Solid Steel - UK v's Philly

On the advice of someone or other on Facebook (which is how I make all decisions regarding my life, no matter how big or small), I downloaded this mix a few weeks ago but only got round to giving it a proper listen today and I thought I should share the goodness...

Back in November of last year, Phill Most Chill and DJ Format took to the turntables for 30 minutes each to drop some obscure rap records from their respective areas for the SOLID STEEL RADIO SHOW to promote their album The Foremost

*this simple, irrellevant fact has absolutely no bearing on the decision to repost this mix here. Honest.

The Foremost...

^^^ seriously looking forward to this LP...

The Most Fantastic...

Apparently this has been available for a couple of months now and I am frankly disappointed in myself that something this hype (esp. the title track - phew!) slipped under my rap radar*...anyway, you can pick up your vinyl copy, complete with instrumentals, accapellas and fresh artwork RIGHT HERE , right after me...



* actually, I have never been equipped with a "rap radar",  I have no idea what's going on  musically or otherwise so I tend to just buy what I'm told to like everyone else. Sorry for the confusion...

Cold Rock Stuff...

and whilst you're waiting for that to drop, why not download this not-strictly-official but officially dope remix of Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five by my boy KID DYNO


or check his antimix HERE

Statement Of Intent...

nice one to my boy 13 for pointing this one out.

Power Man & Iron Fist...

Paul Nice and Phill Most Chill are the Fabreeze Brothers and here's a snippet from their forthcoming single...
