I f*cking hate rappers!

If you've ever though, "What the hell are you on about?" when you listened to a rapper in an interview, felt cheated by long track listings which are low on quality or wondered why the new section of rap cats don't show enough respect to the old school, then chances are you'll want to get your hands on one of QN5's "I f*cking hate rappers!" t-shirts.

To promote their cause PackFM and the boys have put together this video of a whole host of hip hop's great and the good coming off like BBC2's Grumpy old men.

Karl Hinds returns

Probably best known for his take on Big L's Ebonics, where he flipped the UK slanguage dictionary with supreme style, Karl has been missing in action for around three years now. That's all changed though as he steps back in the booth to spit once again.

If you came to British Hip hop like i did when Blak Twang was blowing up then Hinds was one of the dependable go-to guys of the scene who you always knew was going kill the tune whenever he stepped on it. So it's with a big smile that I'd like to welcome him back.

Over at his MySpace he's got three new tracks up for your perusal all with a proper club vibe. Here's hoping he makes it back on the live scene and over the sunny Cardiff.

Props to Bare Beats for the heads-up.
