During my career day at school, it was clear to me which road in life I wished to travel. My hand shot to the skies when asked "so kids what do you want to be when you grow up?" Straining with excited effort I shout "Biggie, Tupac and Grandmaster Flash!" The silence followed by laughter still haunt me today.

Yet life sometimes offers you a second chance to follow your dreams, to hear the music, the moment and to never let it go. Yes I'm talking about Hip Hop Karaoke! The coupling of Japanese fun and bum shaking hippidy hop.

The Social Bar in Oxford Circus is the dream factory for all you hip hop music lovers to scream your way through a fantastic night, and whoop along with the other screamers. Bursting with fun and a 'give it a go' atmosphere, the social is a great place to just sing like everyone's listening.

I must admit my meteoric rise to hip hop stardom hasn't taken on the pace I'd wished for, but with my Thursday slot at the the social its only a matter of time before I give Jay-Z a run for his money.
