akrobatik - balance
never heard of this, saw in the bins with reference to mr lif, da beatminerz, dj revolution, diamond d as guests so thought i'd drop in and see what its like, as thos names pull my chain, and guess what, i love it.
slow and low grooves, old school loops with a nice variety in sounds. the voice is full of power and passion recalling the glory days of 87.
fits in well with my current listening of old rawkus releases (helped by presence da beatminerz i suspect ! its got that kinda style going on. i haven't had time to absorb it totally, but i know that i will be revisiting this a lot over the coming weeks, so i will expand more at some later time.
in the meantime, dont buy 50 cent.
just scratch the surface - underground independant hip hop is thriving at the moment.
