Silent Eclipse - How Many Miles back to London / MC's

"..Some said british hiphop is dead, some said we gone to far off the edge, some said the lights ain't green, they're on red, now they're wondering....How Many Miles Back to LONDON?.."

Got this on a white label in 1991 and loved the raw, budget sound. Loved the B line ripped from Eric B & Rakim's "Know the Ledge". Both sides of this 12" got pretty good airplay on UK hiphop radio shows, but Silent Eclipse (MCD) never really lived up to this initial release for me.

Chil Ali - Check My Record

"..I'm armed and dangerous every second, the proof is in the pudding, Check my record.."

Taking from Chi Ali's debut (and only) 1992 LP "The Fabulous Chi Ali". Not the best lyrical performance, but the Beatnuts smashed it and produced a stone cold classic LP.

Gang Starr - Check theTechnique

Taken from Step in the Arena, my fav hip hop LP of all time. Still stands up today as an amazing amalgam of a MC and DJ on top form. Many better writers than me have waxed poetical about this album, but this is one of the pieces of music that has had the biggest influence on my life, along with "Jazz Thing - Gand Starr" and "Rebel without a Pause - Public Enemy". It's something that the first time you heard it, it blew your mind, not just because of how great it was, but how it completely changed the whole game and your own preconceptions.

Inspired to write this by all the hype surrounding the ill health of Keith Elam. Get well soon brother...

Eric B and Rakim - No Omega

"..Rhyme everlastin, there’ll be no part two
Knowledge is infinite, once I start to draw
A better picture for your third eye, if you’re blind
You know with a mic, I’m a black michaelangelo.."

The greatest MC of all time...
