Kozzie Vs. Sox Rematch Lord Of The Mics 3 [Video]

After the choke from Sox during his and Kozzie's Lord Of The Mics clash, theres been a lot of rumours and speculations flying around as to what actually happened. We then heard a lot of people claim that Kozzie only won the clash by default and for no other reason.

So the Blue Borough mc caught up with Lord Of The Mics, to prove to everyone that he's still willing to clash and has confirmed the rematch with the Brum mc, hopefully this time we'll get to see the full clash from both mc's.

Kozzie-I'm Famous Out Now [Release]

After the success from the 'Spartan' vocal, produced by Spooky, Kozzie's career has steadily progressed up until now where he releases the second single from his recent mixtape, 'The Problems Started', for his track entitled 'I'm Famous', which we also recently saw a video for.

The single, which was released by the No Hats No Hoods label, contains six tracks, including the original, produced by Faze Miyake, a remix from Virgo and the instrumentals from both of these as well. However the highlight of this mixtape for me is the last track on the release entitled 'My Life' which features vocals from Cylena Cymone and the production of the track from Mensah. The track showcases Kozzie's story-telling abilities as an mc and shows us a deeper insight into his personal life, which we've yet to hear.

You can purchase the single now from both iTunes and Bookmat below.

Hollowman Jendor - Beat Keeps Screaming [Official Net Video]

The OG'z mc releases the second video for a track taken from his mixtape 'When It Rains It Storms', with the track entitled 'Beat Keeps Screaming'. After recently also dropping the video for 'Gutter Sound' and holding two launch party's for the release, it shows how much hard work Jendor's put into this project.

The track featured in this video is certainly one of the highlights from the mixtape, with it's monster dubstep production, so it's only right that we now get to see visuals for it as well. The video, filmed by We Goin In, also features clips taken from the first launch party, that was held in Oxford and we also see apperances from mc's Kozzie and Blacks.

Kozzie - Lord Of The Mics Interview

So we've heard Sox's side of things from the Lord Of The Mics clash, now it's time to hear Kozzie's version. The Blue Borough mc gets across his side of the story and tells us, in detail, what really went down. Catch the interview below.

Kozzie VS. Sox LOTM 3 Aftermath

If your a grime fan then you would already know what happened in Jammer's 'Dungeon' at the Kozzie & Sox clash for Lord Of The Mics 3, but if your not a grime regular or you've had no Internet this week then I'll give you the quick run down of events.

Basically the pair were in Jammer's basement ready to clash, Sox spat his bars then Kozzie spat his. Whatever Kozzie said seemed to put the Brum mc under a bit too much pressure however as Sox then stated, that he had forgot his bars and he wasn't going to clash.

The next day we then saw Sox on radio slewing Kozzie again as if nothing had happened and the clash had gone ahead like planned. Now whether Kozzie got a chance to hear this or not I'm not sure, but he also had bars for the mc on Logan Sama's Kiss FM show on Monday night.

Finally today we saw an interview on Lord Of The Mic's official YouTube page with Sox to try and clear up any confusion. Sox gives a couple of reasons as to why he forfeited the clash, however none of which make much sense.

First of all he claims that he found it hard to write for Kozzie as he doesn't rate him, although it was Sox that first sent for Kozzie and also seemed to have enough bars for Kozzie the other day on radio. Then lastly he states there was too much going on that day, including coming to London for the first time and being involved in interviews and photoshoots, which again I'm not sure what to think of.

Watch all the video's and listen to the audio below.

Kozzie-I'm Famous Official Video (No Hats No Hoods)

Kozzie releases the video for 'Im Famous', the second single from his mixtape 'The Problems Started'. The track, produced by Faze Miyake, is a certified hit with the Blue Borough mc expressing his recent fame after the 'Spartan' track was released.

I've got to say I'm very impressed with this video, which was directed by Ambrose Yalley, as it captures the track perfectly. We see clips from the mc in the studio to photoshoots to performing in the raves and also see cameo's from DJ Logan Sama, taken from his Monday night Kiss FM show and Kozzie being interviewed by Hyperfrank.

The track 'Im Famous' will be released on No Hats No Hoods on September 19th with a bassline remix from producer Virgo and the B side produced by Mensah. There is also a very limited edition run of 'The Problems Started' t-shirt which you can purchase from the No Hats No Hoods website here

Lord Of The Mics 3, Jaykae - Sends for Tre Mission and addresses Kozzie [Video]

From what was originally planned to be a clash between Kozzie and Sox on LOTM 3 has now turned into almost a doubles match between Kozzie and Tre Mission and the Birmingham pair. It seems most of this hype session is aimed towards Kozzie with a few bars towards Tre Mission. So now comes the wait to see what the Canadian mc has to say.

Kozzie's Reply To Sox Lord Of The Mics 3

Kozzie's Reply To Sox Before The Clash - Lord Of The Mics 3

Shortly after Sox sent for the Blue Borough Mc, Kozzie has replied already before the LOTM clash takes place.

After seeing both video's and hearing some decent bars from Sox i've got to say Kozzie kills it on this one.
It will be interesting to see what happens on the day of the clash.

In case you missed the send from Sox you can catch it here.
