The R'n'B singer/songwriter, Kelis, will be kick starting this week's Together with her well known hits including 'Milkshake' and 'Acapella', which is currently at #5 in the charts. Kelis has worked with some of the biggest names in the industry including Willl.i.am, Bjork, Outkast, Raphael Saadiq, Moby, The Neptunes, Enrique Iglesias and Basement Jaxx. Kelis has been busy working on her next album 'Flesh Tone' with producers David Guetta, Burnz, DJ Ammo, Boys Noize, Diplo/Switch and Free School.

Twenty-three year-old Tinchy Stryder racked up three consecutive top three hits in six months last year: 'Take Me Back' featuring Taio Cruz, 'Number 1' with N-Dubz and his second #1 single 'Never Leave You' featuring Amelle from the Sugababes. Tinchy's last arena tour sold out, his debut album 'Catch 22' went Gold within two weeks of release and he has also set up his own clothing label 'Star in the Hood'.

The New York legend Afrika Bambaataa is known as the 'Godfather' of hip-hop culture and 'The Father' of the electro funk sound. His creation of electro funk, beginning with his piece 'Planet Rock', helped fuel the development of other musical genres such as Miami bass, electronica, house, hip house and early techno. Bambaataa was the pioneer of Zulu Nation, an international hip-hop awareness group which arose with New York City gang members organizing cultural events for youths, combining local dance and music movements into what later became known as the various elements of hip hop culture. On September 27, 2007, Bambaataa was nominated for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
