Jsky & Think™ Team Up on #THDO Campaign - Who The Hell Do I Think I Am?

Who are we? Well, more to the point who do we think we are? We are one community, and homelessness is a failing of sorts. It could happen to any of us; there are so many reasons for it. It hurts to walk by/try to ignore it. I am in the process of embarking on a personal mission with leading design company Think™. With our campaign #THDO we need your help to raise awareness and opportunity. More details to follow soon.

Jskychat Exclusive: Emeli Sandé - Our Version of Events ALBUM REVIEW



I knew it would engulf yet I dived in fully. An album littered with passion, Our Version of Events is as breathtaking as it is brave. My Kind of Love echoes tones of Leona, and Mountains tastes of Adele. I am for words; such a joy for the quality of lyrics. Emeli Sandé seeps powerful exposures of vulnerability. River is deep and current single Next To Me would have Welsh singer Duffy wanting to sing karaoke.

@jskychat: "Emeli Sandé your album is an absolute monster."

Robin Thicke - Exhale (Whitney Houston Tribute)



The content of this record holds great value to me for many reasons. Taken from one of my all time favourite soundtracks, Robin Thicke's tribute to the late Whitney Houston classic Exhale (Shoop, Shoop) is a thing of pure beauty. His adaptation does not attempt to rival, only pay justice. The lyrics made ever so more poignant by the hauntingly fragile yet prepossessing falsetto of Mr Robin Thicke. We all strive for that moment when we can exhale, and for 3 minutes and 43 seconds we can close our eyes and have that.

NEW VIDEO ALERT! Labrinth - Last Time



There's no denying that Labrinth is a musical genius. I have been anxious for his album to be released for quite some time and watching him perform at BBC 1Xtra Live certified my respect for his craft. His 3rd single 'Last Time' is accompanied by a very bizarre video and multi-faceted musicality. I like this track.

The Story of Saturday Night: The Death of a Diva, The Bat of an Eyelash + A Slap in the Face



Should guys wear lashes??? Facebook status update. No/NO!/No never, if you do your not a guy!!!/NO!!/You're all too late ;) [1 like]

I'd done it. After several failed attempts the fake eyelashes were cemented and every blink produced a draft. These things were huge. Definite peacock material, notwithstanding the peacock necklace and earrings of course. I entered Livingroom amidst a gaze of gasps and the most unsubtle of stares. Not that I know anything of being subtle.

Sarah Lawrence looked cute in a fitted blue and white striped dressed that emphasised her chest. Pretty girl. It was about 1am that I got the text. We were all too busy enjoying ourselves in Bijou Club VIP. Whitney Houston is dead :( It was from Anthony Knight (@AnthonyJ_Knight). I refused to believe it. I checked Twitter; it was trending worldwide. God no. I had to tell the others. Tears followed as the news infected.

Fidel the local pest saw me sat down. 'Here we go' I thought. Week after week without fail he bugs the absolute crap out of me. Grabs my hair, doesn't take no for an answer, etc. Right nuisance, and tonight I was in no particular mood for his antics. Nice guy deep down, just a bad drunk. He grabbed my hair. I stood up straightaway 'Do that again and I will punch you in the face' I threatened loudly in front of his boys. I sat back down hoping that would be enough. It wasn't. In an attempt to show off even further he tried to pull off my right eyelash. Enough was enough. I shot back up and cracked him in the face. I know it was loud because people heard it over the music. I'm not a fighter nor do I condone violence. Sometimes you just have to stand up for yourself though. There was a bit of a stand off and the atmosphere fell tense. For a second I thought a fight would break out, but then he disappeared quickly into the crowd....probably to cry. Hopefully he'll leave me alone now.

NEW VIDEO ALERT! Chris Brown - Turn Up The Music



The clubs will eat this record alive. Nothing new is necessarily being done here; I have always been a bit on the fence with Chris Brown. Another disposable R&B club hybrid record for the masses. See what you make of it.

Inspirational Video: Secret to Success by Eric Thomas

"When you want to succeed as much as you want to breathe, that's when you'll be successful."

"Most of you say you want to be successful, but you don't want it bad....you just kinda want it. You don't want it badder than you want to party. You don't want it as much as you want to be cool. Most of you don't want success as much as you want to sleep."

"Don't cry to give up, cry to keep going."

NEW VIDEO ALERT! Sam Sparro - The Shallow End



My ears have been long overdue a new Sam Sparro record. Black & Gold still does it for me on a night out. I can see here with his latest track The Shallow End that Sam's musicality is diversifying into possibly a more Radio One friendly field. See what you make of it.

Jskychat Exclusive: Dave Atkins Interview



Dave Atkins currently enjoys a leading role as Hollyoaks student Rob Edwards who's love for rugby and the student lifestyle come before that of his long suffering girlfriend Annalise Appleton. I caught up with him recently to get a quick interview.

How long have you been acting for? Previous experience.
I was in a play at High School and I have been acting since. When I left school I was in Northern Lights (which became City Lights), The Street, Doctor Who and also Candy Cabs. How old are you now? 22. That’s quite a lot of experience already. Yeah, there’s a few notches on the CV. It’s nice to be working here on Hollyoaks now on a character I can bring something different to.

What other actors are you a fan of/do you aspire to?
Emmett Scanlan (fellow Hollyoaks actor, who plays Brendan Brady). He’s amazing, and he’s been a big help.

Who has been your favourite Hollyoaks villain?
Again I would say Brendan Brady. I used to watch Hollyoaks before I was cast and he’s a really good character. He’s funny. He is, and there’s a lot to him.

Are you anything like your character?
[Laughs] Erm, [laughs] well, we have certain things in common. Like we both like to play rugby. I do see things in Rob that I have seen in other people.

You’ve seen me dressed up on a night out, and you’ve seen my blog. Tell me…what do you think of Jsky?
[Laughs] Yeah mate, you’re a top bloke. I’d just say you were a good lad; a top bloke.

NEW VIDEO ALERT! Madonna - Give Me All Your Luvin' (Feat. M.I.A. and Nicki Minaj)



Madonna's new video to her precarious return to form is playful. M.I.A. and Nicki Minaj feature alongside as cheerleaders and present the record's only real change of monotony. This could be a grower.

Alexandra Burke - Elephant (Behind The Scenes)



Alexandra Burke is one of the few X Factor finalists who has remained as exciting today as she was during her time on the show. Her latest single Elephant produced by dance giant Erick Morillo is literally about to get swallowed everywhere. Check out the leaked behind the scenes video.
