(From I Just Can't Stop It album; 1980)
Birmingham's alright if you like Sabbath and saxophones! People often dismiss the U.K 2 Tone scene as a buncha nutty boys over cod-Ska, but there were some spooky-arse songs to be found too. Grosse Point Blank is no Point Break let alone a Point Blank, but it does have something special both those movies lack: a John Cusack versus Benny Urquidez fight scene set to Mirror In The Bathroom.
(From Da Beat single; 2016)
Still the best U.K rapfrobeats song not recorded by J Hus IMHO. Bare Makosi and Anthony in the hot tub sensual vybz. Pains me greatly that this song never blew up because it deserves to be a U.K classic.
Big Brother when it still mattered.
ReplyDeleteEy, how bout a Mase appreciation post to celebrate his Cam'ron diss?
ReplyDeleteThe internet is saturated with Ma$e posts right now. The last thing it needs is another one.
ReplyDeletePlus, The Oracle isn't anywhere near as entertaining as the Ma$e vs. Jim Jones argument on Hot 97 in 2004.
Cold dissing Madness.
ReplyDeletePublic perception, not my view.
ReplyDeleteAs far as I'm concerned Madness have 4 bona fide 10/10 singles: Baggy Trousers, One Step Beyond, Night Boat To Cairo, and It Must Be Love.
"Our House" too!
