went into work today only to find that Plug has comeout with a special
edition version of drumnbass for papa. Its the album plus a second disc
which is an EP, "versatile crib funk". I dont know if this ep has been
available elsewhere or not. here's the track listing if anyone is curious
as to whether or not theyve seen this before:
cut (97 plug remix)
brave lick
vesatile
tuf rinse
crib funk

Ive been waiting months and months and months for dnb for papa to come
out domestically, which it seemingly never will, so I went ahead and
picked up this version since it was the same price as the original. DAmn
good shit if you dont already have this album (it is pretty old I guess)

also, I heard the "misanthropic" 12" by alpha phryme (sp?), which is
vibert and another guy who raps. well, this shit is straight up AWFUL. it
was bad bad bad. music is nothing special, and the vocals are simply not
good. seems to me, vibert's hip hop side has always been below average on
first listen, but gets better each time you listen to it. in this case
though, I dont think I want to give it another chance, as the MC will
never go away.
anyways. enough for now.
