If you want to read a cracking book about a Russian double agent, read Ben Macintyre’s ‘The Spy and The Traitor’ about Oleg Gordievsky. Amazing stuff (and all true)
Millsy Hasn’t Ed previously said he doesn’t watch movies as he has a short attention span?
No, he said he can’t eat cheese.

Amps Good read that. What a nutter.
MF Doom RIP. Only 49. Genuinely gutted. Easily one of the greatest MC’s of all time.
SM001 Just seen this, gutted.

WHAT!!!!! Absolute legend. This is one of my favs from the past decade or so…
EDIT 2009 so off a bit there.
just saw that too, crazy how many of the great mcs from the 90s are gone already.
303abuser Vanilla Ice still alive….
According to his wife’s social media message he died Oct 31st?!
Dan haha i misspoke.
yeah two months ago, the family just announced it.
The ‘people posting on social media about someone who has died, and yet manage to make it all about themselves’ vibe is through the roof on this one. Not quite Tanaglia / Maradona, but still grim reading.
Amps Flying Lotus?
jonattonyeah Incredible lyricist. I could listen to him all day.
Damn
He was a good producer/beatmaker as well, this still slaps:
Tommy Docherty died yesterday 🙁

Great anecdote / quote;
Legend says Docherty was raised in Glasgow’s tough Gorbals district. In fact, he hailed from Shettleston Road in the city’s east end. From where, in the 1930s, you also had to be as hard as a coffin nail to survive. Docherty would later joke about his mother’s visits to charity shops. “You want to try walking to school wearing a third-hand Japanese admiral’s outfit.” Such humour was typical of “the Doc”: self-effacing and sharp
What a dreadful story that is MC.
Cheers.
Ed ploughs into another thread…
