P-MONEY’S ANGELS

P-Money’s doing some next level ish once more. Not content with just doing a standard music video for his new song ‘Angels’, he’s decided to make a mini movie or (as he puts it) create “a movie trailer concept”. Take a look at this:

He’s also gone the whole hog and taken out bus stop adverts in his native New Zealand to promote the “movie trailer concept”. UK artists, take note!

P-MONEY FT VINCE HARDER – EVERYTHING

I’ve been playing it since Zane Lowe gave me a copy in August. I made it the last Jam Hot of 2008. The buzz on this record is growing and growing and everyone that’s heard it seems to love it (including Trevor Nelson, Ronnie Herel…) I am of course talking about P-Money ft Vince Harder’s “Everything”. No, not the London grime emcee P Money, the New Zealand beatsmith and producer of Akon P-Money.

In it’s native New Zealand, the record spent 3 weeks at number 1 in their main chart and a subsequent 5 months in the top 30. It’s certified platinum over there and it did all of this on downloads only. In Australia, it was the #1 added record at radio and has sat consistently in the top 10 of the club chart. The video is on near constant rotation in NZ and oz…and I think it could be a huge record in the UK if only a UK label were to pick up on it.

For me, it’s got that Kid Cudi ‘Day N Nite’ feel about it in that it crosses boundaries – it’s a bit dance, a bit electro, a bit soul, a bit HipHop and a bit R&B.

All we need is a funky remix….
