Alien

House on Bold Street was the venue for Saturday's Alien EP launch with ROSH and guests.


Rosh has impressed me massively over the last year since I first saw his video for Cemetery Wealth:
 

 
I'd heard Alien back in November at the Brink so I couldn't miss the EP launch.

The night was lead off by Locco Artist who was joined on stage by Josh Robinson and D-Boii

Royzy was next up and smashed his set, including some real lyrics from the heart about being torn away from his kid.  This sums up what I'm now appreciating about this style of music, its a story, and you have to listen.
 
His version of Adele's "Save me" is boss:

 
Next up it all went international :-) with a Wolverhampton, Birmingham and Liverpool  stage with Tommy Oliver and his guests including No Ego.

I've been waiting to see Kerr in the flesh for ages, and he didn't disappoint. The boy has immense stage power to take his audience up a level.  The reaction from everyone around me was simply "WOW!"

Yet more of this city's amazing talent took to the stage including HollaMan; F.M.K. and on his stage debut (not that you'd know it) Acko - who had the audience bouncing before Jamie Broad rounded off the support acts in style.

Also need to mention D.j. Twokind who did the business throughout the night on the decks.

So, time for the main man.  Rosh opening his set with his autobiographical Enter The Dragon Pt.II, the was joined by Dominic Dunn and Kerr for their colloboration from earlier this year Keep Me Down
 

 
After playing another smash with Shana Tova, Rosh rounded off a BOSS night at House with the headlining Alien (download via the link).

A brilliant night with amazing talent.  You've heard me go on before about the crap that TV pushes out. If you want to hear real music, from the street, check out the guys above.

I'll sign off with some sound advice from HollaMan (Chris Holland)
You don't have to explain yourself to anyone, you walk in your own shoes. nobody gets to see what you see but you, so forget these people who hate on others to cover up their own depression and get on with what you're doing.
