    No idea who Slick Rick is but I'll do my research.
    They must have edited the song. Possibly why they were on studio after they landed back to London after the DNA tour...
    Whoever it may be, can't wait to hear the break. This song will enlarge their audience which is a good thing.

    BREAKING: @LittleMixOffic announced on @insidemix96 as Friday night headliners at first ever @Chilfest - 5 & 6 July

    I thought they were doing Alton Towers on the 6th ?

    They are gonna be done serious driving after this show. Atleast there is a day inbetween!

    I'm not convinced Slick Rick is a huge selling point. But he will give a good throwback to the song. Too bad he wasn't in the UK for the video. Assuming it is this version.

    As far as the "surprise" for HYD, I live for the day when singers dont have rent-a-rappers, and rappers dont have divas because they cant sing themselves.

    YES!! Totally agree :D ... These collabs screw up the charts imo.:mad:
    (Maybe there should be a separate 'Collabs Chart' :p;)

    Radio 1 seems to love them so I wonder if they get to do Hackney weekend. Is it called that?

    Its called Radio 1's Big Weekend :) It was called The Hackney Weekend last year because of the Olympics.

    Its in LondonDerry this year.

    I had a feeling you wouldn't want a feature CV lol. The feature is good as it will mean its different to the album version! :)

    Featurings are what made hip hop more popular in the 90's. For me, they are essential in black music as they bring new blends.

    You guessed right. I have nothing against a duet when the talent can sing. The Gaga/Tony Bennett "collab" of Lady Is a Tramp was surprisingly good because their voices went well together.

    I have a big problem when the sounds just dont go well. Everybody preferred Wild Ones without Flo Rida, Pitbull and Xtina? give me a break. The rappers are just plopped down and emit their croaky sounds. I signed on to Little Mix because I wanted to hear singing.

    The Curmudgeon has spoken.

    Is Wild Ones not the other way round? As in Flo Rida asked Sia to sing the chorus around his rap verses? Edit: I was right its Flo Rida Ft. Sia. :)

    Read this on somewhere else "If its a guy rapper 95% certain he will ask why they aren't picking up the phone"

    That does seem like a good idea tbh :D

    Yes, but my point still stands. One cant sing, so draft in one who can. Same with Serial Collaborator Pitbull.

    I wouldnt mind LM dueting but I want them to have someone who can actually sing to elevate the song.

    SWV feat Redman, Method Man feat Mary J Blige, Liberty X feat Reverend Run, etc... for me a rapper together with a pop/rnb artist can transform the song into a gem.

    DNA will be releaed May 28th in the US.
    Wings better happen next month because they r releasing the album sooner than I expected.

    Thankfully they have the radio tour. Hopefully high profile tv appearances too. I think it's going to pick up and do well enough. Followed by DNA.

    I think right now the album could sell what "Wings" sold in its first week. Unfortuantly 17k isn't much.

    But the biggest mistakes will be 1)no high profile tv appearances 2)not returning near or right after the release date.

    I think album 2 will be a proper worldwide launch though.

    I was wondering who was the guy dressed in black in the bottom right of the picture.

    https://twitter.com/LMUpdatesBrasil/status/310479878661214209/photo/1

    Dressed like a rapper, he seems to have gloves on. What gives it away is that he appears to have some kind of bling bling on his glove. He seems to be center stage as everyone is behind him.

    The thing is, I would like to know what the camera is filming because on the small screen, something is written but it's blurry.

    Could it be Chipmunk?

    It could also be a guy fixing the setting.

    Looks like Chip to me. He is back in the scene...
