Ditto. I was fortunate enough to see Buken and Conrad at one of
Universe's Voyager parties in London about a month ago and it was
brilliant. I'd never seen an MC before who was totally annoying or just
plain shit, but Conrad is in a class way above the rest. The only other
MC who comes close is Calvin Watkiss who MC's at the Metalheadz night at
the Bluenote. Bukem, of course, was flawless (which is more than I can say
for Goldie... ouch)
