Kele Okereke responds to Bloc Party's hunt for a new singerKele Okereke, the former frontman of Bloc Party and now solo artist, has responded to the band's announcement that they will be holding auditions for a new singer. The three remaining members, Russell Lissack, Gordon Moakes and Matt Tong, have said that they will be making music together but want a new singer. Okereke took to his blog on iamkele.com to respond. His first post entitled 'You can't fire me because I quit!' had a video for Nirvana's 'Scentless Apprentice' and he wrote below: "dont believe everything you read" His second post deals, entitled 'oh dear', directly with the news: "hmm, i dont know what to make of this. a big part of me is laughing on the inside but another part of me is all like WTF? im quite curious though, as to what a bloc party audition would be like? i wonder if they would let me sit on the panel so i could be a judge tyra banks style?" Check out this live performance of 'Helicoptor' from Bloc Party's 2009 Glastonbury appearance and Kele's live performance of 'Rise' at Glastonbury 2010:
