Obligatory annual post about some U.K Road-Rap song

CASisDEAD - Venom
(From Venom single; 2023)



CASisDEAD's M.O is that he's a Road-Rapper for UKHH blokes and basic bastards/bitches who'd never usually listen to Road-Rap. Thus, he's the perfect person to go full Gorillaz featuring Róisín Murphy Road-Pop on Venom. A terrible idea in theory compounded by the Bomfunk MC's sounding-arse intro, but a top choon in reality. An unlikely triumph of songwriting execution, and the best British Rap song about baby-mum drama since Sway's Baby Father.

Think I count as one of those basic bastards. This is a choon and I'll probably check out the album since Italians Do It Better's Johnny Jewel is producing on it.

Apparently, there's a sci-fi film attached to this project hence the Dead Corp and Aghast 6 logos. It might even explain why Hannah from Hollyoaks has her eye balls hanging out of their sockets in the Boys Will Be Boys music video.

You're more of a UKHH bloke than a basic bastard, no? You tape-traded unreleased Britcore albums with Yak Bollox. Doesn't get much more UKHH bloke than that.

It was a copy of the second Demon Boyz album. 😀

Big ups, Yak Bollox!

I never thought I'd see the day you're posting a 3rd string grime MC (who I've liked at times!) with fond words.
