UH OH CHIPMUNK - DON'T CROSS LOWKEY - NEW FEUD OUTBREAK

Oh no he just didn't, did he?
Little Chip Diddy Chip's upset resident serious rapper Lowkey - for dissing others who have fewer material possessions apparently.
So Lowkey's decided to teach Chipmunk a lesson, posting "The Warning" on Youtube.
However, as is usual with Lowkey's "responsible" attitude to the world - he had a bit of a crisis of conscience over his rhymes.
After posting the Youtube link, he said in a series of tweets: "I did not enjoy doing that, and I don't want people to keep cussing the guy, but when you talk down to other people about material possesion...
"And look down on others for having less than you materially, as if that is some measurment of talent, don't expect me to say nothing.
"Humility doesnt cost you anything. Humble yourself.
"Just to clarify the track is not a diss. It is a warning. He tweeted me yesterday a couple silly statements, then deleted them. Humbleurself"
Heed these words young Chipmunk!
But what did you say that so offended Lowkey? 
You can follow Lowkey on Twitter @lowkeyuk and Chipmunk @chipmunkartist
Charlie Sloth's already bigging this one up - what do you make of it?
Not sure who put the video but here's the credit http://www.youtube.com/user/AKAGrimeTV

OZZY OZBOURNE GOES DARK FOR THE ROUNDHOUSE ITUNES FESTIVAL


TIME was, Ozzy Osbourne was primarily associated with Black Sabbath, alter-ego The Prince of Darkness and his on and offstage antics.
But in these days of celebrity obsession, half his family have overtaken him. The media spotlight spends more time shining on wife Sharon’s celebrity judge stints, daughter Kelly’s weight-loss and son Jack’s latest daredevil stunt.
In turn, Ozzy’s become the Boris Johnson face of heavy metal – a harmless-looking amiable mumbling chap, with unkempt hair, a questionable past and  oft-seen wobbling on  two wheels. But give the guy a break, he’s taking his limelight back and will be trying to be as convincing as possible as The Prince of Darkness at July’s month-long iTunes Festival at the Roundhouse.
The full 31-day line-up – featuring more than 60 acts – has not yet been announced but we do know Scissor Sisters, Tony Bennett, Faithless, The XX, Chew Lips, The Drums, Chipmunk, Darwin Deez, Ellie Goulding, Kate Nash, Diana Vickers and Daisy Dares You are all on the bill. 
Pick the right gig and you could inevitably find yourself witnessing one of those rare, historic sets that brings more than you bargained for. At last year’s festival Liam Gallagher made headlines at one of Oasis’s final performances when he strode on stage in a furious mood, eyeballing the crowd and swearing about students throwing beer at him. Even so, they played on for two hours, although at times it looked like Liam was about to go on strike.
The atmosphere between him and Noel was visibly tense, as big bro dismissed his sulky younger sibling and played on while Liam collected himself. But the entire evening was electric and one that won’t easily be forgotten. The irreparable cracks were pushed further apart and it was only a matter of time until our boys just couldn't stand to share the same stage any more.
The iTunes sets are usually quite short but who’s complaining when there’s the chance to see some huge acts up close for free. 
That’s not to say you can just walk in. Apple is making tickets available through Facebook and a series of competitions and giveaways. My only reservation about this is it seems you can only access their iTunes page by allowing it to access your own Facebook page and take the details of your friends.
I may be wrong about this, but I could find no other way of getting on to it. 
It will be the first time that Ozzy, Scissor Sisters and Tony Bennett have graced the Roundhouse stage.
All performances will be recorded and can be bought from iTunes stores worldwide. The best of the festival will be broadcast on ITV.
