RKZ “Gonna Be That”
I’ve featured a few of RKZ’ videos on the site before, but they all had a Bhangra or other Asian themes about them. There is not much of that in this video, but this song and video is cool. The best part being, how RKZ incorporated being featured in Raxstar’s video “Jaaneman” three months ago, and takes off from there.
If you’re digging this track, check out RKZ’ “21 Mixtape” here.

Days of Bhangra Producers Lives: Where everybody has a #bondhpanga
Seems like most Bhangra Producers are on twitter these days. With tweets ranging from album updates, what they’re doing to pass time, or how good they are at cooking, twitter is a little telescope into their day to day life. However every now and then, they may also paint an even more interesting picture of what is running through their mind. This feature helps you chew on what is happening in Bhangra Producers lives.
This time around, I check in with a couple days of madness, where the phenomenon of the #BondhPanga hashtag took off.
Of course, further non PG rated ones were left off, and can be seen on twitter.

DJ Dips “This DJ” Video
I think I like this song quite a bit. Although, I’m not sure it’s because it actually is good, or because the bar has not been set particularly high by Dips.
DJ Dips, took his BBC Asian Network Chart number 1 track, and added 5 MCs and a grimey beat. The result, is the following track, and video.
The song will be released on March 1st, at the usual outlets.
