Exclusive: Mark Ronson hits back at Noel Gallagher after that Moyles interview…
Through the powers of the interweb; this is one story that I can break before the newspapers. Literally seconds ago Mark Ronson sensationally hit back at Noel Gallagher after the Oasis front man blasted the super-producer during an interview with Radio 1’s Chris Moyles yesterday.
“He [Ronson] wants to write his own tunes instead of ruining everyone else’s. Mark Ronson needs to learn three chords on the guitar and write a tune.” Bellowed Gallagher.
But writing on his blog; Ronson has fired back at the singer, saying: “Noel Gallagher said I should “learn three chords on the guitar and go write a tune”. So I just wanted him to know that I’m actually taking guitar lessons from Jay-Z right now and he’s already taught me both chords to “Wonderwall” (tune!). In fact, it’s so much fun having Jay teach me all of Noel’s songs on the guitar (they’re all so easy to learn!) that i”m thinking of doing an Oasis/Jay Z remix album a la “The Grey Album”. Potential titles are “Champagne Superhova” or “Definitely Jay Z”*. I’ll keep you posted!”
Looks like this is a row that’s going to run and run. So, Noel Gallagher or Jay Z? - Which camp are you in?
Edit: I did break this story before any publication or media outlet. Result. Click here to read what the Sunday Mirror had to say about 13 hours after this post was made…

Who is Mark Ronson?

Mark Ronson is a total waste of space. He is so full of himself, so thank God Noel brought him back down to earth. Noel is a billion times bigger than Ronson would ever hope for.
I could do his job easily. It’s not hard murdering what used to be good tunes.

Matt - You say “nobody cares” about this new celeb fued but I think you are wrong. It’s on par with Blur Vs Oasis and is a tabloid dream; it’s a good old fashioned bit of tit-for-tat that keeps on giving.
Steve - For your reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Ronson
Matthew - Thanks for sharing your thoughts. However, you say Mark Ronson is “full of himself” but let’s be honest, Noel Gallagher isn’t exactly the most modest of characters. Don’t get me wrong, I like him but didn’t he make a comment about being bigger that Jesus or something? Hmm…
Dave Lee - I completely agree! Ta for commenting.
