NME music crossword

Once again one clue is evading me! Rapper who went 'Digital' in 1998..... K?s/on? As a rock and punk fan the rap questions are always a problem.

Thank you in advance.

KRS One. Whose name supposedly stood for "Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everyone". That could be answerbank's motto!

[sharon mit]

Not in my case apparently!

Thank you muchly.....

I'd recommend you put this site in your favourites

You can check out song titles and artists.

For instance, putting in Digital as a song title gives just two hits, one of them KRS-One

Thanks for that link - I do actually know a fair bit about music but as rap is not my first (or even tenth!) choice I don't tend to read up on the subject. Now when it comes to punk, this 48 year old needs no assistance!

I'm trying to win this crossword for the fifth time....

I've just subscribed to the NME under the fiver a month deal, and I always do the crossword. Like you I'm in my forties, and more a fan of rock and punk.

So, we may meet again !

We may well do - I go to a load of gigs each year so if you are as obsessed with sweaty, dirty punk as I am, see ya at the bar!

You can't miss me - I'm the one with the purple hair....

I can't believe the one clue I struggled with last week was For Reasons Unknown - I am a massive Killlers fan but I was Googling for ages for a song called For Persons Unknown before the penny dropped.

Ps My obsession is with The Dickies and Half Man Half Biscuit

I'm addicted to Punk and in particular, Green Day - I work on two of their fansites as a moderator - and I've been smiing at the fact that three weeks on the trot 'my' band has featured in the crossword. Simple things!

Half Man Half Biscuit - long time no hear!
