Something that Giles (& myself as well) have been biggin up is
the new lp Upward from Ty which is out this week in the UK & probably
most of Europe & States. Its not only because I've worked with Ty, but his
performance at this year's Big Chill was superb with a full band,
back up singers & DJ Bizznizz was the beginning of a rainfree August.
A lot of people have trouble getting their heads around UK hip hop
but this definitely has an acid jazzualbrokenbeat west Londonbent &
once you hear "Wait A Minute" its the kinda track you just cant get
out of your head. At least I havent.
"Upwards" check the music:
