Mike Skinner is the personified proof, you can be a funny and friendly person and stil be succesful in musicBiz. that´s the best thing you can do i would say.
Is it bad that I actually LIKE this song? I think the sampling from Bloc Party is very well done... the way that bass hits is cool. I'd honestly love to have this on a CD!
I too am an American and think Mike Skinner is very talented! I like him because he's NOT singing about drugs and gangs and cars. His beats are excellent and his lyrics are second to none!
it really shouldn't matter where an artist comes from. it just shows that mikes a legend, that people in america have heard of him, takin in account all the music they're kickin out. mike's not the most perfect person in the world, we can't deny it. but he's still a fuckin good artist
Yes, you are right! I never really thought about it. I suppose it's just because he does it in a more subtle, "classier" way, if you will. For example I've never heard him say "patron" or "dom" or any ridiculous reference like American rappers do. Can we import some of that talent from the UK??
I don't know where you get that impression, there are lots of British songs over here from time to time that are really big. I don't know anyone who would knock a British song just because of where it comes from but I guess there probably are some people who would. I just listen to music if it sounds good, it doesn't matter where it comes from.
great song , the streets u made great show on cracov coke live music fest 09 , "stand back to stage ... listen the music... and now SZALEJCIE (be creazy) ;)"
He isn't a very good singer, but he sings when it does fit and thats nice. I don't have say that he is a dope mc, because everybody know. Streets 4 ever
I'm sure there are more likeable, intelligent, witty, talented people working in pop music today...I just can't think of any.

@jurgieleniu exactly
haha, he met kele right in the streets, this tune is wicked, great beats

Hey! im american and i like him! hes an amazing artist that shows all of his outlooks on life through poetry!
Noone sounds like Mike Skinner...love him or hate him! Unique voice unique style
I'm probably the biggest Bloc Party fan ever. Many remixes really suck, but this one is really cool.
I agree.

@heythereadam Skinner got flow and good voice, it fits him and he does it good
It is a Neumann U87, costs a bit more than $4000. No wonder repairs cost much : )
He isn't a very good singer, but he sings when it does fit and thats nice. I don't have say that he is a dope mc, because everybody know. Streets 4 ever
