My third track of the month comes from an MC from Wolverhampton called, Movez. The StayFresh member sent me this track a little while ago, but it’s become somewhat of a regular feature on my iTunes playlist. The bassy, Screama-produced hip-hop production compliments Movez’ skippy flow. Definitely one of my favourite MCs from the Midlands right now.
2. SP Feat. Funtcase – Let’s Play (Gorrila Flex Remix)
Another MC who has impressed me from the Midlands is SP, hailing from Birmingham. He has teamed up with Funtcase, who produced the track, for this dubstep head-banger. If you like dark, dirty, dubstep that you can shake a leg to, then you’ll enjoy this one!
1. TRACK OF THE MONTH: Dot Rotten – Resurrect Young Dot
My number one track this month comes from south London grime MC, Dot Rotten. This lyricist has been around for many years now and having just been snapped up by Mercury Records, he’s about to be around for a little while longer! When I heard Resurrect Young Dot, I found myself screwing up my face like if I was at a grime rave in 2006. It took me back to a place of how I used to feel when I heard grime back in the day – excited! Dot Rotten was also called Young Dot, so we see him bringing back his grime self on this track, proving that he can still do that hard grime, even though you might see him dabble in a bit of mainstream stuff here and there.
SCOTTISH TRACK OF THE MONTH: Hector Bizerk – Burst Love
Scottish hip-hop lyricism on top form. Simple.
