Cardiff based duo, 'Blue City CDF' have been a stone wall in Welsh and British Hip Hop since forming in late 2019, boasting a list of collaborations most people would give their right arm for.
"Boom bap at its finest" isn't a phrase I often find myself saying lately, especially when it comes to new music. However, the latest single from Bard Picasso Records prodigy 'BMellow' and DJ / Producer maestro 'Risk1' is something of a boom bap heaven!
SayKriDD Daly is a name who has been synonymous with Welsh Hip Hop since the early 2000's. Having created a plethora of classic albums and working with legends such as the likes of Jungle Brothers, Prince EA and Hard Target just to name a few.
Blue City CDF have been making noise in the UK for a couple of years now, having worked with the likes of Genesis Elijah, The Scribes and Jurassic 5's Akil The MC, they have now turned their focus on one of the leading boom bap producers in the country in High Focus Records' beat maestro, Pitch 92.
Bard Picasso Records have been as busy as ever this year. With releases packed to the gills of ridiculously good LP's, EP's and singles, its no wonder they are gaining traction in all corners of the UK, and even further afield. With a full rebrand coming soon, Bard Picasso have added firepower to their cannon with the addition of seven strong powerhouses "Eventual Ghosts"!
Hip Hop often gets mistaken for being simply “rapping” or “MCing” but deep, historic roots cemented firmly since the pioneering days of DJ Kool Herc will prove the contrary. Hip Hop is way more than just rhyming.

North West, Northentic Records natives, Karlow and Lomax are far from surplus to any requirements when it comes to Hip-hop. However, brand new 3 track EP "Surplus to Requirements" is out now on Bandcamp!
The Gallows, a place associated with execution, which is very apt for the latest single from the Northentic Records and Bard Picasso camps as the two sister labels perfectly execute one hell of a cypher!
Conjured from the depths of the spirit world, manifested through ancient chants and made tangible through ritualistic drum patterns, World of Ghosts, made up of rapper / producer duo Clarity and Context expose their true transparent forms through the art of Boom Bap.
K-Saulz, aka The Gobby Hobbit is Bard Picasso Records resident joker. A rapper who brightens the room with his infectious laughter and dad-joke style humour.
