Just a quick update on the Lex show in London and a lush Tes review...
SOLEXISM 5
Well, it's been a hectic week getting ready for Solexism but it's worked out
pretty well - it looked like superstar MC Jemini The Gifted One wasn't going
to make it, but the latest reports from Danger Mouse are that the pair are
flying out today, phew! There's tons of tickets sold and no further hitches
with artists. I'm looking forward to enjoying the show tomorrow.

TES 9/10 REVIEW IN THE NME
The Tes album is in shops in Europe this week and the press is still rolling
in:
"Awesome urban hop-hop from the Big Apple.
New York resident Terrence Tessora is a man with heart-swelling affection
for his great city. Indeed much of "x2" deals with his feelings in the
aftermath of September 11. It's a record brimming with courage and hope,
which also provides a document of the skills this bright MC brings to the
table of smart, sussed innovative hip-hop.
"x2" sounds not unlike great moments from hippy rap collective Arrested
Development, only uprooted from bohemia and relocated to the urban sprawl of
the Big Apple. Consider the lolloping breakbeat of "Change" and Tes' speedy
lyrical delivery. "New New York", meanwhile is an early contender for this
summer's breeziest tune. A renaissance man of flair and wit, clearly Tes is
hip-hop's brightest new hop." 9/10 James Jam, The NME (26th April 2003)
