As part of Bob Marley week on Radio 1, Yasmin and Wretch 32 dropped in to the Live Lounge to perform two uniquely spectacular covers with a little help from the brilliant Vula Malinga and Sharlene Hector. You can listen to both covers below and download the MP3s HERE. R.I.P. Bob.
Earlier today Example joined Wretch 32 in the live lounge studio to perform their new single Unorthodox, which is currently sitting at number 1 in the midweek chart. Wretch also performed a brilliant cover of Adele’s critically acclaimed hit, Someone Like You, putting a whole new twist on the meaning of the song. You can listen to both below and download HERE.
After the news that his second single, Unorthodox, is currently at number 1 in the midweeks, Wretch 32 has decided to release the dates for his first UK headline tour. With the success of his first single and the reception he received on Example’s latest tour makes it the perfect time to make that next step up. After the jump you will find all 12 dates and remember you can still get Unorthodox, HERE! Tickets go on sale @ 9am tomorrow. Ahhh yeaaa.

Official visuals for Wretch 32’s new single, Unorthodox - this is one of the best videos I’ve seen for ages. I want one of those jackets. Out April 17th.
Here are the first two remixes of Wretch 32’s second single, Unorthodox, which is set to take the chart by storm when it’s released on April 17th. First up is a smashing Drum & Bass remix courtesy of Logistics, and after the jump you can hear the first Dubstep take on the track, which has been done by one of the major proponents of the genre, Distance. More to come.
Here is Wretch 32’s latest single, Unorthodox, which features Example and uses the Stone Roses classic ‘Fool’s Gold’ as its sample. Have a feeling that this might do pretty well - it’s the perfect follow up to Traktor. You can catch them performing it on the Example tour, which kicks off in Norwich on February 22nd. Hottest Record in the World. (Hit the jump to hear another track off his upcoming album, which features female vocalist, Alex Mills)
Wretch 32’s debut single, Traktor, is currently flying high on the iTunes singles chart. Here is the Drum & Bass remix from the Brookes Brothers, who have had a monstrous 12 months. Looking forward to what they have to offer in 2011.
