame this isn't a major label release as i'm sure this could've had a week or more there.
Wow, thanks man. Have had a fair few people saying we should of put it on I-tunes and they would of bought it. But tbh I'd much prefer more people to hear it than make about 17 pounds profit from it. I can make that in a few hours knocking doors or selling "Fingaz Mc Collection" cd's
Thanks so much though man really appreciate it :)
I wrote a status about it the other day getting compliments is the best thing ever... **** it I'll post it on here:
"I started Mcing about 17 years ago (I say Mcing, I was awful, I was 11 and high all the time lol) to emulate my then hero Lee 'mc Livelee' Bennett since I was truly, madly deeply in love with the hardcore scene and the Vibes & Livelee show.
Then I was Mcing because it was a good way to pull women, believe me back when I was a teenager the Bad Boi thing WORKED, not this metro-sexual, Joey Essex ******** nowadays...
Then I really took the Hardcore Mcing seriously and it was FUN, but I have to say there's a lot of politics in Hardcore, a lot of "who you know and who you blow" ********.
I've seen some untalented tossers get so far up in a scene that they shouldn't of even been a part of...
When I stopped Mcing to hardcore which I am glad I did, (I'm not a fan atm, Hardcore is cyclical, it's coming off the back of major commercial success and subsequently the quality declined eventually hardcore will go completely back underground and the quality will eventually improve drastically and I may get back into it again when that happens) I realised that I was Mcing for the wrong reason....
Now I Mc, write poetry, entertain and perform because I want to be remembered for something other than what people from my PAST (You people from Stone who try to chat shit about me DO NOT know me anymore, 13 years away is a long time) think of me.
I want to leave a mark on society and I want that mark to be a memorable, funny, serious, romantic and sometimes political message.
Solely chasing the money and fame is over (Although it'd be nice), but the fact that I have people who actually say they enjoy something I'VE created is such a satisfying feeling.
For someone like me who is never going to have kids, this is like watching my babies grow, having people pay me compliments or people enjoy and dance along/sing along to my music is the greatest reward you can ask for.
That's why me and Skrewluce (The man who without I would of never been on a single track or done a single performance) are working so, so so hard to bring you more and more music as long as you guys keep enjoying it!!
Thank you to all of my fans, I love each and every one of you!!
