or - the offer is still open - does anyone wish to join me in declaring any affection at all for the works of cappo / lee ramsay ? please ?

"slanguage" by universal soldiers is a good purchase on initial listen, although it isn't remotely groundbreaking - makes most sense on the headphones whilst wandering around london now it's colder and darker again. will take a few listens to see if it has the same kind of lyrical invention which only became apparent slowly on the various taster singles.
re the cappo / ramsay record, the track by mr 45 is also really well put together - it's called "freedom".
any new 12"s on the horizon by any ilxor's personal uk favourites ?

Jim Screech! He combines hip-hop and reggae, just imagine!http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=92588234
Saw him supporting Roots Manuva about a month back and he was pretty good.

the only DEF stuff i have via ninja, i.e. the ADHD ep, is not hip hop at all !!?
― mark e, Friday, 24 February 2017 22:04 (seven years ago) link
yeah he calls his stuff 'urban electronic' whether it's more straight techno or hip-hop
fuck though, the 'don't freak out' mixtape is nextlev, u gotta hear it, some of the best production in the universe and generally exemplary collabs

his track on the first Danny Brown record was pretty hot

if I could narrow it down to one track, 'brown + clear' ft chynna is...incendiary

Most of the drill I've heard hasn't really done anything for me, all the beats sound the same (yeah I'm old). This one's good though. Carns Hill seems to be the best producer around AFAIK

That's grime not rap. Jaykae and Dapz On The Map are the only Brummie grime MCs who I rate

Brummie drill
― paolo, Sunday, 7 January 2018 13:28 (six years ago) link
In pretty much every drill video there's guys rapping with their mouths covered. Do they just dance about in front of the mic for the video and then add the vocals on later or what
