Used to be right into him, beats were sick and his lyrics were pretty thoughtful as well.
Saw him live at Herbal one night, completely ruined himself, turned up late, absolutely smashed, chatted shit on the mic n tried to freestyle but ended up rambling for 2 minutes mixing up words of raps he had already released. Pretended to Kick someone in the crowd and fell over at which point Rodney P took him off stage.
He's not really done anything special since then.
Still, gotta love the old shit though!

Council Estate Of Mind is the one. Was listening to it the other day...His social commentary is so clever. That man knows how his world works, and expresses it perfectly.
I want a new album from him.

Another album with the levels of council estate of mind would be wat ukhh needs, however i would rather him leave it if its gonna be some bait shit with bad production and meaningless lyrics. hopefully his long absence has given him time to write some fiyah!

from what i've heard he peaked in about 2001.
saw him onstage about 3 years back, he was garbage.

He is a crackhead, My mate ran a £500 cash battle rap thing in brighton and he hosted it....
It was his birthday and he was on a sick vibe the night was heavy.
Come the end of the night skinnys in the vip room ripping pipes.....( birthdays and carnival are the only days you can smoke pipe really haha,)
bless him hope he comes back with something big...
I think he 's a jehovas witness?
maybe hes on the straight and narrow...i hope so, big up your self skinny.

Just took a butchers at his website and there's a forum on there....someone asked about a new album back in March....his reply was that there's one just around the corner.
