Foreign Beggars
United Colours of Beggatron
Dented
Foreign Beggars have been around for sometime now and with United Colours of Beggatron I'm sure their reputation will continue to advance.
This LP is a really cool fusion of modern soul, dubstep and drum and bass which is cleverly pieced together under the broader umbrella of Hip Hop and Rap.
There is much to enjoy on this project which combines well produced creative beats with imaginative rhymes. Some impressive guests feature too such as Detroit's very own Phat Kat on Big N' Black and the excellent Guilty Simpson (Stonesthrow) on Prove it. I particularly like the inclusion of female vocalist Audra Nishata on the LP. Break Free has nice musical hook from Audra accompanied with a beat that could be best described as a Dilla-esque. Audra also features on one of my favourites tracks the melodic Higher.
The production is generally on point and tracks like the big sounding Contac' ft the appropriately named Noisia is a good example of this. in fact there are plenty of club bangers on this LP. I can definitely see myself playing out tracks like Keep it coming in a heaving club, the track features Uk stallwarts Dr Syntax, Jehst and Kyza who rock the beat with their established professionalism.
This has to be one of the freshest Hip Hop releases I've heard coming out of the UK in 2009.
