On Monday night, US R&B star Miguel took to the stage at North London's Kentish Town Forum much to the delight of the mostly female capacity crowd. Before he emerged, a strong lineup of homegrown supporting acts all had their own chances to shine, warming up the crowd with performances of varying quality. The queue outside tailed around the venue and onto surrounding streets, and anticipation was high for 26-year-old Miguel's first UK show.

Arriving at Scala on Thursday, June 30 I felt an undefined mix of emotions, some where between excited anticipation and uncertainty. I'm not entirely sure why, maybe because I had only recently discovered the 19-year-old teeny-pop-princess about a year ago, or the fear that the young singer-songwriter from South Carolina may be another churned out manufactured starlet from the industry mould with catchy singles. I wasn't sure what to expect.

Tinchy Stryder has always claimed to be on cloud nine and in 2009, he very much proved that the sky is the limit. The number one selling male artist in the UK was just one of the many accolades which came from the young superstar, whose early Grime days seem like a lifetime ago. Striking a fine balance between stylish verses and big, dance anthems, the Stryderman now finds himself courting the attention of an audience made up of raucous teen fans, respected industry figures in the UK as well as a certain Head of Roc Nation. So what does that mean for his third album Third Strike? Will the prying eyes of all these interested parties force the Golden boy to take a more predictable route? Or does a young man who has gained so much musical power, use it to his advantage to squeeze out a differing sound altogether?
