Misfit Music - Button5 Album

So Manchester Hip Hop super group Misfit Music have released their new album Button5. Misfit Music members include Demz, Illatant, Notes, Kamo, Rick Charles and Briggzy. Button5 is almost a Mafia concept album, which is not a bad thing as it adds a unique 20s gangster feel to it, due to the mafia style in the skits, which I don't heard very often in Hip Hop releases. Misfit Music bring a level of swagger I'v not seen in a record for a long time, tracks like Get Em, Gentlemen's Club and So Crazy are all heavy tracks that will rip up the club. Symbol is an interesting track lyrically as its themed around superheroes, providing a great listen. My favourite track is Its Salford all down to its banging instrumental and cocky lyrics. Overall this album is a great listen and Manchester Hip Hop head will appreciate, throw your Ms in the air!

Briggzy - Toast To Rap Ft. Illatant Video

Briggzy brings us his latest video, Toast To Rap featuring fellow Misfit Music member Illatant, taken of his epic Gingerfication album this is the second track to be put onto video. The video is a sort of homage to Briggzy's music career so far in Hip Hop, featuring clips from his gig with Wu-Tang, images of his childhood and other memorable highlights for Briggzy. The video goes perfectly with track, which is about Briggzy's struggle. Toast To Rap is a great track that most fans will find a great listen, it also happens to be one of my favourite tracks to come out of the U.K. in a while. I'll toast to that.

Briggzy - Gingerfication

Briggzy is a Manchester Hip Hop/Rap artist from Salford signed to the Misfit Music record label. This is Briggzy's debut album and is eleven tracks long, it has a running time of 34 minutes and features various other artists such as Shotty Horror, Hoodman aka Tyler Daly, Illatant, Raptor, The Mend and Samir Harmim. The highlight tracks for me are Duck Down ft. Shotty Horror & Hoodman, a straight up Hip Hop classic, Gingerfication Love, a track that shows Briggzy doesn't take himself to seriously, Home, this is a powerful track that most people will be able to relate to. For me the stand out track is Rest Of Me, this is possibly Briggzy's most passionate track yet and a nice round off to Gingerfication. All in all this is a great album that most people will be able to relate to. There are fun tracks, party tracks and heartfelt tracks, there's something for everyone to enjoy.
