  Chelsea are leading the race to sign England international Ross Barkley from Everton during the January transfer window. Blues boss Antonio Conte was hoping to bring Barkley to Stamford Bridge last summer and launched a deadline day move to secure his signature. Barkley was interested in the switch but decided to turn Chelsea down as he wanted to regain his fitness before making such a major decision over his future.

Here, Clash staff name some of the imprints who have kept them on their toes during the past 12 months... Dekmantel   (Felicity Martin) Killer festivals and events, now a ten-year label exposing some of the most exciting dance music going - everything these guys touch turns to gold. It’s p...

The Jamaican Legend Worshiped by millions, Rastafarian reggae superstar Bob Marley captivated audiences worldwide. We delved deep to find some hidden truths about the Jamaican legend. 1.  Bob Marley’s original name was Nesta Robert Marley but his middle and first name were swapped around to preserve his masculinity after a comment was made that Nesta was seen as a girl’s name. This was not the only thing which was noticeably different from his birth certificate. After Bob was born on 6th February 1945, it took his mother a while to finally get him officially registered, meaning the date on his birth certificate was incorrect, stating he was born on 6th April. 2.  From the age of four it was discovered Bob Marley could read palms. When Cedella (Bob’s mother) first heard of this from relatives and neighbours she took it as a joke. These palm readings invariably came true, which left his mother quite shaken. When Bob was a lot older ...
