Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

The Streets:
Fit But You Know It
[A Grand Don’t Come For Free]

4 The Streets – Fit But You Know It

What is the point of The Streets?

The guy who “sings” this sounds about as convincing as Phil Daniels’guest spot on Blur’s Parklife(!)

Eamon: Don’t Want You Back
[I Don’t Want You Back]

1 Eamon – Fuck It (I Don’t Want You Back) :O === *3rd Week at No.1*

What a complete waste of time this is. Like D12, this is uninspired rap, buthere with more f-words per minute than Goodfellas, which is the reason plentyof idiotic kids have bought it.

His apparent ex is releasing a “reply” single, “Fuck You Right Back”,which sounds exactly the same. When will the general public release theirreply, “Who Gives a Fuck?”

Why don’t he and D12 just rename their songs, “Let’s all be as stupid aswe possibly can because we’re all dull!”?

This is the 3rd new single to go straight in at No.1 in a row:

  • 1. Usher – Yeah!
  • 2. McFly – Five Colours in Her Hair
  • 3. Eamon – Fuck It
