To celebrate the 10th Anniversary of The Social the classic mid-week hip-hop jam is being resurrected, featuring Rob Breezy and the original residents, James Lebens, plus of course a DJ who needs very little introduction - DJ Yoda. And it's absolutely FREE. This is what, Mr. LeBenz has to say about it: "Back in 1999, if you were a fan of hip hop in London then Spread Love at The Social was the only place to be. From '99 to 2004, the night played host to some of the most exciting hip hop DJs and acts from both the UK and US every other Tuesday night for no pounds and no pence. But more importantly, Spread Love was the original residency for one of the UK's most colourful and successful DJs in recent years, and also paved the way for many other classic hip hop events at the Social, including Hip Hop Karaoke and Southern Hospitality. Step back in time with us at The Social for a one-off reunion celebrating one of London's most innovative free hip hop events" Couldn't have put it better myself. So, see you all there then...

"MC Hammer's back catalogue has been sold for $2.7 million. You heard me. Two point seven million dollars. The whole smelly collection has gone to aptly named music publishing company Evergreen, who plan to store the paper that this nut-boilingly daft deal was written on in a cupboard, next to the snake oil and lucky heather. Peeling a pair of underpants off his head to speak on behalf of Evergreen, David K. Schulhof commented: "We anticipate that many songs in the MC Hammer catalogue will emerge as a perfect fit for licensing in movies, television shows and corporate advertising." And thinking about it, he's probably right. Anyone marketing very hot soup, exposed electrical wiring, fragile glassware in a gift shop, that sort of thing, would surely part with top dollar for a universally ridiculed novelty abomination like 'U Can't Touch This'. Equally, a forward-thinking parish priest might wish to re-allocate some of the roof restoration fund to finance an advert on hospital radio using Hammer's other inexplicable hit, 'Pray'. And that's without milking the lucrative world of home improvements. When was the last time you were captivated by an ad for a mallet? Exactly. At the height of his success, Hammer sold 10 million copies of the album 'Please Hammer, Don't Hurt 'Em', pulled in a huge sponsorship deal with Pepsi, marketed Hammer dolls, Hammer lunchboxes, Hammer clothing (yes, you could buy parachute pants) and single-handedly dragged an entire genre of music into the mud. Then in 1996, he filed for bankruptcy with debts in excess of $14 million and became a TV evangelist. He's all wrong. Leave him in the toolbox."
