Â
London’s west end is screaming out for a dose of underground Hip-
Hop and original Soul and who better to prescribe it than The Doctor’s
Orders.
Â
After 3 months of headline guests from the US in the shape of DJ Neil
Armstrong, Sadat X and Bobbito matched by storming sets from our
residents we are bringing back to the UK for this extremely special
album launch party for the UK’s most prolific and respected Hip-Hop
producer who is pulling out all the stops and calling in an all star line
up of MCs & singers to join him.
Â
Â
Baby J is the UK’s very own Kanye West. Both hailing away from
their respective nations’ perceived centers of Hip-Hop they have both
become experts in their field and man-magnets for the finest in Hip-
Hop & R&B talent. Having struck gold with his ska remix of Mark
Ronson’s “Valerie†featuring girl of the moment Amy Winehouse
which reached number 2 in the national charts and stayed there for
eleven weeks as well as spending 5 weeks at the top of MTV’s airplay
chart Baby J’s star is shining brighter than ever. With production
credits for American Hip-Hop giants including Wu-Tang Clan, Brand
Nubian and Dead Prez for his new “Baby Food†album he has selected
a stella line up of UK vocal talent many of whom will be performing
on the night. Once again he has shown his credentials as a studio
giant and will be showing how those talents are matched by his skills
on the decks as he rocks the house for the dedicated party people.
Â
Joining Baby J to perform tracks from his new album is titan of the
UK Hip-Hop scene Million Dan that has one of the most definitive
styles of any MC in the land. Stepping up to display the stunning
soulful vocals that have seen her selected to travel the world as the
primary vocalist for Marc Ronson’s live show is Tawiah. Derby native
Alex Blood will display the his lyrical dexterity that is as equally
influenced by Marc Bolan as it is Toots and the Maytals. Malik will also
be stepping up to raise the roof with the help of another packed
dance-floor.
Â
Shortee Blitz is a shining light of the Hip-Hop scene in the UK.
Whether supporting traveling US stars, holding it down on one of his
two weekly Kiss FM shows or tearing the roof off clubs all over the
globe one thing is for certain and that is that this MOBO award
winning DJ is always going to be spinning with a smile on his face.
Even more so now he is a resident at for a night dedicated to the Hip-
Hop & Soul styles he truly loves.
Â
DJ MKÂ first came to prominence through his now infamous mid 90’s
mixtapes that are still the prize possessions of those wise enough to
keep their tape decks well oiled. They now represent the blueprint for
the sounds that MK will be spinning at this new night. When away
from his day jobs as Roots Manuva’s DJ & as Kiss FM’s Thursday
night Hip-Hop DJ extraordinaire he will be found doing what he does
best, rocking crowds with the sounds of his beloved Hip-Hop.
Â
Spin Doctor is the driving force behind the phenomenal success of
The Doctor’s Orders and while not planning domination of the UK’s
party scene is most at ease behind a set of decks. The early
influence of his 5 older brothers and sisters record collections
developed into an obsession with soul tinged music of all styles which
he uses to this day when treating dance-floors to his fearless sets of
party platters.
Â
The B-Boy Cypher is a circle in which dancers display their skills in a
battle of one-upmanship. Each month London’s finest b-boys and girls
will be heading to the west end to display their finesse to the sounds
of the very best b-boy DJs in the business. Skeg has been the driving
force behind the ever-popular Breakin’ Bread nights for the past 10+
years and has developed an ability to cut up Funk records unrivalled
in the capital. DJ Hooch was dropping bombs at his legendary Funkin’
Pussy night, the longest running weekly Hip-Hop & Funk club known
to mankind, before many of the current crop of Hi-Hop heads were
out of short trousers. Â As the man responsible for the annual UK B-
Boy Championships his credentials among the dancing community
are unparalleled. As a talented B-Boy himself D.Bo knows exactly
what sounds they want to hear when hitting the floor and he will not
disappoint!
