Sure Shot (rapper)

[4] During the song's verses, Duffus made references to early rap groups like the Sugarhill Gang and Cold Crush Brothers.

[6] John Mayor, a contributing writer for Mixmag, described the song as a "cool jazz attack for Ladbroke Grove's pavement posse.

Kold Sweat was run by Tony Powell who was also the Managing director of Pinnacle Entertainment and was home to some of the UK's prime hip hop acts of that era including the Son of Noise.

[8] Whilst Blak Prophetz was working on new material, Kold Sweat decided to close their doors for business for good but this did not stop him from pursuing his career.

"Money and Gunz" grew popular in his hometown back in the Midlands as Max would continuously make reference to the fact that it was a favourite on Birmingham's Choice FM DJ One Step Ahead show.

Duffus's extensive record collection would often pop up during the discussion as his huge vinyl stack was the backdrop of the interview photo but he was secretive about which samples he used.

He requested Duffus's production skills on a duet track called "Hot for You" which featured Stacey and was released on Brownsugar Records, distributed by Avex Group, Japan.

Notion's writer, Loriann Luckings conducted an insight into the band's progression focusing on how they had travelled and pushed their way through the ranks saying; “The lads went to the big smoke in 1996 to distribute, sell and promote themselves and their music.

"[15]During an interview in the 1 August 1991 edition of Hip Hop Connection,[1] Slater asked Blak Prophetz what they thought of the new emerging success of the US rap group Public Enemy.

A response came from a temporary member at that time namely Willie B who responded stating that "Public Enemy stayed where the money was" (meaning that PE remained attached to a record label that was run by a white management).

The event consisted of a "reggae segment" where Penn performed her hit single "You Don't Love Me (No, No, No)" in front of other celebrities including Nicki Minaj, Jamie Foxx, Chris Brown and others.

In March/April 2021, Loose Ends and jazz musician Dexter Wansel was also signed to the label Digital Jukebox Records to release his new album The Story of the Flight Crew to Mars, reviewed by Soul Walking [25]
