RECAP: May 2011

The Bigger Picture looks back on what was an eventful month in the musical calendar, giving you the chance to read anything you may have missed!


On May 11th it was a remembrance day for the life and achievements of Bob Marley, we published a colourful and respectfully brief article on the man which received a lot of praise from readers.

You can read the article here:

On May 14th we reviewed and critiqued from a highly analytical perspective the brand new mixtape from the UK's very own Tinie Tempah. This article drew in a lot of praise and a lot of time, effort and heart went into it so if you didn't catch it the first time then here it is again for your reading pleasure! :

Three days later we brought you a thought provoking insight into Canada's answer to grime Tre Mission, this was an article which opened a lot of people's eyes and allowed people to learn more about the man. It is a great little read so if you missed it, here you go :

On the 19th May, The Bigger Picture wrote an interesting and linguistically flamboyant article and review of the controversial rapper Tyler the Creator. You can check this out right now by clicking the link below :

Towards the end of the month we gave you treats such as a brand new single from Lil Wayne's forthcoming album Tha Carter IV, the documentaries on the British rapper Blade Brown, the saddening news of Sean Kingston's accident, and we introduced to you two of the finest producers around. One of which has since managed to strike an agreement to produce a song for an overseas artist.

The blog really is taking off in all directions and providing a platform for everybody who is involved musically. There are a number of avenues we are looking to travel down for the forthcoming month including an exclusive interview with a childhood friend of 50 Cent! Stay tuned!

This has been a very successful first month for The Bigger Picture having accumulated well over 1000 hits with just my own promotion. We are now becoming increasingly popular and hence we are giving the opportunity for artists, musicians, producers or anyone else to promote and advertise on this blog.
