    1. Wiley - Taliban (Eskiboy Recordings)
    2. Plan B feat. The Rolling Stones ¨C Paint It Blacker (Pet Cemetery Recordings)
    3. Dhruva & Sharmaji ¨C Koli Stance (Demo)
    4. Heavyweight Champion Feat. KRS One ¨C Arrival (Bassnectar Remix) (Om Records)
    5. Jehst ¨C Psychedelic Phlegm (Boombox Records)

    This my current top 5 on my homepage...


    WIley is number 1 as he is the biggest name in Grime after Dizzie Rascal and has done something completely new - talked about Islam from his non Muslim perspective and talked about it in a way that others in the media eye don¡¯t - he see's it as a complex issue, not something that can be defined by a tabloid headline.

    Dhruva & SharmaJi are number two as the track is simply astounding and emotional in ways most other tracks aren't. It¡¯s also a great entry point for Dub-Step if you don¡¯t know what dubstep's about.

    Heavyweight Champion feat KRS One is this week¡¯s Bass Breaker track - the sort of track that destroys sound systems!! And finally Jehst is number 5 with the brilliantly named Psychedelic Phlegm - a stream of consciousness laid over old black and white style Bollywood.

    What do you think? Are there other contenders for the top 5..have I left anyone out?

    oops - forgot to mention Plan B & The Mighty Rolling Stones..Paint It Blacker - ....Plan B confirms his status as a master storyteller on this track with one of the stones best numbers from their 'Hippy' Era, Paint it Black. The beats are sort of Dub-Steppy as well so the tracks a master in mash-up 2007 type biznizz!

    Wiley are doing some great work. Breaking down reality- chipping down prejudices - one Kalashnikov and one turban at one at a time.

    You column made me think that we need a song called- 'Tabloid Talibans'
