Jamie T - Chaka Demus
"Two World Wars and one World Cup!" I'm not even patriotic. On Jamie T's second EP before his album is released (next week i think) the title song Chaka Demus paints a poignant picture of England. "An Englishman in every coward."
Method Man - Sweet Love
Method Man really annoys me, in fact everyone in Wu-Tang apart from Ghostface and Raekwon really annoys me and Raekwon only escapes from this tag because i haven't dared to listen to anything beyond the masterpiece that is, Only Built For Cuban Lynx! The reason why Method Man annoys me in particular is because he's never made a good album, yet on the tracks he shares with other Wu members he often steals the show. The gruff voice and hint of a lisp is unmistakable.
Grand Puba - 2000
Former member of Brand Nubian, Grand Puba had one of the best flows in the business and in this song his delivery and punch lines induce a 3:38 long smile.
The Cribs - Emasculate Me
Review of their new album Ignore The Ignorant is on its way but I thought i'd add the one song that jumped out at me on first listen beyond the singles, We Were Aborted and Cheat On Me.The Cribs still know how to make infectious choruses.
