I built and ran this website between 2000 and 2001, combining passion for popular music and programming. It was listed by MTV's now defunct MusicNewswire as one of the then nascent web's top twenty sources, alongside Billboard and VH1. The most exciting part of it — for a 13/14-year-old excited by new music — was receiving scores of pre-release CDs from record companies. The entire project was written entirely from scratch (frameworks and libraries were not the norm back then!) in PHP linking to a MySQL database, with HTML as well as a little CSS and JavaScript for the frontend; the code is available here.

According to UK newspaper, The Sun, Eminem will be playing at this years Brit Awards on 26 February 2001. As previously reported by Music Goes On he has been nominated for 'Best International Male Solo Artist'. You can view a full list of nominations here.

The Sun was told by a 'close source': "We're keeping everything under wraps. But let me just say that it will blow your British minds. It was touch and go if Eminem was going to make it for the Brits. But his record label have applied pressure and he's definitely going to be there."

Westlife and Robbie Williams have been confirmed to play at the 'British Record Industry Trust' Awards. Westlife will be performing this years official Comic Relief single, a cover of Billy Joel's Uptown Girl.
