    I only know that I do not like that accent when it comes out of him.

    Chunes, why pick on purple? You Sir are a colourists deep down and are trying to manipulate Gooner' into fighting your dirty battles.

    Oh Gooner' if we were to call you 'Hater it would give the wrong impression and not highlight your loving, sweet natured, caring side.

    I have spoken to him on the phone in 88 before a trip to NYC, no accent no street talk just a normal bloke.

    His street lingo is not as bad as it was in the mid 80's when he was on LWR anyone remember that pirate station.

    Anyone see him on bad meaning good Hip Hop Doc back in the early 90's embarrassing or what.

    He plays records of someone elses music. Overlaps each record,sometimes with effects and gets paid lots.
    Wished I'd thought of that.

    I think that the guy is able to laugh at himself, but some of his less intelligent listeners miss the point and think it's all serious. OK, he may sound like a nob, but I actually respect him for championing the music he loves, even if I don't always agree with his judgement. He was promoting many artists who are now big way before they were famous and whatever you say, he knows his onions and is respected in the business as such, which is quite an achievement for a posh white boy in a working class black man's world. That speaks volumes.

    He has, however, spawned a thousand reverse coconut faux patois idiots that make me despair when I have the misfortune to hear them though innit!

    Don't really have an opinion on the bloke, the music he represents that is another matter, complete & utter s*** only UK Garage music is worse.

    Yeah I know, I was only joshing!

    He does look completely different though, I never would have guessed in a million years that was 50cent.

    The older he gets, the more of a prat he looks. Do we have to judge everybody by how much money they make? He can't be a prat because he makes more money than anybody on here -so what? I think Jordan may make more money than most of us, and Susan Boyle!!!!

    id love to give westwood a slap and any one that listens to the jank music he plays needs a good hiding too. woeful.
  • Someone I know was very good friends with Tim Westwood growing up, and helped him a lot in his early days. Word is however, that Mr Westwood has only scored around 5/10 at remembering where he came from and who helped him get there.

    Westwood is the the kind of person that should not be allowed to mate, his offspring would only hold back the human race

    Middle class vicars son, why he needs to speak in that way who knows. Pretty much like white schoolboys going around trying to talk like black guys ....hilarious but at least they're young & have that excuse.

    As for being a promoter & that automatically means they're mega rich think again. I've a friend who regularly brought over hip hop/rap artists as well as some soul artists over a 15 year period & while he's comfortable he's by no means rich (even tho he's tight ;-) )
