Proof that Noel Gallagher of Oasis deserved the cross-check he received onstage in Toronto earlier this month: the guitarist/opinionated a-hole has written a whole bunch of songs he think could be the theme to the next James Bond film, and spouted off this week about Amy Winehouse being unable to sing any of them because she'll be dead before she can. Nice, Noel. As they say in your native country, sod off. [chartattack]
Kardinal Offishall has been a mainstay of the Canadian urban-music scene for over a decade as an MC and a producer - and finally he's got a hit south of the border; 'Dangerous'(featuring Akon) is all over the radio worldwide, and as my best friend said a few weeks ago, "This is huge for Kardi, eh?"(direct quote). He was on The Tonight Show recently as well, and while his star rises, he insists he ain't about to change. Pounds.
One of the seminalest of seminal '90s bands, Smashing Pumpkins will release a DVD of their reunion show last year called If All Goes Wrong. Included in the two-disc set are an interview with The Who's Roger Pete Townshend(?), live footage of shows in North Carolina and San Francisco and tons more. Should be worth the purchase, I daresay.
The folks at Relevant always have good stuff to report - like this guy. He's gonna take his search for a third wife public on the interwebs because God told him to. Geez.
