Review 71: Blazin' Squad - Now Or Never
Laughable.
Like some sitcom skit come true, Blazin' Squad stormed into the charts and, er, our hearts (of thick girls, anyway) a couple of years back. And what are they? Everything you've ever laughed at - stupid British white kids pretending to be "street" and American, using phrases like "Shorty" which NO KID IN BRITAIN ACTUALLY SAYS.
Thankfully, it didn't last long. Their first single went to number one (a dire cover of "Crossroads") while the whole gang (about forty of the little tossers) stood on a high rise flat making tough faces and hand gestures, blissfully unaware that anyone over the age of twelve was laughing at them.
It really is awful stuff, but thankfully they never repeated the success of their debut, and having clogged up the charts for a little while, split up. Phew.
Now one of the little turds works in a bank. How about that, gangsta? And then another one of them went into the career graveyard that is reality television - already washed up at the age of about 16. Way to go, kids.
Now or Never, Blazin' Squad? You called it, guys.
