In a UK hip hop sea swimming with 10 a penny Myspace rappers there’s few albums I’ve been offered lately as strong as Manchester’s Forbidden Tongues- ‘Sketches In Black and White’.
For real.
Strong quality beats reminiscent, but not style biting, of that golden era sound. I might be wrong and I reckon he raised himself on a good diet of Wu Tang and EPMD. It’s definitely UK though.
Each featured artist sounds unique over well developed sounds.
Immediate stand outs are: ‘Tales From The Scrypt part 1’ featuring Fluid, for engaging story telling and emotion provoking beats and ‘Fallen Angels’ featuring Guilty and Brother Ghazi for good flow and nice hook.
