Quick Review: Lethal Bizzle - Go Hard

Lethal Bizzle

Go Hard

Search and Destroy

Lethal Bizzle has once again let himself down in the album department. Not only are the hooks weak, the concepts predictable and his nursery rhymes laughable at best, the cover artwork is also a pile of dog shizzle. At least the last album had a decent design. It’s very hard to pull something positive from this 16 track car crash – you’d think it would be the Mark Ronson track but no he ruins Lost My Mind by rapping – so just look for any songs which feature Donaeo. On one of those very tracks, Go Hard he rhymes, “Bizzle is back, that’s a warning,” he certainly is… avoid him at all costs.

Quick Review: Mr Hudson - Straight No Chaser

Mr Hudson

Straight, No Chaser

Mercury

Despite not being a fan of e-single White Lies, Ben Hudson’s sophomore long player was welcomed with open ears. Since …Two Cities many a tale can be told about his meteoric rise to Kanye-on-speed-dial-fame but with each track you can tell he’s still telling it straight; although Panama hats, rained-out golf dates and London living have been replaced with synth-rich pop ballads of misplaced love and romantic heartache. Regardless of its 46 minute length, it’s short and very sweet with lyrics and beats to match.

Quick Review: Wiley - Race Against Time

Artist: Wiley

Title: Race Against Time

Label: Eskibeat

For those fearing the Godfather was coming with another forced electro-follow-up LP fear not this is all-out 8 bar mêlée as far as the ear can hear. Yes, he’s back to what he does best, “Swinging in the market”??? For those hoping Wiley was finally going to drop a big album… we regret to inform you Eskiboy is a little way off. Glimpses of old include Off The Radar and Music I Like where he opens up over a piano rift and handclaps, but the whole mood is lowered during the poor track relapse in The Olly - which is a really bad attempt at a 90’s Ibiza club smash. Giggs and Tigga raise the levels with Zip It Up and in the Auto-tuned Time Flies By he addresses his previous label deal in one simple line, “I woulda been happy with the one lickle Rolex tune but the label they got too excited,” but overall this would be 1 out of 5 if it wasn’t for Where’s My Brother. Thank you Bless Beats.

Quick Review: Bashy - Catch Me If You Can

Artist: Bashy

Title: Catch Me If You Can

Label: GGI

To say this 17 track ALBUM is long overdue is an understatement as we’ve put up with half-focused underground mixtapes from Ashley Thomas for far too long. UR Mum – Vol.1, Chuppa Chups and Bashy.com didn’t really say much about the artist or his place in the industry… unlike Catch Me If You Can. There is nothing like a versatile, HMV, iTunes and radio-friendly LP to get you noticed (not saying that the bigness and controversy of Black Boys didn’t raise his profile of course).The N-Dubz collab is the prefect feel good track for the summer, Before Before is big, Millionaire will grow on you like the show itself, Your Wish… flipped EVERYTHING, meanwhile Ransom gives that extra bit of grit. Not sure about some of the hooks (especially that Autotune thing four tracks in) but really feeling the flow, lyrics and confidence of the next Black Boy to blow. A must for music fans and/ or wannabe music millionaires.
