Nemesis and Arrogance – Da Real Sho CD [Real Records]

Inspired by their radio show on Itch FM, Nemesis and Arrogance bring you Da Real Sho, their follow-up to 2007's excellent Lend Me Your Ears. On only four of the tracks here do N & A go it alone, many guests from the UK Hip Hop and Grime scenes grace the other tracks.

F.L.I.P. (Supar Novar, Big Ben and Rapper Ragz) crowd the booth on the urgent Spit Something, Don't Shoot Me features Wretch 32 (although this track is a little limp) and Mr. Ti2bs appears on Listen To Your Heart – one of the stand out tracks here.

Mr. Drastick rocks up on the synthy (but heavy) Let Go and star of their last album, SkinnyMan, does his thing on the stripped back North London Pt. 2 – another top tune from Nemesis, Arrogance and SkinnyMan. Faith SFX also does his best impression of drums and basses as the boys go in with some braggadocio bars.

At 20 full tracks long, a little whittling would have been useful here – together, at 1 hour and 20 minutes long and segmented with radio style shout outs and dialogue, the impact of the great tracks is lost somewhat.

Da Real Sho will be released on 15th June on Real Records. Get it now from their myspace page for a fiver!
