Our belated entry for this week is the supremely talented Eminem with his album The Marshall Mathers LP 🎤

We are quite confident that pretty much everyone in the world has heard of Eminem and that most people will be familiar with his body of work. And rightly so, as he is one of the greatest rappers in the history of Hip-Hop, maybe even the best of all time, tell us what you think on that below.

We want to focus on The Marshall Mathers LP, which was his third studio album released on 23rd May 2000 by Aftermath Entertainment and Interscope Records. Synonymous with Dr. Dre's incredible production throughout the album, combined with the lyrical prowess that Eminem possesses and with some big guest appearances, this album is an all-time great in our opinion.

And don't just take our word for it, Rolling Stone named it the best album of 2000 and it often appears in best album of all time lists from publications from all around the world. It has sold over 25 million copies worldwide, certifying it as 11x platinum and diamond and was nominated for 2 Grammy Awards in the year of its release, winning one for best Hip-Hop album.

With huge hit singles including "The Real Slim Shady", "Stan", "The Way I Am" and "I'm Back" among others, it's clear to see why it was such a success.

Lyrically and sonically unlike anything that had come before it, this was a much more introspective album than its predecessor "The Slim Shady LP" and is widely regarded as Eminem's best work to date, whilst also causing a lot of controversy with some of the topics the content touched upon.

We love it and will always be big fans of Eminem, what's your thoughts?

Better late than never, yesterday's act is Dafuniks 🎶

A fantastic Hip-Hop, Breakbeat, Soul and Funk group from Denmark. They're the finest export from Denmark since Peter Schmeichel or bacon. This group have produced some of the best modern Hip-Hop we've heard. Their beats are packed full of soul, and they never fail to excite with their music.

Founded in 2008 in Copenhagen, Dafuniks released their first album "Enter The Sideshow Groove" in 2012.

The group is made up of Justmike, PrinceJuice, DJ Nyber, Christian Jesperson, Thomas Cox and Tue Damskov, as well as rapper's Elias and Joseph Agami. They also regularly have guest features on their tracks, often other rap artists or vocalists 🎤

They've released plenty of EP's and mixes for various artists around the world 🌎

They released their second studio album in 2015 called "Past Present Future" which is one of the most played albums at Fun-Da-Mental HQ. It's an incredible piece of work from beginning to end. It sounds both completely new and like something from an era gone by.

They have a new EP out this year called Brakes On, and we are hoping this means another studio album will follow 🙌

Please go and check them out, they're a fantastic group. Stream them on Spotify or Apple, and show some support in all the usual places you listen to music. We would love to get them to an event of ours in the future if the opportunity arises as we are massive fans. Watch this space ✌️

It was a great night yesterday at Pembury Fireworks display. What a great turnout. The weather held off nicely, and the fireworks were fantastic. The Fun-Da-Mental team were running the bar, and our hot beverages were going down a treat, as were the beers and ales supplied by local brewery

A massive thanks to the for organising the event. We look forward to doing it again next year.

Today's album is Legend by Bob Marley & The Wailers 🎶

This is a greatest hits compilation that was first released in May 1984 on Island Records. All the tracks are in their original vinyl format, and it is the best selling reggae album of all time with over 12 million sold in the USA and over 3.3 million sold here in the UK 🙌

Bob Marley is such an influential character, his music touching the souks of so many that have listened to him. Always striving to add real depth and meaning to his music. You would be hard pressed to find a corner of the world that hasn't been influenced by his extensive back catalogue of incredible tunes.

From "No Woman No Cry" to "Three Little Birds" from "Is This Love" to "Buffalo Soldier" and from "Redemption Song" to "Get Up Stand Up" and so many more massive tunes, this really is some album 👏

However, it has drawn criticism over the years as being purposely marketed at the suburban white demographic by intentionally leaving out some of Marleys' more politically driven tracks. But this aside, it has plenty of unforgettable tracks that are extremely well written and performed. And songs such as Redemption Song still certainly carry some weight with regards to Markeys' political viewpoint.

If by some miracle you've not heard this absolute masterpiece of an album, we implore you to do so. It's astoundingly good 💚💛❤️

Today's classic album is none other than Rumours by Fleetwood Mac 🎶

And what an incredible album it is. It was the 11th studio album for the British-American rock band and one that is recognised as an all-time great. Released on 4th February 1977 by Warner Bros Records.

Rumours was recorded during some tumultuous times for many of the bands members. There were several break-ups within the band and heavy drug use, which resulted in many of the themes and directions of this album moving from the original concepts they had set out to record. But every cloud has a silver lining, and it proved to be the catalyst for writing and recording some incredible songs 🎵

Rumours became the bands first number 1 album in the UK, whilst also topping the billboard charts in the USA and was an instant commercial success, selling over 10 million copies worldwide within just a month 👏

They released "Dreams," "Go Your Own Way," "Don't Stop," and "You Make Loving Fun" as the lead singles from the album. And of course they also got a huge response from "The Chain" which has one of the best and most recognisable riffs within rock music, and was later used on the soundtrack for Guardians Of The Galaxy 2, exposing the band to a whole new audience.

