The Bluntskins - Bluntskins Album

The Bluntskins are the newest Manchester Hip Hop crew to hit the streets. Consisting of T.N.C's Bill Sykes, Mothership Connection's Cheech the Grim Reefer and beat master Pro P you already know that these guys are not to be fucked with. With ever track on the album being a tribute to gods green friend this is defiantly one to sit back on a Friday, roll a fatty with your bros, puff, puff, pass until your feeling the reefer madness. Musically this is a master piece from start to finish, with Pro P using samples from Terence McKenna speeches, Ali G & more it makes an interesting listen. Some great MCs feature including D'Lyfa Reilly, Wordz, Black Josh, C Aye Monk, Goshin, Spider Jaroo, Legion, Sparkz, Dubble O & more the levels are through the roof lyrically. After the first sitting I was left dazed and confused, it's a masterpiece. How high we're they when they recorded this? I think they were still feeling it the next Friday and the Friday after next.

Dubbul O - Spooky Caravan (Prod. Kydro) Video

Dubbul O is part of the awesome Mothership Connection who have been tearing apart the underground Manchester Hip Hop scene with there static live performances. This tune is fucking insane, the beat is next level and the lyrics are out of this world. The video itself is one of the best I'v seen in a long time. I love the all round trippy nature of it and all of its crazy shots! Also its filmed in my favourite location Antwerp Mansion. Enjoy :)

Mothership Connection - Emitape 420

Manchester Hip Hop collective Mothership Connection released this classic piece of music on April 20th, A.K.A. 420 for those who understand the link. Mothership is comprised of Dubbul O, Legion, Cheech the Grim Reefa, Goshin and Cheyenne. Each one of these valuable members combined gives the psychedelia funky hip hop madness that you hear blasting through speakers! It's been a long time since I'v listened to a release back to back seven times but Emitape 420 is an excellent release, I literately cannot stop listening to this. Some of the stand out tracks include In Time featuring Marvs, The Shadows and Funkadelica, but to pick out tracks suggests the others are weaker. Not the case here, every track is utterly banging! Did I mention its a free download? Hell yerr!
