Anyone heard this? Frickin' ILL. Dude kind of has an Omar thing going on, and the beats are really ill. The first one is kinda Sa-Ra-Esque except it's actually FUNKY and not just weird. They got a Waajeed remix too which is butter. Phonics you would LOVE this.

    What were you saying, Patrick?


    damn, just made a thread about his album. You know why I like it? dude did the whole future soul schitt RIGHT. I come across shits loads of juno/keyboard synth sa-ra stuff, and a lot of is contrivied or just really not good, so to hear a 18 track album of it done right is a surprise.

    and yeah dude does have an omar thing popping.

    Is this on iTunes or anything? Wouldn't mind a try-before-you-buy on the cheap.

    I do wonder if it's really the kind of thing that'd normally get bracketed with an act like Est'elle, though. Not that it'd mean much to folks in the US hearing her for the first time, but girl has done her apprenticeship on the hip-hop circuit over here and I respect her for that - she isn't some stage-school brat who wants to "have a go at rapping" and has been handed a major deal because she's easy to sell.

    Still, most of her recorded shit has displayed an unashamed pop sensibility which is fairly common amongst a lot of similar black British acts in recent years, and I have my doubts about the extent to which an American audience raised on the more high-protein shit will buy into that, if at all. Nevertheless, if she sees a chance to grab the brass ring, then good luck to her.

    Oops just posted about this in the other Black Spade thread.

    As I was saying, got a promo of the album through the post a while ago but hadn't actually got round to checking it out properly beyind a quick flick through. Will put it to the top of my listening pile now.