It received critical acclaim around the world, winning them Album of the Year at the 1978 Grammy Awards, and received diamond certifications in multiple countries. In 2003 it was inducted into the Grammy Hall Of Fame and is often recognised as one of the greatest albums ever, coming number 7 on Rolling Stones list of 500 greatest albums of all time 🙌

It's a true classic. If you've never heard it, go and treat yourself. It's fantastic from start to finish👌

19/10/2023

Another classic today on with the timeless Aretha Now by Aretha Franklin 🎶

She oozes soul, her voice is astoundingly beautiful, and she has to be in any list of the greatest vocalists of all time. No one hits notes quite like Aretha, with her blend of gospel and soul defining an era.

This timeless album, which is a personal favourite at Fun-Da-Mental HQ, is astonishingly Aretha's 13th studio album and was released in 1968 on Atlantic Records.

With hit singles "I Say A Little Prayer," "Think/You Send Me," and "I Can't See Myself Leaving You" all having massive chart success, it's easy to see why this album is still so popular today.

The album went gold on both sides of the pond and sold more than a million copies in America alone. It was later re-issued on CD format in 1993, and again got very good figures.

We could have chosen any number of Aretha albums for our list of definitive albums that should be in everyones collection, but this one really hits in our opinion. If you by some miracle don't know it, give it a whirl, you won't be disappointed.

A true icon in the music scene, with a legacy that will stand the test of time for generations to come 🙌

This week's feature on is probably the most refreshing and genius to date. It's none other than Ren. A man whose back story is as incredible as the music that has come from it 🎶

Originally from Anglesey in Wales, but these days hailing from Brighton, Ren is quite the anomaly. Aside from being one of the most gifted and talented musicians of a generation, he is also completely independent 👏

Ren's music is thought-provoking, awe-inspiring, dark, humorous, and completely like no one else. He has become one of the most watched artists of the last 12 months and has done so off the back of particularly turbulent times regarding his health. Ren was misdiagnosed for the best part of a decade, leaving him with autoimmune problems and rendering much of his 20's bed ridden. He was later diagnosed with lyme disease and is currently undergoing treatment in Canada.

Like many others, we first discovered this musical prodigy after the release of his epic and theatrical "Hi Ren" which delves into the juxtaposition of the voice in your head that tells you you're not enough, versus the side of us that's striving for better. A story of the balance of light and dark within us all. This track isn't merely music. It transcends and is a conceptual piece of art in its own right.

From there, we have delved into everything he has ever released, and wow, it's just phenomenal. He is a multi instrumentalist, singer, rapper, producer, and incredible storyteller. We strongly suggest checking out the trilogy of "Jenny's Tale," "Screech's Tale," and "Violets Tale" in that order. Another must is the Money Game trilogy, just inspiring and such a brilliantly crafted piece of work.

Ren has just released his new album, "Sick Boi," completely independently. This is a Hip-Hop album, with some seriously clever wordplay, impeccable flows, and great use of cadence. The album jolts into different directions and grabs your attention. We urge you to give it a listen and go grab a copy as this has a serious chance of making number 1 this week. What an achievement that would be 🙌

12/10/2023

Our next entry on for our list of classic albums of all time is the fantastic "Jagged Little Pill" by Alanis Morissette 🎶

Released on 13th June, 1995 through the Maverick record label. It was the first of her albums to be released worldwide. It marked a huge stylistic change from any of her previous work and was a rip-roaring success 🔥

It topped the chart in 13 countries and sold over 33 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time. Alanis became the first Canadian to achieve a double diamond selling album 💎

With its themes of angst and love, over an alternative rock, post grunge, and pop rock sound with very clever lyrical content, Alanis had cemented herself as a truly influential songwriter and artist 🤘

It was nominated for 9 grammys, winning 5 of them, including best album 👏

With hit singles "Ironic", "Hand In My Pocket", "Head Over Feet", and the massive f**k you single "You Oughta Know" it's easy to see why this became such a huge success.

A great album that has stood the test of time and still sounds incredible now 👊

09/10/2023

Next up on is the absolutely incredible Dutty Moonshine Big Band 🎶

The brainchild of DJ Michael Rack aka Dutty Moonshine, they are a 14 piece Big Band from Bristol, that fuse oldskool 1930's jazz and swing elements with heavy uk bassline music, fronted by Hip-Hop and Grime MC's.

Of all the live shows we have seen, these guys are just next level with their energy and party starting anthems. It's damn near impossible not to enjoy one of their sets and to not dance until you feel like you're going to drop. They're explosive on stage and have to be seen to be believed.

Following on from the success of their second album, City Of Sin, they have a brand new album out, called Villain. This is their 3rd studio album, and oh boy, does it pack a punch 👊

If you haven't already, we implore you to go and give it a listen, it's fantastic. With some great guest features including Greg Blackman, MC Pean, and Crime Hawk, to name a few, each song on the album sounds like a stand-out single of its own accord.

