This February, it was the turn of one of the most recognizable faces in UK urban music (and self-professed Newham native), Ghetts to head up the panel at our most profound Industry Takeover to date. ‘Talking the Hardest’ was all about the highly controversial relationship between music and politics. Also joining Ghetts was chairwoman, Chantelle Fiddy and panelists Jody McIntyre, Fusion, Austin Daboh and Helen Bray. The night also played host to performances from Ghetts, Baby Sol, Big Cakes, Logic, Rosie Greenwood and Jamie Walker.

VIDEO: Industry Takeover All-Dayer Documentary 2010

Rich Mix in east London played host to the second annual Industry Takeover All-Day Seminar & Showcase, on Saturday, 6th March 2010. Urban Development teamed up with the up-and-coming cross arts centre to takeover the building with a fresh collective of artists, stallholders and guest speakers. Check out how it all went down.

MY TAKEOVER: 40Winkz wakes up to the networking potential of the All-Dayer

Like many unknown emcees and producers, having the hottest music won’t do you much good if it never leaves your bedroom or studio. Truth is, you’ve got to get out there! After all, it’s not what you know…

For me, the first networking event on my 2010 calendar was the Urban Development Industry Takeover All-Day Seminar & Showcase.

PROFILE: Bundi is scouting for girls

“You can get anything you want in life – you’ve just gotta work hard for it,” enthuses hip hop emcee and budding entrepreneur, Bundi. At the age of 22, the East London lyricist knows a fair bit about the hardknock hustle.

From the highs of breaking into the scene with his co-directed and self-financed video ‘That’s Who He Is’, to the lows of seeing his friend die in front of him, at the age of 16, Bundi maintains a clear vision and a phenomenal work ethic.

MUSIC: Bundi 'Girls'

Bundi keeps it tongue n cheek as he gives the inside scoop on the 'fairer sex'. Fusion's jazzed-up soul groove and snappy drums complement the vibe perfectly. Look our for the single when it drops 30th November 2009

VIDEO: Bundi 'Girls'

Bundi's 'Girls' track. A comical depiction of the different ladies in his life. The Fusion-produced track bounces with a classic hip hop feel while director Porge 1 and film maker Ady Leroux give it that club twist. 'Girls' is released digitally on 30th November (iTunes, Amazon etc)
