FloorFiller Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 (edited) Posted in the new music thread but figured it might get noticed more here by people interested. The new Saba album Care For Me is incredible. Best rap release I've heard this year by far. Edited April 14, 2018 by FloorFiller 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 (edited) Cheers for that. I had seen his album getting good reviews but hadn't bothered because I had him confused with someone else that I wasn't too keen on. I'll check it out now.

priest17 Posted April 16, 2018 Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 Dunno if anyone's checked out the latest Dr Octagon album but it's brill. Great feature from Paul Banks on this song and there's a great Deltron 3030 appearance elsewhere as well, worth a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this, Czarface/DOOM and PRhyme were all esteemed hip hop collaborations that were kind of unfairly overlooked this last month. Got to say though, I don't dig Paul Banks on that track. As much as I love Interpol and recognise that the man is living out his dreams, I'm not crazy about his forays into the hip hop world.

The Czarface/DOOM one didn't grab me to be fair but I've still got a saved to go back to over time. Love DOOM, still not entirely sure on Czarface, some of the overly pop culture references sounded odd on the first couple of listens. I like him every now and then, and love Interpol, but I never go back to any of the Banks and Steelz stuff though (except maybe the hot ones interview) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesecretingredientiscrime Posted April 16, 2018 Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 Romesh Ranganathan does a decent podcast called hip hop saved my life, which features a different celebrity unsurprisingly talking about hip hop and their life. He gets some decent people on and it usually throws up decent recommendations, he recommends a record an episode normally, the doom/czarface one being recent.

dentalplan Posted August 31, 2018 Report Share Posted August 31, 2018 Got an email off Afropunk wanting to sell me tickets to see August Greene (Common, Richard Glasper, Karriem Riggins), Akala and Laura Mvula at Brixton for a discount price of about £12. Not one for me but here’s the link if anyone else is interested. Says that it’s that price for only the next 48 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon there's a great chance we see him at the festival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw him in London the other week and it was really good. To say the crowd was up for it was an understatement, mosh pits breaking out when the DJ was playing tracks before he came on ? Sadly delays getting people in meant A2 in support was reduced to a couple of tracks. He's my favourite in the scene right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaturalWine Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) Octavian tracks are decent also Slowthai who I saw and spoke to yesterday in London. My main artist who I always go to see is Casisdead! Really thought he would have been booked in 2017 , but next year is definitely all his !

Mr_Egregious Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 Hope Loyle Carner is there in 2019. Missed him in 2017 because I was planning on seeing him at Bestival... then when they closed the Bestival site for a couple of hours on the Sunday his set got the chop. Really liking his new one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 I thought the production on Spaceman was off the scale, but wasn’t all that impressed by Octavian’s lyrical content or delivery or anything. Will stick with him though because he’s clearly got an ear for a banger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He so flexible as well, from slow songs to grime/drill bangers. Soon as i heard 'Party Here', my ears pricked up and been following him since.

t0paz Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 Seeing as RTJ have now got a new track out and the 4th album can't be far behind, what chance of them being back on the farm? Ideally in a night time slot this time. In an ideal world someone will persuade Q-Tip to do one more 'last ever' Tribe set to replace the one he had to miss last time, but I somehow doubt it.

I can't see it happening next year. They were there in 2015 and 2017. 2015's performance on West Holts was great but the Pyramid time slot didn't do them any favours in terms of audience. Would love to see Tribe headline WH. Edited October 12, 2018 by EZYSEY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the issue with the 2017 performance? I was at both 2015 and 2017 and don't recall there being any kind of drop off in audience or performance from a personal level.

I know what you mean but they're getting pretty big and if the new album does well they'd get a big crowd. I also think they realise what it does for their profile and would want to do it.