They have been pretty huge on the festival circuit for a while now and are firm crowd favourites and regular performers at Boomtown festival, amongst others. And it's easy to see why. Just an incredible band, so give them a follow, download their back catalogue, and grab yourself a ticket to one of their upcoming shows this winter as they embark on a nationwide tour. You will not regret it!! ✌️

So today's classic album is Nevermind by Nirvana 🤘

This was the second studio release from the band and was the first to feature drummer Dave Grohl 🥁 It came out on 24th September 1991 and was an incredible success.

It was certainly a groundbreaking album for the band, bringing grunge and alternative rock to the mainstream and cementing their place as the iconic rock band of the 90's. Heralded as the band to end what was dubbed "Hair Metal" music, and deliver some much needed substance that sparked a revival of interest in punk music amongst the youth of the time 🎸

Kurt Cobain's clever use of lyrics touch on an array of subjects, that added some much needed sensitivity to rock and proved you could have a hard hitting sound whilst highlighting topics such as anti-sexism, love and anti-establishment rhetoric. All this led to Cobain being called the voice of his generation 🎤

With hit singles "Smells Like Teen Spirit" "Lithium" and "Come As You Are" amongst others, it's no surprise that this album hit the way it did.

It sold more than 30 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time, and during its release was selling up to 300,000 copies a week. Staggering numbers 🔥

It is often included in lists of the greatest albums of all time, and we completely agree with that notion. Timeless, well written, and hard-hitting. What's not to like? A definitive classic 🎶

This week's #musicmondays entry is the absolutely insane talent that is JFB 🔥 One of the finest scratch DJs in the world! JFB, who is from Brighton, first started scratching on pirate radio in 1996 to DnB music and has since gone on to become one of the finest around, covering a multitude of styles and genres from Hip-Hop, Breaks, Dub, Funk, Jazz, Beats, Bassline and DnB. He can do it all 🙌 He is a 3x DMC UK Scratch Champion, winning in 2007, 2011, and 2015. He then went on to win the DMC World Championship in 2021 after finishing runner-up in 2020. He teamed up with DJ Angelo to take home the 2021 DMC World DJ Team Championship and was crowned DMC World Beat Juggling Champion in 2020. These are just some of the accolades he has won during his career 👏 His lightning quick hands are a sight to behold, and some of his now infamous scratch routines have to be heard to be believed. Constantly striving to improve and push the boundaries, JFB is always a favourite at any event or festival 🥳 We have had the pleasure of having him perform for us as a headliner on 3 occasions so far, and each time the crowd have left in awe of what they witnessed. He just so happens to be one of the nicest guys we've met within the industry so far too 🤘 If you haven't seen him live or aren't aware of his work, we implore you to go see him whenever you get the chance, as he tailors his sets to not just showcase his scratching and beat juggling skills, but also to allow the music to breath and create sets you can dance your socks off to. He is, in our opinion, the GOAT 🐐 at what he does.

A little late, but this week's #musicmondays is one of the greatest MC's this country has ever produced. None other than Harry Shotta 🎤 Born in Essex and now residing in Kent, Harry first burst on the scene at Notting Hill Carnival and with his brilliantly written Hip-Hop album 8 Days A Week, released in 2010 🎶 He is one of the best lyrical MC's around, and has honed his skills over the last 15 years, twice winning the Best Lyrical MC award in 2016 and 2017, as well as winning The Best Music Video, best breakthrough MC, and Best Newcomer MC at the Drum & Bass Arena awards. He also overtook Eminem in The Guinness Book of Records for most words in a single, cementing his place as the fastest lyrical spitter around. After starting in Hip-Hop, Harry was always looking to other underground genres to add different elements to his music, and it wasn't long before his double time flows were matched with Drum & Bass, a genre he has now become synonymous with. He later became a part of the SASASAS, a supergroup of MC's and DJ's within the Drum & Bass scene. This group consisted of Skibba, Shabba, Shotta and Stormin as well as DJ's Phantasy and Macky Gee. They were a force within the scene and really pushed what was already a growing genre. Harry's impeccable flows coupled with his fantastic ability to write incredible lyrics over pretty much any genre, as well as his uncanny nack for freestyling has pushed his status as one of the very best the UK has to offer 🙌 Harry recently joined forces with beatboxer Killa Kela and DJ Prime Cuts to deliver a live show that goes through Hip-Hop, Dub, Jungle and DnB music to bring a show unlike anything else on the market, under the name Road Bloc. They recently supported GZA from Wu-Tang Clan and are sure to have many bookings at festivals over the coming summers ☀️ The sky is the limit for how far he can go, pushing the boundaries of what an MC can achieve. If you haven't heard his music, where have you been? Check

Massive thanks to @crossvisuals_ for editing our Spring into Summer after-movie again, so it would contain the new logo, great work as always. It's now ready to add to the new website which will be launched very soon. If anyone is looking for a professional videographer with competitive prices, this is the guy to speak with. Fantastic workmanship, he goes above and beyond to get the results you're looking for, and he's a really nice person too, which always helps. Check him out 🎥 🎬 🎞
