The single is "Straight at yer head". I just picked up the CD at the weekend for a mere 10p. It was boring my tits off until the Mills mix came on - he's actually made this mix sound a bit like 2 or more tracks being worked together as per his Tokyo mix CD. Even so the "packet of P" sample starts to grate after a while. On the basis of this disc and the free 7" that came with a recent(ish) Jockey Slut, I have to agree with the "overrated" verdict, at least on musical output. I seem to recall that the Select mixtape was pretty good. I see that his new mix CD gets top marks in a Muzik review too.
