tekniq Posted February 5, 2005 Share Posted February 5, 2005 WTF...i just downloaded a grand doesnt come for free.....i dont know what you guys have over there as far as music/hiphop in the UK but this last album was totally GARBAGe. the concept was cool basically describing events from beginning to end, but the beats/lyrics are kinda wack. its a shame because i was kinda digging original pirate material. Any comments?? speak on that shit... p.s. im guessing Gaff means crib? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huw Posted February 5, 2005 Share Posted February 5, 2005 i haven't heard many of the tracks from his album, but apparently it is nowhere near as good as his first one. i thought his first one was pretty good, some good beats in there. and yes, gaff means house...

Rick Flarez Posted February 5, 2005 Share Posted February 5, 2005 OMG THE ALBUM IS LIKE A STORY!!! I haven't heard it but I hate it because you say: "it's shit" and someone says "but the whole album is a story!" The singles are fairly poopy I think.

S S Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 the streets are bollocks. he chats about the same thing in every song - kronenburg, B&H, greasy spoons and pills. dont waste your time with that crap, there's much better british stuff out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Demon Boyz were also wicked. Recognition is a top album. Also check out some old Derek B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blak Randy Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Listen to X2K. Try, Kashmere, Klashnekov, Mystro, Junior Disprol, Jehst, Taskforce, Phi Life Cypher, P Brothers, Cappo, Foreign Beggars. For older stuff, Yeah try Hijak, Demon Boyz, MC Mello, Hardnoise, Cash Crew, Silent Eclipse. DO NOT CHECK THE STREETS. He is not good. He is not UK Hip Hop. He is shit.

Steve Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Don't forget the mighty Gunshot too. They did some good stuff. I've got a stack of old Hijack and Gunshot on a CD a guy sent me. Stuff I'd never even heard before, plus a live Hijack concert. I would definitely agree that The Streets are not hip hop though. Don't think that it's representative of the UK scene because it's not at all. It's chav music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chee Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 The Streets is a piss-take / spoof act, surely. Like Goldie Looking Chain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
