I produced a rap album for my friend RAFFFFFF. It’s out everywhere today. An Ordinary Life features songs about: burnout, being driven insane by short-form video algorithms, the healing powers of love, democracy falling apart, and spaghetti bolognese. raffffff.bandcamp.com/album/an-ord...

I still have the robot heads we used to wear (cardboard boxes covered in tin foil), not sure why

Back then the songs were about dinosaurs, angry robots, and hating Jeremy Kyle. The new record is all about celebrating life in all its mundanity - taking the kids to a soft play, burnout, losing your mind to the algorithmic hellhole, and having a nice dinner.

LONDON FRIENDS - a week today I’ll be down your way to celebrate the release of An Ordinary Life, a rap album I’ve made with my friend RAFFFFFF. 14 years ago we made a song about Gary Barlow so infectious that it ruined the premiere of The Dark Knight Rises for Fearne Cotton. Sorry Fearne.

This has got ‘unwanted Christmas present from a well-meaning auntie/uncle’ written all over it.

The proliferation of late-night coffee houses and dessert parlours is heartening for this reason

Amazed (and slightly baffled) to say I’m playing at Ronnie Scott’s in November. Come along if you like. Theo Croker’s on in the main room, so you can see his early show then come and watch me do… whatever it is I do. www.ronniescotts.co.uk/find-a-show/...

I do not understand how there is such little pushback against a worldview that has radicalised white English men to riot in the streets and the state to commit institutional violence against all migrants, so little condemnation of an attitude fundamentally at odds with basic human decency

Every time I start a new project I have this sinking feeling, like this is it: I’ve finally run out of ideas. Cue existential dread. Then finally I come up with something halfway decent and it’s SUCH a thrill, and I remember what the point of it all was in the first place. Music is fun, they said

This is how I found out this show exists - haven’t had Netflix for a long while. Just spent a lovely 15mins reading all the dreadful reviews and imagining thin-skinned Gervais trying to pretend he doesn’t care what the woke snowflakes think. Delightful.

Totally agree, such pernicious use of language. It was annoying me even in 2021, so much so I named a song after it 😅 gregsurmacz.bandcamp.com/track/legiti...

Yeah could be a class thing. I dunno, there’s a story every 10mins about something being turned into padel courts here and I just think ‘who is this for?’ All my local parks have free tennis courts 🤷‍♂️

I’m sorry but this whole thing must be some kind of tax scam, because I’ve never met anyone that’s actually played this game (therefore it isn’t real)

This whole ‘Manchesterism’ thing is horseshit as well. They ripped out the soul of the city and sold it to Chinese and Middle Eastern interests, pricing out a generation in the process. But still, they painted some buses yellow.
