Gor blimey, leave i' ou', ma'e, know wo'a mean... same pianah loop playin' oveah an' oveah, inni' ;-) Marrying po-mo barrow-boy Eastender/Essex-isms with knowingly cheesy sub-garage beats and frankly tedious keyboard or orchestral loops does not add up to 'British hip hop'. Can't understand why the critics went apeshit over this and gave it a Mercury Music Prize or some such. Or perhaps I can, all too easily. Queasy listening. alan/beyond...sound Quoting Aaron D Meyers <adm226@nyu.edu>:
