WHAT'S UP

OK, it's not the sequel to Who Betta Than This? (my favourite NZ hip-hop track of all-time). Actually, that track had a remix so if there was another WBTT it'd be the third installment. Whatever. This is the new track by PNC, What's Up, produced by NZ uber-producer Pedro Dinero a.k.a. Petey Peso a.k.a. P-Money. Keep up to date with what the bros in Kiwiland are doing by checking out their blogs here and here. Particular thanks to P-Money for putting me onto Dizzee Rascal's new track Bonkers super-super early and making me look like a dance music superstar when I dropped it at the Bing last week!

STARWATCH - WILL.I.AM, P-MONEY

STARWATCH was my favourite section when I worked at New Idea (yes Stephanie Macintosh, that was me writing about your ass) so I thought I'd jack the title for whenever I run into random celebrities at XO and wherever else I'm getting drunk at. Above we've got will.i.am who dropped in to chase white girls say hi last Saturday, and below we've got P-Money (with Fuzz Tha Boss) who ripped it up spinning the platters that matter. As a bonus I've also thrown in a pic of what was probably the biggest night in XO history, the Leon Smith Crunk Night where the Ying Yang Twins turned up out of nowhere.

THIS WEEK AT XO - P-MONEY

We only have the best DJs from around Australia and around the world at XO @ HUNTER BAR, which is why this Saturday (March 8) we've got P-Money from New Zealand. You'd know him best as the super-producer of a stack of hits from guys like Scribe and PNC. Check out P's blog here and his MySpace page here. If you want to get on the guestlist for this Saturday night, email XO!
